I'm sure Hillary would love that.

Although I'll take any win this November, naturally, I'd be pretty depressed if Trump even comes within a few percentage points from winning.

Speech was a huge hit with voters, only 10% said they didn't like it:

If that poll was representative, then American history was written tonight.

Isn't really going to matter and this is the thing, the electoral college is a gift to Democrats. National office, i.e. POTUS is something that is going to get harder and harder for the GOP to win. Cruz is gonna get blacklisted though, I wouldn't be shocked to see him lose his seat in my great state. People are pissed and they hold a grudge.
I'm expecting 08 or better.

I'm glad I live in Canada where we tend to reject politicians that peddle fear and nothing else

It's not, it's been explained a couple times in this thread. The pollster explaining it o nCNN explained.
'Speech watchers' is heavily self-selecting.

Those instant polls tend to lead heavily Republican though.
We'llhave to wait until early August to see what's really going on. Too much noise right now.
It isn't
Those same voters already ordered trump about 25 points about national polling pre-speech.
Normally you want to be in the 75-80% approval like you would with a state of the union.

Who watches the RNC other than Republicans and Democrats playing drinking games?
Answer is Republicans, of course you are going to get that poll result.

My friend who was a hardcore Bernie Sanders supporter now says they're going vote Trump.
I literally don't get it.
Nope, and neither should you. Or anyone.

It was soooo good, I miss it so much.
Hopefully Bernie's hot fire during the convention will speak some sense into them. Or not because for anyone who switches it was never about policy.

Is that Jon Stewart clip on youtube yet? I can't find it 
edit: Oh, I guess it hasn't even aired on the west coast, huh. I don't understand tv schedules anymore

Gall dang goosebumps. What a speech.
Cruz is going to have a fun time trying to appeal to literally anyone other than hardcore evangelicals.
I hope your friend is part of the 1% because if they're not, they're fucked.
Finally found a video of the CNN conversation afterward, but it's a really crappy off-tv recording.

edit: looks like it's only part of it anyway

oh?
I didn't know we had actual video footage of Hyuga and Vikki...
Basically shut them down when they were citing crime and immigration "facts" from Trump's speech and basically calling them out on them.
Got to the point where the Trump supporter and regular trump leaning pub were whining that the reporters there had an obvious bias and shouldn't be listened to.

I'm still not gonna say they've fucked
Damn! Deserves its own thread TBH.
There was never an election I wish Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report could of been around more then this one. Bittersweet.
And he's just admitted to wearing the same underwear(and socks) for days.

wtf
Donald Told No Less Than 21 Fact Checked Proven Lies During His Acceptance Speech
Not sure if this was posted earlier but hot damn. The man lies in every word.

That's not a lot for a 5 hours speech
There weren't a lot of facts to check, either.

I now have at least one thing in common with Donald Trump..... we both want to bang his daughter.
They never liked Bernie. They just like the idea of a disruption in the political body and don't care who gets the fallout
Now they're going on and on about how corrupt Hilary is and basically she's the devil so Trump is automatically better.
