for whoever the Republican nominee is, no matter who the Democratic nominee. Possibly they will vote in such small numbers that the electoral map will look like that, but I won't hold my breath.

A good friend is currently off on a cruise with some family members. One is an older woman who is a Trump supporter. She's essentially a Tea Party type, so Hillary Clinton simply doesn't resonate with her. She's probably barely heard of Bernie Sanders. It will be interesting to talk with my friend when she gets back home to find out if Trumps more recent verbal atrocities have in any way changed her mind about him.

In reality, if Trump is the Republican nominee, and Republican women simply don't vote at all, the men who'll vote for him will turn some states red.

The world is not as crazy as we think, media hype notwithstanding.

That's not to say it's not somewhat crazy...!
