Speaking of, I have no idea why Andrew Napolitano still has a paid gig when absolutely nothing he's predicted based on his "sources" has come to pass. Dude was talking for months about how his "sources" told him the FBI was moving to indict, how there were 150 agents on the case, and how a public corruption investigation had been opened up. We know now the number agents was more like 12, and the most reliable info is that there's "scant evidence" of any criminality.

And yet still Napolitano has a paid gig writing shit he's obviously making up himself, and he still gets op-eds on the front page of realclearpolitics.

H.A. Goodman is going to be living under a bridge well before the end of Hillary's first term.

One shouldn't hold their breath on that front. I've never once believed he'd be willing to do that. He's going back to Vermont and he's changing his party affiliation as soon as possible. That's what I expect him to do. Would like to be proven wrong but nothing I've seen even suggest that he'd willingly stick around.

He's up there with Mark Halperin who has been wrong on nearly every one of his "predictions" (and continues to make shitty predictions like Trump taking California in the GE and Clinton choosing a Republican VP). Halperin not only has a job, but he makes $1 million a year for doing it.

Any moron can write an OPed, there's no rule what you right has to be right. If there were the OPed section of the WSJ couldn't exist.

It was easy to see Jeb would never be the nominee. Just look at the way he carries himself.

Awful delivery, faked smile, awkward facial expressions. Even in the first minute you can see it.

He's terrible. And for all the revisionist history about how outsiders just don't understand, how he dominated Florida politics, etc...let's be real. Everyone knew he was a Bush, everyone did their part to put him in position to run for president, etc. He had every break, every advantage, etc. Jeb was never a noteworthy politician,

Yea Mitt Romney was awkward too...but Mitt Romney looked like a president, and sounded like one too. There was a level of gravitas to him. Whereas Jeb Bush looks and acts like a goofball.

In seems that states where there are no Bernie supporters, Hillary is doing extremely well in the polls which is a very positive sign for when the Bernie voters fall in line in a couple of weeks.

edit: Bernie almost got 30% in Georgia and that is better than his other southern states so maybe this theory is wrong!

Yeah, Jeb was truly one of the worst-prepared politicians I've ever seen. I give him kudos for being the only one who called Trump on his racist, misogynistic garbage on a regular basis, but other than that, he offered absolutely nothing.

Not beholden to special interests tho

Edit: how does this work. Obviously he can't give 100 million to trump. Does it go to a PAC? Does he just spend it himself on ads?

Also the fact that grid scaling back congressional giving is delicious.
Click to expand...

Yeah, in some ways Adelson taking money from the RNC to give to Trump is actually the best possible outcome.

What, Bernie delegates were not registered Dems? Why, that would be as crazy as Bernie not being a registered Dem.

I know the feeling, still have lingering post-nasal drip from a nasty cold a couple of weeks ago. The record pollen made it way worse than normal.

That potential and Sanders potentially forcing his agenda on the party is valid enough reason to continue to run. It's not hurting anything, and if it reshuffles the D party then so be it. I've been involved with Dems for 16+ years now, and I think that if Sanders wants to try and change things up then I'm all for that. It would be a move in the direction I would like to see the party go.
Click to expand...
Regardless of whether you agree or disagree with Sanders, the democratic party/Hillary should take note of his supporters and what attracts them to his campaign. After the economic crash, America became significantly more polarized. I'd say a significant portion of the population shifted to ideological extremes which resulted in OWS and the Tea party. I think it's important that Hillary and Democrats next election cycle try to better appeal and incorporate what that crowd desires. His campaign has proven there is a decent amount of the American population that is not afraid of the word socialism. Although no democrat should label themselves a socialist if they are trying to actually win an election. Also that a fair amount of them were independent voters, not democratic. He also brought out a significant amount of millenials. While he was never going to appeal to the south, I felt he made inroads with southern white people that other Democratic candidates have not been able to win over. Not saying that anyone should follow how he ran his campaign. I believe that smarter democrats in the future will come along and be able to take advantage of some of the groundwork Sanders established. At least I hope with the momentum Obama has created in the past 2 years and a significant push to the left by a portion of the American population that HRC will be able to keep the momentum rolling.

Just how divided people were about the next possible Republican candidate gave Trump the opening.
Click to expand...

If there's one thing Republicans can learn from Democrats is how to prime viable presidential candidates. After 2012, Republicans spent their entire energy trying to destroy HRC instead of building up a candidate of their own. It's always seemed to me that Democrats have a few candidates that they began priming for the position years in advance. Democrats need to learn how to operate as a team. It was terrible how most democratic candidates ran from Obama instead of unifying behind him and having his back when he has been president. In terms of local elections, the Democratic party needs to step it up and defend their decisions instead of letting republicans control the narrative.

Reading a paper that cites a survey where only 1/4 of white people would live in a neighborhood where the population was 15% black or higher and I want to die.
Click to expand...

15% is pretty low, you gotta be way out in the burbs or live in a super white city like Seattle or something to achieve that, no? I imagine most big cities exceed that.

Good luck with that lol.

Yeah Sander supporters showed their entire ass and are losing grip of reality. Hillary won the popular vote but since they think if they shout the loudest and keep on with that tired line that hes the "will of the people" that everything should flip to him. It was pathetic and I cant wait for his revolution to go back in the hole it came out of.

So tired of dealing with ~~true progressives~~

Look at Roberta Lange's Twitter.

Several motions on the floor for a recount. Basically ignored voice votes, shut down convention. Pretty much shit all over the process. It's not good.

Never seen anything like that.

Voice votes are bullshit. If the Bernie guys are trying to overturn the official results then she should shut it all down.
