Did I screw up not adding a live header? I saw something about doing that but can't remember how or if this is the type of thread that should have one.

Glad to be here amongst friends!

"90% of Wisconson (his highest yet) see Sanders as honest, and 60% say this is the most important quality in a candidate. 20% of WI voters are non-white. Only 4/10 say electability is their primary concern in a candidate. Record low moderates, just 25%!!! Democrats are 70% of these voters (not independents). More WI folks think trade deals are not good than otherwise. 3/4 think the economy is poor (this is normally Sanders stronghold). Younger voters, 18-29 years old, are the highest they have been in a WI Democratic primary since 1976.

Wisconsin primary results: track the votes, county by county

Ok, I wait for the little old man with the white hair and the glasses to paint the first county results. He is so cute. Smile

If you want me to say anything but silly things, let the mainstream media go first to not say silly stuff and I will follow. Won't happen though.

Thanks for linking it, I was waiting for them to post it but had a friend stop by and hadn't had a chance to look while trying to get caught up replying to all the wonderful C99Peeps that joined us tonight!

Lets hope for another map where Mini-Hillary doesn't get to use her scissor lift! Smile

vote Democratic. Or say all the candidates are morons and don't vote. Most people (including most Democratic voters) vote emotionally, not rationally. So voting because you like the guy is distressingly common. It's also why negative ads work.

During TYT break, saw this at The Guardian:

Sanders seizes on reports of victory

Bernie Sanders has sent an email declaring victory in Wisconsin, apparently based on the strength of early returns and the decision of at least one network to call it for him.

I am sure this could have been worded a LOT better. It sounds like Sanders claimed something that he did not deserve. *Sigh*

With 32% reporting:
Sanders 53.7
Clinton 46.1

People are still in line per TYT.

Can you even begin to calculate how much money they would lose if Sanders wins and succeeds in getting money out of politics?

We are talking literally BILLIONS per cycle.

Sure, that may be chump change to big ballers like us, but to normal people thats serious money. Wink

From The Guardian:

The Clinton campaign contributes a statement now to the stack, accusing the Sanders camp of trying to override the will of voters:

“It seems the Sanders campaign is finally seeing the writing on the wall: Hillary has won more votes AND more pledged delegates in this election – her lead in both is nearly insurmountable,” reads a statement by campaign manager Robby Mook:

So this morning, Bernie’s campaign manager claimed the convention could be an “open convention,” and declared they’re going to try and flip delegates’ votes, overturning the will of the voters.

Your vote is your voice, and the Sanders campaign shouldn’t be trying to circumvent the process – or the nearly 9 million (and counting) people who have made their voice heard for Hillary in this election.

It is sad to know that so many people cannot see through this bull and the media agrees with it. It also shows just how blind the HRC campaign is.

I am going to have to go find some quotes from 2008 where I am pretty sure she probably argued that SDs would flip for her.
