ITT: Clinton hacks suggesting that PA (which they insist is always unwinnable for any Republican because inelasticity!) would suddenly somehow vote for Trump/Palin over a Democrat who is polling as well as or better than Hillary in most polls.

I assume you also view the polls  from a few months back showing Ben Carson crushing Hillary as realistic? Because Sanders has received the same amount of scrutiny that Carson had at that time.

That's false. Anybody who's paid a shred of attention to this election cycle knows who Sanders is.

Sanders would be a terrible candidate in the general. Sure, the early numbers look really good for Sanders, but there is a lot of opposition research that Trump could destroy him with. Plus, I'm not confident that a frail old man who allows a microphone to be snatched from his hands is at all up to the task of winning. Turnout would be low with such an unappealing match up and low turnout benefits Republicans.

Oh, I don't know. Maybe he allowed BLM to take the microphone because he can tolerate opposing viewpoints, unlike you Shillary hacks?

Anyone who thinks Trump has a chance in the general election is kidding themselves.

They were saying the same thing about the Republican primaries.

You do realize that nobody outside of the TRUMP echo chamber takes him seriously?

Tolerating opposing points of view doesn't mean you allow people to snatch the microphone from you. Only uncivilized people jump on the stage and snatch microphones. No candidate should condone that sort of behavior.

The microphone was not 'snatched' from Sanders. Security could have easily removed the protesters from the event if they wanted to.

Trump is far less of an ideological extremist than Sanders. Anyone who seriously believes Sanders has more appeal to swing voters than Trump is delusional.

Apologies if I get too hackish, but Trump isn't a moderate if he focuses only on his policies that are farthest to the right (foreign policy, immigration).

Trump is hardly on the far right when it comes to foreign policy. Other than the irrelevant Rand Paul, he is the only GOP candidate who isn't a neocon.

Fair enough, but still. He focuses on "BUILD THE WALL", "BAN ALL MUSLIMS", and "SHUT DOWN THE INTERNET". There is no way that is electable.

Are you tone deaf? Calling out racism isn't complaining. The term "blaxicasian" is a perfect example of subtle racism. Lumping all non-whites together into one stupid little term as if they all vote in a bloc, as if all their issues are the same is racist. And using the term "white hero" in this context is very suspect, just like when Republicans said they needed a white hero to defeat Obama.

Do you understand?

Nothing is racist here. Blaxicasians = minorities. Do you think the word "minorities" is racist too ?

"White hero" are words to describe Hillary's lack of appeal among Whites, which Bernie has. And if you have broader appeal among Whites, it's probably easier to win the GE - because Sanders would bring roughly the same amount of minority voters to the polls as Hillary, after being endorsed by other major Dems.

Not hard to understand.

Both of you guys are wrong. The end.
