From Today’s Open Thread:
“Trump’s wins among late-deciders account for his margins of victory in FL, MI, PA and WI. He loses w/out them.”
From Me on March 16, 2016 the day Clinton Clinched the Dem nomination:
Stop it with this crap. Just stop it.
“Politico says the odds of a contested convention for the GOP just went way up: “The impact of Rubio’s exit — and Kasich’s sudden rise — creates a mess…”
No. Wrong. Just stop it.
Trump won. He’ll be nominated on the first or second ballot. The GOP “establishment” (and “movement conservatives” who claim that Trump is some kind of affront to their pristine values) will come down with a huge case of amnesia, Republicans will vote for him. All of them.
The race is now 45% for Trump and 45% for Clinton. The 10% aren’t “in the middle” (as Chris Matthews would have you think). The 10% are dumbasses who will sway in the wind and come election day they’ll vote for the person that they think is the eventual “winner”
Democrats are enslaved to the utter nonsense that voters weigh out issues and make decisions based on some rational adjudication of competing arguments. They DON’t.
Democrats – Stop listening to John Carney and Chris Matthews. The Republicans are not “valued partners” and “the middle” doesn’t want to work out some kind of compromise with them. The late deciders want to be on the winning side, and that is it. That’s all there is.
