It is just pathetic that 56.5% of the site would choose a far-right lunatic for a political office over a conservadem because of "muh pandering" and "muh Oil".

... Palin isn't far-right. Americans know jack about the 'far-right'.
Conservative on more than 55% of issues=far right
I was parodying a Wulfric quote on the irc
Ah. Consider that un-deluged.

Actually, I never said that. I said that I agree with parts of both parties' agendas, and some other people tried to assign a 55%/45% balance (some gave the edge to the republicans, others to the democrats) to it. I never said such percentages were wrong, but I also never explicitly said they were accurate.

I'm sorry, IceSpear, but your demands to exclude parts of the democratic field from the polling are bad, bad, bad:

>Including Warren
>Including Cuomo
>Including Gillibrand
>Including "wouldn't vote" (what)

On Ron Paul attending Rand Paul's campaign launch:

I was surprised that the media did not mention that in some shows today.

A composite of Presidential elections, 1976 and 1992-2012:



 
Deep red -- Democrats win every Presidential race. 248
Medium red -- Democrats win all but one Presidential race. 15
White -- always went with the winner 22
Pale blue -- went for the winner in all election, but in that exception went for the Republican 38
Yellow -- twice Democratic, but seeming to now drift Democratic 13
Green -- twice Democratic but seeming to drift Republican (Missouri in a light shade because Obama was close in 2008, others deep green) 38/48
Medium blue -- Republicans win all but one Presidential race. 56
Deep blue --Republicans win every Presidential race. 98

NE-02 is the middle box in Nebraska even if the district is Greater Omaha.

Mass dissatisfaction with the Republican party is strong outside core GOP areas. Republicans will need either a catastrophic failure of the Obama Administration or a quickly-forming cultural trend (like a right-wing religious revival) in most Blue (Atlas Red) states to create an opportunity.

OK, one might trade Nevada for Iowa... but that leaves the Republican nominee with several must-win states (Colorado, Virginia, Ohio, Florida, North Carolina), none of which will be certain.

The winner of the Democratic nomination gets the Obama campaign apparatus intact. 

Apparently only Democrats voted in the 1976 election.

And he doesn't even get it right for them, as Carter's TX 1976 win is not noted.

There would be some risks. Another high-profile candidate might decide to go with a similar strategy, and get all the attention (IE- Condoleeza Rice, Susanna Martinez or Mitt Romney.) Other candidates might take off leaving less spots available in the top ten. And he might be a bit out of practice (part of the reason Thompson and Perry didn't get the nomination.)

Mitt Romney has less interest in running for President than Elizabeth Warren does. Plain and simple.

If Clinton can take the West, like California, and New York and the Industrial Midwest, she can win the nomination. If a Keith Ellison, Steve Bullock, or Evan Bayh jumps in, she'll have a brokered convention.

Jerry Brown, oddly enough, could take the entire West from Alaska to California to Montana to Arizona and give himself or Biden the industrial Midwest. If someone can keep anyone from emerging as the front-runner, it's Biden.

Someone's been living under a rock.

The Democrats need to play hardball here and outright refuse to work with the Republican Party as they are unfit to govern. All Democratic Presidential candidates should be required to sign a pledge saying they will not invite any Republican Congressional leaders to the White House for the next 4 years, acknowledge any questions shouted by them during the State of the Union, make any eye contact with any of them in passing, and automatically veto anything they try to sponsor. It's time to really drill this issue to the forefront of the news cycle how truly incompetent and unworthy of anyone's respect these people are.

I think we have to ask ourselves as a nation if we want a President who can't be loyal to his/her political party. If we can't trust Donald Trump to be loyal to the Republican Party, how can we expect him to be loyal to the country? He claims he's "loyal to a fault" but look at his marriages, look at how he is treating people who he previously supported - namely Rand Paul - in this campaign. Now this.

Gerrymandering (which is partially natural due to Democrats packing into cities) helps the people, as it allows most people to be represented by people who share their values.

Yes, because everyone is an extreme republican like yourself. Roll Eyes

He tells it like it is, is legitimately better on policy than any of the other GOP candidates, and is generally an entertaining, charismatic individual.  I like how he's stuck it to the GOP establishment as well as many other sad hypocrites.  I love the bombast.  We also seem to broadly have similar worldviews, he just happens to be nationalist for a different country. 

But most of all I support him because it's hilarious to see how hysterical his opponents on here get when I say that I do.

Tell us why you wouldn't vote for TRUMP. Say what you will about Violent Socialist, but he gave his reasoning. You just shouted "NO!" without saying anything else.

- TRUMP brags about his wealth and can't understand the struggles of middle class america.
- TRUMP lacks specifics on several issues, and thinks he's running for King.
- TRUMP opposes ObamaCare.
- TRUMP is anti-immigrant, racist against hispanics, enjoys demonizing women who aren't PC around him, and won't consistently denounce the KKK.
- TRUMP is a failure who has been bankrupt several times, and is thus worse than even most Partisan Democrats when it comes to commitment to keeping the deficit down and ultimately balancing the budget, a critical issue to me.
- And ultimately, the fact that TRUMP has rewritten his entire political ideology over the last few years makes it impossible to really know what he'll do in office.

No. Feminism is based on lies and hypocrisy, and it has had disastrous effects on Western civilization.

https://exposingfeminism.wordpress.com/the-ten-most-common-feminist-myths/

http://www.leaderu.com/orgs/probe/docs/ten-lies.html

http://www.fixthefamily.com/sermons/feministlies

https://www.thetrumpet.com/article/2384.24.84.0/society/family/how-feminism-harms-families

Women are not ''oppressed'' in modern Western society. The ''gender pay gap'' is a myth, and you can find numerous articles online which show that to be the case. More women than men are employed. More women than men are graduating from college. The public school system gives girls preferential treatment. False rape allegations are common, and have ruined many men's lives. Women get shorter jail sentences than men for the same crimes.  The list goes on and on.

Feminism is pure evil. Feminism is part of a war on men, nature, and the family (the building block of our civilization). Feminism has resulted in the evil, barbaric slaughter of millions of innocent unborn children. Feminism has resulted in a huge increase in broken, unstable, and unhappy families. Feminism glorifies pursuing self-gratification at the expense of morality and personal responsibility. The list goes on and on.

A patriarchal society is a successful, prosperous society.

Maybe it's time someone said "I feel sorry for black any people who believe Hillary Clinton."

Sorry, OC, but a state having "West" in its name doesn't automatically mean it's located in the Mountain West.

You're right- she isn't a moderate.  She is just a liberal.  Less liberal than Democrats, but still a liberal.  Being pro-abortion automatically puts one into the liberal camp, as the position is so ridiculous and extreme that it can't even fit into a moderate viewpoint.

LOL. I guess Mark Kirk is a Democrat now? And Bruce Rauner?

If I was DNC chair, I would make getting back WV a top priority. Make it very clear that anti-coal democrats are in the wrong, in fact, kick them out of the party if they won't change their views. Make being pro-coal one of the first things the democratic platform lists, and stress its importance. Apologize over and over again in TV ads for your pure stupidity, recklessness, and destruction of jobs in being anti-coal. Say that you are thankful for the punishment the state gave the democratic party, and have learned from it.

The National Democratic party's coal position is WRONG! JOBS, JOBS, JOBS!

There's rational panicking, and then there's panicking when the poll shows your candidate up by 7.

Trump was leading? After the first debate? And people think he's not going to pull ahead by next month, after weeks of Trump's smear campaign against Clinton which apparently the joke state of WI is so eager to buy into? LOL

Trump will win WI, IA, OH and probably the election. I'm not following this race anymore. Just don't care.
