    It was really almost a best-case scenario for Hilary, tonight. Big wins in Florida (not surprising), North Carolina (not surprising), and Ohio (surprising if only because of Michigan last week), plus Rubio dropping out removing the only real Republican chance in the general.

    If the party splits, you know that Trump's side would have to be called the Trump Party or the Trump Super Great Even Better than Republican Party or some nonsense because when has he ever been able to resist putting his name on anything.

    Or maybe he'd double-down on his hat & slogan & all that.

    The last bit of SLC reporting is in; barring errors it swings the vote to Clinton with only Clinton favorable Jackson County outstanding.

    Just to drive him a little bit crazy, I took to referring to him as a “short-fingered vulgarian” in the pages of Spy magazine. That was more than a quarter of a century ago. To this day, I receive the occasional envelope from Trump. There is always a photo of him—generally a tear sheet from a magazine. On all of them he has circled his hand in gold Sharpie in a valiant effort to highlight the length of his fingers. I almost feel sorry for the poor fellow because, to me, the fingers still look abnormally stubby. The most recent offering arrived earlier this year, before his decision to go after the Republican presidential nomination. Like the other packages, this one included a circled hand and the words, also written in gold Sharpie: “See, not so short!” I sent the picture back by return mail with a note attached, saying, “Actually, quite short.” Which I can only assume gave him fits.

    Talking with a friend on Steam.

    She's pissed because she was turned away from a Chicago polling station because she recently moved and the address on her driver's license didn't match her current address.

    She brought 3 bills, a state ID, social security card...

    I've voted in Chicago three times now and have never even needed an ID. I just say my name and address, then they look at it on a piece of paper and hand me a ballot.

    It's almost as if our primary system is a somewhat purposefully obtuse clusterfuck mired by human error and voter suppression that needs massive overhauls and federalized standardization to make things more fair, rational and representative of the democracy it's supposed to help create.

    While not incorrect, I do find this statement amusing since last thread I saw you make a post questioning the wisdom of letting Southern States "dictate" the early course of the primary season, which sounded an awful lot like wanting to disenfranchise people who voted in an inconvenient way only to quickly edit that part out.

    I gave my candidate $100. He sent me back a t-shirt first class. I'm glad he was spending that money wisely.

    Garland? Yeah, that didn't take long at all. Nobody even has to say anything really.

    "This is an easy one. Both our Leader and Judiciary Chairman voted against him when he was confirmed before," the aide said. "And it’s a clear recognition by the White House that we mean what we say: there will be no confirmation. If they thought we were going to cave, they would have put up a much different candidate."

    I suspect someone told Jeb! that the millenials really care about whether or not your campaign has a quirky 404 page and then he went through the same design team that gave us his campaign logo.

    There is some wisdom in the basic concept that we do need to stop letting the east coast decide everything.

    Almost everyone I know on the west coast has rarely ever paid attention to the primary because the winners mentality (people are more likely to vote for a perceived winner even if they don't agree with them simply because people enjoy being on the winning side.) pretty much defeats the entire process a third of the way in.

    It's pretty shitty democracy.

    What we really need is a bloodsport. Bring back dueling!
