Hillary is going win

I hope you're right. But you're always wrong, so...

indigenous says

With that in mind, I don't think the Rs will win a presidential election for the foreseeable future.

I hope you're right, but, well, you know...

The mistake is to think linearly. The D's aren't going to have a lock in perpetuity. There will be a change my guess is that the Rs disappear completely. After 4 years or maybe 8 years when her Parkinson's is very advanced and she inevitably creates chaos, the dumb asses will realize what a mistake she was. The Libertarians may just replace the Rs.

My guess...the R's will move more to the center in the next few years. The religious right is screwed.

There are lots of Libertarians that are very religious.

After Cruz got shut down, I suspect that is already happening.

Relax. If you were worried you'd vote.

They have to learn where Aleppo is and learn that Americans actually want government to do something.

Bullshit nobody knew where Aleppo before some NBC reporter used to trick Johnson.

Not that support him because of his ignorance of libertarian principles.

But a real Libertarian a reincarnated Thomas Jefferson or George Washington or James Madison would put the Libertarians over the top.

Go ahead, say it. It's a Patnet site.

They should combine "Leave It To Beaver" and "Post-Apocalyptic Flying Nun" and call it "Commando Flying Nun"!

Er, I've been to Aleppo.

Like I said nobody knew where Aleppo was...

Yawn.
What you actually meant was that ignorant buffoons like you and Johnson didn't know where it was. The fact that the city has been front and center for years in the war in Syria obviously passed the two of you by.

Aleppo got on the map only recently. No one knew about it, no-one cared. I doubt if anyone even cares.
Aleppo sounds more like a vegetable than a city.

No, it didn't. Just because you are equally ill-informed/uninterested in foreign affairs doesn't mean it has just appeared on the map. It has been central to what's been happening in Syria since the war began.

Syria isn't that important to the world either. Just another violent and crazy Mid East country.

That's your opinion. I'm sure plenty of others disagree. That doesn't negate the fact that Aleppo has been in the news for years and has been an important regional city for thousands of years. People should know where it is. The fact that you/they don't speaks more to your/their lack of knowledge than the importance of that city.

Why should anyone care about Aleppo? What's so special about it?
If people don't care about Syria, why would they care about Aleppo, a Syrian city. I care more for where my next vacation will be at, and Aleppo is not on the list.

They called him Beaver because he was fucked in the head.

The only Middle East countries I would consider visiting are UAE, Egypt and Israel. The rest of the Mid East is # 1 million on my bucket list. Honestly, if the whole crazy Mid East was swallowed up by the earth, I would buy everyone on Patnet a beer.

What you talkin about Willis.

Daddy says Chelsea living high off the foundation for a decade is proof enough of Clinton corruption. AND her 6 figure wedding funded by qutarCash should garner some juicy state department favors.

I decided to read this thread backwards, from finish to start. About halfway done and it's so much fun!

My point....no one knows nor cares about Aleppo. If i owned Aleppo, i would trade it for a car.

This latest use of the FBI circus to attack Clinton happened during the days over 20 million Americans voted
==========================

But many more will vote on Tuesday. And let's face it.... The college votes are what matter. And that happens Tuesday. The fact is.... had Comey said nothing and it got out, it would have been much worse for them then just admitting that the emails existed and expediting the reclosure of the investigation. They were in a tough situation. Reopening the case had its risk to the early voters... But given how little they matter... I think they did the math and decided that it was better to lose out on some of the early voting in order to have her cleared by the time the real voting, the college voting, the voting that actually elects the President, happened.

So Jazz.... at no time has a president won the popular vote but lost the electoral college vote, thus losing the presidency? Are you saying that's never happened before?

Then you misunderstood my original post, because that was my point. You say that there's great gravity to her potential loss in the early voting due to Comeys announcement. I said, it doesn't really matter because the situation was resolved before Tuesday when the rest of the country, and more importantly, the college votes occur. And you said I was wrong. Now you say that I'm changing the subject. Seriously, no more wine for you! ;)

jazz music votes early says

accuse me of being drunk.

Because you said I changed the subject when that subject was the very point of my original post.... but I was just kidding about the drinking. Notice the wink-smiley face after The sentence. A commonly recognized symbol for kidding around.

The electoral college is based on the popular vote in each state. Each early vote counts as much as each vote on the 8th, so there is no'real vote'. Plus, if Clinton wins Florida, it is pretty much over. More than 2/3rds of the Florida vote is expected to be early. So if there were a 'real' vote, it would be the early vote.

That said, I agree with Obama that Comey is an honest person doing his best, but that he made a mistake going public. Note that reopening the investigation and going public are two different things. Like I said many times, they could filter through the bulk of those emails very quickly. So he could have realized quickly that there was probably nothing much there.

Strategist says

Then your point is sadly mistaken. A great many people know and care about what has happened to Aleppo and the people living there.

Tenpoundbass says

I think Hillary has peaked.

Lol, Hillary's early voting push may be all she gets.

If so, it shows how few people want her "out of prison."

"Is that what CNN and Mother Jones told you today?"

No--but you go right ahead and keep posting articles from zerohedge. That's a well respected, unbiased source.

turtledove says

I thought something was up when Obama said that Comey was just doing his job.

Yes, I'd be surprised if Obama does not coordinate with Clinton.

An analogy with the investigations of Bill 20 years ago is false. The republicans are now lying low because they don't like Trump. Wait until after the elections.

We'll find out tonight!

"Nice job disproving the email in the OP.... Why do you hate FACTS???"

I love facts. Let me know when you decide to start posting some.

It's not a prediction. It's his summary of where the polling stands stated in terms of probabilities.

How accurate was Nate in the Primaries?

I bought some Hillary at -300 last week and sold most of it back yesterday with Trump +420.

I still think Hillary wins, but I'm not the type to pass up free money
