Usernames Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 The polls are unscientific. They are biased towards younger voters who prefer Bernie already, are much likely to vote in instant online polls, and in real life, mostly don't vote. I'm sure scientific polls will show differently. Sure, just like the last Republican debate, when all the Washington media whores said Fiorina broke through and won and was about to beat Trump. You know, Fiorina. As in sixth place Fiorina. http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/862393-donald-trump-continues-to-lead-republican-presidential-race-cbs-poll/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 By surprise pick for VP I only mean I think its likely to be a name people aren't talking about right now, not a high risk person who won't be seen to be qualified. I kind of see Castro that way ... charisma but he would be attacked for having too thin a resume. I don't think she really needs a Midwesterner to balance the picket. She basically IS a Midwesterner and Midwesterners can relate to her. She has no chance in the deep south but will definitely be playing hard for Florida, Virginia, and North Carolina.

FangFerang Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 People whop say that Sanders cannot get the nomination are just parroting the media's blackout of his rallies, which have record-setting attendees. Wake up. The media is in bed with both Hillary and Bush, and the beastly offspring of that unholy menage a troi would make the antichrist look like a poster child for baby food.

Traveling Sailor Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 "David Plouffe, an architect of Obama's two campaigns, wrote on Twitter that Clinton looked like a candidate who could win the general election." What a shame that this evil woman is so popular. For the 1st time in my life, if she is the Democratic choice, I will vote Republican in the next election.

Jingthing Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) Did you watch the debate? Plouffe is 100 percent correct. She came across as much more presidential than anyone on the stage and anyone on the republican's stage as well, and they've got a BIG stage! The other side has possible winners though. Not Trump, Carson, or Fiorina, but if they come to their senses and nominate Kasich or Rubio, then it will be a hard race for Hillary. Anyone who has been a democrat and would vote for any of republicans on offer now, good riddance, go away, you're not a real democrat.

mikebike Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Exit and instant polls may not be able to be as rigorous, but they are a good general indication. The gap they showed between HC and BS was well beyond even a wide margin of error. It seems 'the people' are disagreeing with the establishment media pundits.

mikebike Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 What does 'coming across as presidential' even mean? The electorate believed that Bush jr., Carter, Reagan, Nixon, Kennedy... and so on, ALL 'came across as presidential' but with obviously varying results.

JakeSully Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 It's clear that the mainstream media is having a "we can't have this guy as President" moment with Bernie Sanders.

Jingthing Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Nobody is pooping diamonds. They are just facing political reality.

dunroaming Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 There will be lots of hot air and bickering up until the election and then Clinton will win. You may not like it and it may not be the right decision for you all but internationally it will be well received. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 There won't be as much bickering as you think. Biden won't run. Sanders will do well in Iowa and New Hampshire but after that his campaign will fall apart. Sanders is no Obama. Hillary has finally found her sweet spot. Next ...

pitrevie Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 She will be the nominee. Yes it's not too early to speculate about her VP pick. Sanders no way. Kasich no way even more so. Julian Castro. Maybe. He has charisma which she lacks but people would be concerned about the heartbeat thing as no foreign policy experience. Of those on the stage possibly OMalley. Boring but solid. I think more likely none of those. More like a big surprise. I am not looking for a surprise VP pick on the Dem side. That's a desperation move for a one-down already candidate like McCain. Hillary would have more to lose than to gain. It would have to be someone with a track record, already vetted by the public, but without major negatives. The Repubs will face the huge disadvantage of a first-time female presidential candidate who will definitely pull some Repub women because of the historical nature of the event. That's part of the reason she emphasized the Repub threat to Planned Parenthood. So, look for Rubio (on whom the billionaires are already settling) to pick a woman or a black or even a black woman. Just when I thought that the dumbest VP on record would forever be held by Quayle along comes Palin and if elected would certainly have beaten him by a mile. The GOP knows how to pick them. However the best part was, most people realized within a short time that she was mentally challenged but it took several years for many on the right to admit what others had known from the beginning.

Go ahead and nominate Sanders and then watch the most massive landslide in American history happen. With him on the losing end. At least since McGovern walked away with a single state. The degree by which I would rather have Sanders as president compared to Hillary pales by comparison to the degree that I would rather have Hillary than any Republican.

chuckd Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 The Democrats better hope that Mark Harmon isn't running. ------------------------------------------------------------------- More people watched 'NCIS' than the Democratic debate by Tom Huddleston, Jr. OCTOBER 14, 2015, 4:04 PM EDT Hillary Clinton was widely declared the winner of Tuesday night’s debate, but in terms of ratings, the Democrats lost to the GOP … and NCIS. Hosted by CNN and Facebook, the first Democratic debate of the 2016 election season averaged 15.3 million total viewers, according to Nielsen’s numbers. That marked a new ratings record for Democratic debates, but it still fell well short of the GOP’s numbers. The first GOP debate aired on Fox News in August and pulled in a record-breaking 24 million viewers. Last month’s follow-up on CNN pulled in roughly 23 million, which was a record for CNN. The Dems’ ratings also couldn’t top the 15.7 million viewers who tuned in to watch the fourth episode of the season for CBS drama NCIS, starring actor Mark Harmon.

lifeincnx Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 If Elizabeth Warren jumped on the ticket as VP with Sanders, HRC would have a hard time keeping that pasted-on smile in place. Meanwhile the GOP's field leads with a 4-time corporate bankrupted crass loud mouth, a young-Earth Creationist doctor who doesn't grasp the separation of church and state, and a female former CEO who, other than being a hyperbolic liar, is only known for driving HP into the proverbial ground.What a horse race.
