I'm confident that Dems can get PA back. That's a whole different issue; in 2018, in the congressional elections, redistricting helped Democrats secure additional House seats because our congressional districts weren't a gerrymandered mess anymore. But turnout in the suburbs wasn't due to redistricting, or at least not in any large part. From what I can tell, it's just a severe example of the trends we've seen since 2016 of former moderate Republican suburbs becoming moderate Democrat suburbs. This article has some really good visualizations for PA trends: https://www.inquirer.com/politics/inq/pennsylvania-polarization-election-results-democrats-republicans-trends-map-20190207.html I'm talkin' 'bout forever, baby.

I'm over this sensationalized rhetoric that Biden will lose terribly. Some things to keep in mind: Hillary, even without campaigning in the Midwest which arguably cost her WI and MI, still managed to get over 65M votes which was more than Obama got in 2012. However, Hillary was LARGELY disliked by the general population as her favorability was in the dumpster next to Trump. I'm way more confident in Biden than with Hillary for that main reason. We're already seeing record breaking turnout on the Democrat side. The black vote is key. And I hate to say it, but he's not a woman. And if Hillary was a man, she probably would've had a much better shot of winning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctherainbow 3,162 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Bloomberg is continuing to slide in both Texas and Cali. He might miss statewide delegate viability in both states, I- I'm talkin' 'bout forever, baby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whispering 18,865 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 It appears the Young Turks won’t be getting their first member of Congress, based on early results in the special election for California’s 25th Congressional District. Cenk Uygur only has about 5 percent of the vote, way back from the 20-plus percent that three other candidates have. Glad to hear that he doesn’t stand a chance!

I even tuned in to TYT to watch Ana Kasparian's fumes. I didn't want to give them an extra view, but it was worth it. Biden winning Texas is the icing on the cake. So if things stay this way we're sure that, at best, Trump will be defeated by a candidate who will never do enough for the environment, LGBT rights or to fight poverty etc etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you were talking about sanders supporters being hypocrites in one of your comment here, where were you when the exact same type of comment were made towards them? Cause I saw it quite a few times and you or the people who liked this comment of yours weren't complaining about rudeness in those cases. That's ironic.

Azor Ahai 18,861 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Well it's over. Biden is getting the nomination. And he's going to lose hard. I predict a smaller turnout than 2016 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a video with him meltdowning and almost crying. It was enjoyable, until he started the insults against Biden. Is he supposed to be a good example of the Bernie supporter? Because the way he acted is the reason why people have problems with Bernie and his supporters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
