this thing might be close to OVER

callmeslick · Post by **callmeslick** » Fri Jul 29, 2016 6:22 am

82 percent of viewers last night saw the Clinton speech favorably, Trump went to sheer desperation in Iowa attempting to shore up GOP support('they have to vote for me', he said.....no, they don't). The greatest turnout machine on the planet is heading to work this morning, and now I'm hearing(not denied by Jeffery Lord on CNN, either) that Trump is trying to weigh avoiding the three debates. This might well be over now. We'll know in about 6 weeks after convention bounces give way to ground game.

More hyperbole on your part slick. RCP has Trump over Clinton but lets see if Hillary Clinton has any legs after her dismal performance.

Yes, that article says a lot about Trump, but it also points out some real stupidity among the people who were working for him.

Example: the guy that said he hadn’t been paid overtime for three years…well guess what…I would have quit the first check that didn’t have my correct pay, or at the very least, I would have brought up the issue, and then quit as soon as I understood I was getting screwed.

Just saying....

...didn't he promise to produce the best convention ever? Aren't there interviews in which others stated he was managing every last detail?

by the way.....note that Stein's support has plummetted from 5 to 2 percent, right to the very number I suggested she was heading in one of my cocktail party reports last week. You could feel it as the week wore on, especially if you were outside the fences and talking to the B or B folks. That vocal crew got smaller, and younger, by the day.

Hmmm. That sounds just like what the Dems claimed when Bushie won Florida AND the election in 2000. It didn't get the Dems anywhere to whine about it and it isn't going to get Trump anywhere either. Loser.

Disclaimer: I voted for Sanders in California. Reality: Hillary would have won the nomination even without meddling from the party. She had it wrapped up before the primaries started, statistically, and this is a fact Bernie supporters need to accept. He was always an outside candidate, a long-shot, and it's truly remarkable how far he got.

Mrs Clinton is playing the perfect centrist and I suspect her administration will pay close attention to Bernie supporters over the next four years and shape policy around them. Why do I think this? Because the fracture lines are there, just like when the Tea Party took form a mere eight years ago. Now look at the Republican Party. It's been decimated. I imagine the Democratic Party will learn from the mistakes of it's sibling. After all, if you want total power you can't have things like an internal revolution, right?

callmeslick · Post by **callmeslick** » Thu Aug 04, 2016 2:34 pm

I'm sure something will emerge from the ashes of the GOP, but not sure how it will be ideologically grounded. Time will tell. But given today's numbers, which include:
Michigan--Clinton by 9
Ohio--Clinton by 8
Pennsylvania--Clinton by 11
New Hampshire--Clinton by 15
Virginia--Clinton by 9
Georgia--TIED(freaking Georgia!!)
Trump is heading towards making this a fight to save Congress for the GOP. Given some of the tea party losses in Tuesday's primaries, we may be seeing the beginnings of the salvage effort. I still think the GOP did to the national brand with Trump what Delaware's Repubs did with Christine O'Donnell. It's been a few cycles and GOP candidates here win essentially NOTHING statewide. Many of us fought and got a GOP auditor elected, just to keep the only party in power on the up and up. So far, so good.

woodchip · Post by **woodchip** » Sat Aug 06, 2016 8:31 am

By the amount of Trump bashing you do here I can only think you and the Dems are running scared. Notice how I haven't posted hardly any Hillary bashing threads.

callmeslick · Post by **callmeslick** » Sat Aug 06, 2016 9:00 am

not running scared, Woody....had enough of the stupidity. I'm hoping for a blowout because the nation needs one in this case. Post whatever you choose.

woodchip · Post by **woodchip** » Sat Aug 06, 2016 9:25 am

I had 8 years of stupidity and still don't see the need to bash Hillary as she would give us another 4 years of the same. Then again I'm not running scared.

Also Hillary Clinton now appears to be losing her convention mojo:

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's lead over Republican rival Donald Trump narrowed to less than 3 percentage points, according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll released on Friday, down from nearly eight points on Monday.

How fast she is falling is amazing. Can't wait to hear slicks excuses.

callmeslick · Post by **callmeslick** » Sun Aug 07, 2016 6:11 am

wow, Captain Cherry Pick. Note that poll is the current outlier, with EVERY other poll, including two released since, giving her 7-10 percent. Note also that NOT ONE poll has the Orange Baboon in front.

Wait. Watch and Wait.
