Mass was stolen
Nevada was stolen
The polls are rigged

Okay, let's take a trip down that rabbit hole of confused reasoning for a moment: when Hillary gets facerolled in November, it'll be all her fault, right? Or will we be hearing "the Bernie voters betrayed her by staying home! Young voters are to blame! The damn Republican working class votes against its own interest!"

I know which way I'd place my bet...

I'm pretty insufferable, actually, a typical over-educated, arrogant bit...er...academic. But I seldom "do condescending" here (alert swarms, don'tcha know), and that wasn't an attempt. It wasn't condescension, it was disparagement. Happy to clear that up for you.

I guess I understand the anger...you never really had a chance. But enjoy your newfound freedom to respond with whatever infantile rejoinder you manage to puzzle out, free from any fear of return fire: you're going on Ignore as soon as I send this reply. You crossed a line.

Have fun celebrating your crushing defeat in November. I will quite probably un-Ignore you for a bit to rub it in.

Don't you just love the way polls matter when it's Hi11ary "in the lead"?

But let's just ignore the polls that show Bernie beating ALL of the Republican candidates. Let's just ignore Bernie's massive crowds and astonishing small donor support. Let's just ignore how the Clinton machine is using Rovian tactics to denigrate Bernie.

However, yesterday when I went to the polls with my mom, there were a lot of high school seniors/college freshmen looking african american adults voting. I was shocked because in all of my years voting in this area, I've never seen such turnout of young people early voting. We'll see how that pans out in the end.
