Here is something very odd: Clinton won Georgia easily in the primaries. Out of over 750,000 votes, she won well over 500,000.

Well, guess who is more likely to win Georgia in the general election right now?

Quote:
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution poll shows Trump with a 4-point lead over Clinton, 45 percent to 41 percent, which is within the poll’s 4.26 percentage point margin of error.

. . .

Mirroring several recent polls, Bernie Sanders polled higher than Clinton in a general election meeting with Trump. Sanders — now a long shot to become the Democratic nominee — bests Trump 47 percent to 42 percent in a hypothetical contest. Sanders also had the highest favorability rating (47 percent), compared with 40 percent for Trump and 31 for Clinton.


This is even more weird, because Georgia's was an open primary.

I wish. Unless disaster strikes, it will be HRC vs. DJT, but in the event the race becomes 2 old white male populists, then just for pure anarchy: I hope that Bernie and Donald reach a tie, and then the GOP-dominated House of Representatives is forced into roll-call voting procedure for declaring the winner. Nothing would entertain me more than to see them forced to go on record for selecting one whom they wish was not their party's nominee, or one whom they called a Socialist. The irony would be absolutely brilliant. This result would be shocking to the hord of angry citizens holding pitchforks in the street, regardless of outcome either way, and any pretense of civility might very well then be disgarded as they set upon the authorities and one another. Chaos. Martial law. Police state. Good times!

The only thing I know about Sanders is he's a liberal. Enough is enough please. Open the flood gates and let the poor immigrants in to turn America into a country of dysfunction just like the countries they come from.

Unacceptable gaffe, chap. Bernie isn't White.

He calls himself a socialist. He's an ethnic communist.

If this appears to be an objectionable phrasing, then insert "European" in the stead of an irrelevant color reference. Now heritage can been more accurately indicated. However, that may be too generalizing, yet further subdivision will require DNA sampling, so dismissal of the offending adjective entirely is just as acceptable, as the string of 3 others will hopefully suffice to support the ascribed comic hilarity.

It may be too generalizing to more accurately indicate heritage? The hell you on about, boy?

Your statements would less often mean the opposite of what you intended them to if you stopped trying so hard to sound like Mr. Roboto. Talk like a man with purpose, not a dweeb who fried his brain watching too much Mystery Science Theater. Anyway, Bernie is not White or European. He's Jewish. Jews are a people from the Middle East.

One appears to be rather orange, so hopefully this deletion will not detract from the ascribed comic hilarity.

I have no problem with Trump, even though I'm a Muslim.

Ha, I don't think the Khazar story is true. There was a genetic study done that determined that Jews were mostly Middle Eastern but with a significant Italian admixture from the days of the Roman Empire. But they're shape shifters who are very secretive about their background so it's hard to know for sure. They never truly integrate anywhere, they fraction themselves off to blend in, though this doesn't seem to reduce their potency much. It gets more bizarre and mysterious the more you look into it.

Apparently, Sanders is so dead-set against Trump that he is willing to endorse Hillary Clinton.
