Am I doing it right, guys?


Nope. Hillary had far less opposition from her own party in the form of number of candidates. It's called vote stealing, Democrats had less candidates, therefore lower chances of Vote Stealing from similar candidates. Less choice = more votes for remaining candidates to share.

Trump was more likely to be the victim of vote stealing by sheer number of candidates that ran. And of cause even then Bernie got somewhat screwed over, inflating Clinton's numbers by intimidating voters into thinking "there's no other choice, Clinton or nothing".....

:roll: She had a much stronger candidate running against her than any of the wet noodles running in the Republican party. Higher votes, higher proportion. By any measure her primary performance was much stronger than Trump or Bernie, and she had a better convention. Dems still remember that. I was still hoping for a last second Bernie miracle, the the Dems shored up their base at the convention. We are excited, mobilized, and have a ground game. The rallies mean shit compared to that. Hillary ran a campaign, not a sideshow.

Bernie didn't get screwed over by the way. He did very well to advance the progressive cause. People need to stop acting like losing is a form of getting screwed over. Defeat is something that happens to everybody.

What are you talking about? The GOP lineup during the primaries was actually pretty good. Rubio, Cruz, Carson, all of these guys represented their party factions fairly reasonably and they still have promising futures with or without a Trump presidency. Carson in particular could even be America's next Surgeon General.
#14729411
Cruz was pretty much an upstart populist before Trump took over the race. If liberals thought Trump was bad, they haven't seen anything compared to when Cruz will inevitably align himself with the rage created by four years of Hillary Clinton. This is the guy who will punish America in 2020 with something a lot closer to actual fascism if Donald Trump loses in 2016.

Sure colliric, we'll remember your prophecy.

Ryan will run too, so we'll have a great show during the Republican primaries again I guess.

However, it won't be such fun without the Donald.
#14729420
Ryan will be the president after Clinton. Probably in 8 years because the economy always does better under democrats.

That is unless he figures out that Speaker of the House is more powerful than president.

Is this a troll? That lineup of mayo-lovers and a black dude with more made-up stories in his autobiography than a lit mag was awful and resoundly rejected by your own party as being corrupt douchebags (and a black dude), apparently. I mean that's what the nomination of Trump means, right?

Oh goodie. Another Joslyn Elders. We really need a highly political Surgeon General.

Besides. I think Carson may still have ambitions beyond SG. He is not done yet.

And Republicans, aware of Clinton's likely victory on November 8, have made it clear they plan to bog down a potential second Clinton administration in endless congressional investigations
.

Nothing short of traitorous. If they don't like the will of the voters they will simply steal the franchise from them. They are guilty of treason.

When I heard this today I decided to vote entirely democrat. I even called a friend who is running for office as a republican and told him I was voting against him.
