Delegate Math and the GOP
There was no public vote in Colorado. That was cancelled once Trump became a viable and probable candidate for Colorado. To be a delegate there, you had to be approved by a GOP selection committee which was taking off Trump supporters off their list. There was no process for which Trump could navigate. It was corrupt, as Colorado made the rules as they went along, particularly with the declaration process, in order to have their guy win.

Delegate Math and the GOP
The Colorado thing is a huge story that no one seems to be talking about. Colorado more or less didn't have a primary then decided Cruz can be their winner and gave him all the delegates without their citizens having a real say. Indiana and whatever is just failing to play the game properly. I think that game is so stupid to begin with, but Colorado took it to a whole new level of corrupt. People should be pissed with the Republican party for spitting in the face of voters.

If they cancel they'll have to do it very soon. Hourly looms fine. 40% chance of rain at 3 but should be quick and nothing past that.

Favorite Sox player to wear each number
I know way more about the White Sox franchise and it's history than I like to admit but for some reason player numbers never really stuck to me. I barely know anyone's. Off the top of my head it's Frank Thomas 35 and Nick Swisher "Dirty 30" (yuck).

Panama Papers
QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 11:15 PM) It doesn't remotely hold any water. Even if the leaks were motivated (as if Snowden's werent), has there been any pushback whatsoever that this information is forged or untrue? Cameron has admitted his involvement. The Icelandic PM has admitted their involvement. But a US businessman was willing to throw 2 allies under the bus to cause mild discomfort to Putin? This information has been spread to multiple news sources nad the actual docs are with the Suddeutsche Zeitung and 5 other news orgs, with only one org that has Soros as a contributor to the non-profit company. I don't think they're saying it's untrue (unless I missed that) and I don't think the Soros connection is the story here. It's more that the most transparent organization out there is being ridiculously critical of the biggest leak of our time when you'd think they'd for it. In fact it seemed like a week ago they were, which is why I was surprised reading their tweets tonight (from the last couple days). Wikileaks has either been overcome with extreme jealousy they didnt break a story right up their alley, become a Russian puppet themselves after securing Snowden's transfer or they have a point and these docs should flat out be dumped and released Wikileaks style. I don't completely agree with the latter since there is going to be a ton of personal data involved here but at the same time I don't trust the journalists to come out with this story in a timely and orderly fashion with so much data out there. They are releasing some so far but it's basically a grain of sand compared to a beach of documents. I believe there's a large release set for May although I'm not sure if that similar to the 150 we've seen so far. I'd much prefer they just vet documents for personal info then mass release as much as possible, letting the public write the stories. That'd be both timelier and would eliminate any uncertainty of the vetting of these documents.

Panama Papers
So Wikileaks is claiming the documents were more or less being vetted by George Soros and company for release and are being used to target BRIC countries, hence little to no American involvement here. Wonder how much truth there is to that. I guess if there's one thing about Wikileaks, they are for complete transparency. Could be a case of jealousy too.
