Hillary will emerge at one of the debates accompanied by a large black goat, and her opening statement will begin . . . "Black Phillip, Black Phillip A crown grows out his head, Black Phillip, Black Phillip To nanny queen is wed . . ."

Horseshit,
Nothing indicates they're going to go to the Green party in polling, so either we're looking at more low youth voter turnout or we're looking at silent Dem voters. That's it. I can't be worried about people who aren't voting and have nothing to assume they'll go third. So what, embarrassed Dems?

I think we're just looking at frustrated and devoted Sanders supporters. Give them time and they'll mostly back Clinton

What exactly is the endgame of this whole "roll out enough superdelegates to hit 2383 early" strategy, anyway?

The media narrative would shift to Clinton being the presumptive nominee instead of the front runner. Substantively, Bernie would still stay in until the last state, but his coverage would be greatly diminished.

Yeah, I'm extremely not worried about Sanders supporters now. Give them time to lick their wounds (as they deserve to, it was a hard fought race) and then come stan for the queen.

IIRC the last poll that checked found that 9% of Clinton voters would vote Trump if Sanders won, although they've not polled for this in a while for obvious reasons. As a rule of thumb, 10% of any demographic are crazy.

edit: Don't think you understood the poll there!

That's 7% Bernie supporters would vote Trump if Bernie won.

This is different though, 7% of Sanders supporters would vote for Trump over Sanders. How does that figure?

Most probably people who never bothered/forgot to change their registration and so were eligible to vote in the Democratic primaries/ineligible to vote in the Republican primaries, but are actually Republican now. You can see similar artifacts in the 2008 polling and so on, and you also see it on the Republican side from time to time.

(another reason that closed primaries are bad)

Same here. It's why I tried my best not to paint with a broad stroke and always only talked about the small subset that sullied discussion/reason.

Sorry if this has been talked about, but I just found out the exact extent of Trump's prior Clinton support, and it's extensive.

http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/24/opini...nion-obeidallah/?iid=ob_lockedrail_bottomlist

He called Linda Tripp the "personification of evil." He called Hillary a terrific woman as recently as 2012. He donated between 100,000 and 250,000 to the Clinton Foundation. I mean, what is there to attack her on? E-mails?

Is this going end up hurting him, or do you thing he can land these punches?

It doesn't hurt him when he changes positions mid sentence, so...I'm guessing no. The way to answer him giving her money in 2008 is just to say that he knew Obama would be a disaster, and while Hillary would be terrible, she couldn't have been as bad as the Muslin in Chief has been!111one.

Dude's teflon. His previous opinions and positions don't matter at all...cause he always tells it like it is, even if "is" is totally subjective and changes periodically.

Think this just all shows that a lot of these people will "come home" and vote for Hillary in the end. They're not moving to Trump at all.

Amazing. 7% of Sanders supporters would vote Trump even if Sanders is his opponent.

Too meta for me.

Angry Grimace

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
The problem with Trump is that all of his appeal is the "Tell It Like It Is" factor, which works a lot less well when your opponent is willing to tell you that you're wrong.

Trump plans to target Clinton over Whitewater

Trump campaign adviser Michael Caputo on Wednesday morning emailed a researcher at the Republican National Committee asking him to “work up information on HRC/Whitewater as soon as possible. This is for immediate use and for the afternoon talking points process.”
Story Continued Below

The email was obtained by POLITICO when Trump campaign spokeswoman Hope Hicks, who Caputo copied on his request to the RNC, accidentally responded instead to Marc Caputo, a POLITICO reporter who is not related to the Republican consultant.

Top work by the Trump campaign, just real great stuff.

She could run positive ads entirely on things he's said. This is going to be a very interesting election.

The 7% lol, too high to have changed so radically between whenever they voted in the primary till May that they now would vote Trump regardless of whether it was Sanders on the ticket or not. This primary season needs to be over.

For Everyone:

Fiscally I'm A Right-Wing Nutjob, But On Social Issues I'm Fucking Insanely Liberal [The Onion]

For Benji:

Take finances. It is my opinion that all taxes whatsoever should be abolished, and that everything relating to money in any way should be privatized, including the minting of coinage. Thus, each American should have his own system of currency and his own bank named after him to maintain that currency, and anyone whose personal currency system fails in the unfettered free market should be left to die bleeding and penniless in the street, with his family crying helplessly at his side. Also, corporations should be able to buy whatever and whomever they want, and at the end of every year the richest and most powerful corporation should be allowed to physically demolish 15 other corporations that it wishes to see destroyed, murdering all of the various employees of said corporations in any way it sees fit. I guess you could say I'm a fucking nutcase conservative when it comes to this kind of stuff, but I do believe it's an ideology that has its limits.

For Adam:

For example, when it comes to a social issue like gay rights, my opinion is that gays and lesbians should be afforded extra rights under the law, as I believe they are descended from an immortal race of beings whom we must revere as the ancient Sumerians would have revered their god An. All Americans should spend four hours of every workday erecting elaborate temples in which to worship our omnipotent homosexual overlords, and we all must sacrifice ourselves willingly upon the altar of the gay and lesbian community, everyone of us, including children, who, by the way, I think should be eligible to drink, drive, and vote from age four on up.
