Don't worry, ss2k5 never actually sticks to the talking points when pressed. Always reverts to the exact same play book.

Yep, that's pretty much it. Just start whining about talking points and bias without actually being responsive to anything that's being said.

Noooo, Nate with the kiss of death.

It's funny that liberals b****ed and moaned about the RNC speakers talking about Hillary for days instead of their nominee. Thus far my twitter feed is nothing but Trump burns, not one word about why Hillary would be a good President.

I was hoping Bernie would have flipped the script after getting f***ed by the Dems... but he rolled over and died.. wonder what position he gets if Hillary wins.

To quote CNN of all places, the post convention bump disn't really exist anymore until Trump and Trump had perhaps the biggest bump ever.

 

That said polls aren't statistically relevant until end of September-ish. I guess that means analysis like Silvers predictions would be a lot lot better to look at, but you're also not going to find me go to bat for him ever either.

Both McCain and Romney got convention bumps so I don't know what cnn is talking about.

 

Oh they appear to be talking about just the CNN poll rather than the aggregate. Overall his bump is pretty mixed and certainly not the biggest ever.

edit: oh and for that CNN poll, they didn't even have enough responses to form an 18-34 demographic group. Phone polling in the future is only going to get harder.

But like with the rest of the polls, throw 'em on the pile and watch the averages (which do have Trump slightly ahead)

Of course this is happening; thanks for pointing it out though. The most perplexing thing of all time is why African Americans like her and support her and it's sickening that women are overwhelmingly playing the sex card, dying to simply have a female president. Sure we need one, but not Hillary Clinton the liar. Sad.

So as of today, how much does Hillary lead Trump by? Has the landslide begun?

76% and 5,678 electoral votes, which is enough to allow her to replace every SC justice if she wants, and she also gets to pass 1 major piece of legislation without Congressional approval. It's in Article 12.

OMG she is beating Trump with 76 percent of the vote? He can't overcome that. Game over. Blowout.

LOL

And that is even before the DNC gets involved with Mr Robot.

You're not following the news. Trump already conceded and Hillary promised him the next Secretary of the Treasury position.

I do have to laugh at the wikileaks reversal of opinions. When the topic was Iraq War, the right wing was calling the leakers traitors, and questioning the source, while the left just embraced the information. Now when the topic is the DNC and Hillary, the left is worried about the source and the right just embraced the information.

 

I wonder why we never go anywhere politically...

Both the DNC and GOP are hilariously hypocritical. Its sad that we are going to get one of these candidates as President. The only positive to come from this election is that both establishments have more or less been exposed. Unfortunately nothing will ever happen from it, but if youre gonna be stuck watching these two crooks run for president at least we can see the parties implode.

Wikileaks has always been garbage and just dumps data without any regard for privacy. That's how basically every woman in a major political party in Brazil got doxxed recently.

 

They also have close ties to Russias rt propaganda channel and their response to the Panama papers has been very pro putin. Compare how wikileaks handles info versus the group that got the Panama papers.

Kinda funny this was posted prior to the DNC speakers ever saying a word and citing Twitter posts? Anyway, two days in and there hasn't been a ton of talk about Trump by the DNC speakers, which is what you'd likely want to compare the RNC speakers to.

 

Then again, the RNC speakers were no better really than any old insane Twitter feed.

It was posted during the middle of night one.

 

And I was referring to CNN/AP feeds, though I didn't say it. My bad.

Day one I saw three videos "Trump in his Own Words"

 

I only watched Bill's speech last night.

If he made up those figures that's not very nice and people should see I'm not the only one to write questionable things at times on this message board.
