I went on blackout until 10:00 PM. I missed the meltdowns.The worst moment was easily the 538 needle for the House races trending Republican. I was legit about to turn my phone off and go to sleep.

Thanks. That's what I assumed.Yup.
He wins them 60-37. She's at 49-36. She also does a much worse job holding on to the Clinton vote than Bernie does. Bernie is at 91-3 with Clinton voters. She's at 84-7.
IDk if he can do better than Hillary in Miami-Dade, but there MIGHT be some room in Orange and Seminole, especially since those areas have had a bit of a surge in folks relocating from Puerto Rico. If I am remembering correctly, Nelson did basically nothing to activate them whatsoever. If Bernie can do some outreach there, especially with surrogates like AOC? I'm also sure they wouldn't want to, but fuck, send Hillary to Palm Beach County. Let her do a tour with the olds. It'd be worth shoring up some support there.After seeing his support with Hispanics, I wonder if he actually can beat Hillary's numbers in Miami. My instinct is to say no because a lot of Hispanics in Miami are Cuban, who are different and vote differently from, say, Mexican Americans or Puerto Ricans.
Yeah, Cuban Americans tend to fall for red scare tactics. This is why I'm super worried FL is a lost cause for Sanders (he's also doing badly in the primary polls we have now) but we don't have statewide races there this time around and we would be insane to base our electoral math on winning FL.

Oh yeah I know, just thought it was pretty poorly-timed lolHe's commenting on a story that has already been shown to be inconsistent and inaccurate if not debunked entirely.
You mean Assange? I don't doubt it could have happened, but he's not the most reliable person these days. If he's got some receipts that would go a long way.It's pretty sad that Edward Snowden accused Trump of dangling a pardon for covering up Russian involvement in the DNC hack today and it barely even made a blip. In normal times, this would have killed any president's efforts at re-election.

The lawyer was present for the meeting and there are pictures, apparently. On social media, even.You mean Assange? I don't doubt it could have happened, but he's not the most reliable person these days. If he's got some receipts that would go a long way.
So that primary story earlier?
Both parties involved denies it.
Not the first time Edward Isaac Dovere has published negative Bernie stories that get retracted.
Is it really debunked? A denial from the Sanders campaign after the fact and Reid and company saying there was never a serious attempt. Don't think this guy just made this story out of thin air.He's commenting on a story that has already been shown to be inconsistent and inaccurate if not debunked entirely.
Hopefully we get the receipts.The lawyer was present for the meeting and there are pictures, apparently. On social media, even.

Sorry, yes. But you knew who I meant. Just imagine though if he had said something like that during Dubya's re-election.You mean Assange? I don't doubt it could have happened, but he's not the most reliable person these days. If he's got some receipts that would go a long way.

Grenell's Senate confirmation fight for his current job got pretty ugly, with Dems objecting to his nomination over past comments about women. Naming Grenell as *acting* DNI means no Senate confirmation fight for a permanent role.

President Obama winning IN in 2008 will always be the staggering one to me. NC at least has the Research Triangle to explain its move toward purpleness. That IN victory was the epitome of unrepeatable.

New thread folks.
Mods lock this one up like Roger Stone.
It was fine for a while but it got really heated when Chuck Todd made the brown shirt brigade comment about Bernie bros. That even for me who gives a side eye to some of Bernie's vocal online supporters was wayyy crossing the line especially on TV.
It's tragic that this is the conversation about Bernie's base of support comes back to that some really small, hyper-engaged part of them can be kind of mean.
The the wider, much more interesting discussion is that he started with a core of white resentment voters, mostly college educated, that were pissed off by the impact of the Great Recession and it's extremely painful human cost. He's managed since to expand his appeal and retain that base without changing his core messaging. Bernie is actually a really good politician
Not so good with policy ( actually , kind of yikes) , not such a good legislator, not such a good administrator. But super good politician.
The senate will be a pain, but it'll be a stubborn itch compared to the cancer that is a senate lead by Mitch McConnell. Dear God would it be a relief not having him in charge anymore. That said... is Sinema really going to try being a Manchin for a state with two democrat senators (this is assuming they win control of the senate)? If that's the case then they've clearly learned nothing from Obama's presidency. Wet blanket blue dogs that only drag their presidents down just ruin democrat enthusiasm. I blame them more for midterm losses than Obama.
I don't give a shit when the person himself is so repugnant honestly.Just gonna throw this bomb out there, but do any Sanders supporters think he's in better health than Bloomberg?
