Hillary will blow out Cruz or Trump which is why neither will be the GOP nominee.

Hillary will blow out Ryan too after Trump and Cruz are passed over. The GOP is fucked most of the Koch money will go towards house seats, states, counties, and municipalities.

Hillary will when a decent share of neoconservative voters.

The question is if she's the nominee will she be a down ticket disaster or beast.

She will likely be the nominee.

I have no idea.

No matter if it's Hillary or Bernie IMO the Democrats will get 8 more years.

fucking election if we just nominate him.

We dont get chances like this often.

I mean I am hearing people who 6 months ago laughed off the idea of Bernie because of the Socialist tag who are now saying they would prefer him to some.

But he can't win round 1, so it's irrelevant.

It's like in sports when the two strongest team meet in the conference championship.

into having knee jerk reactions to certain terms, like socialist.

That Bernie has gone this far and that he actually would win.

The reason why he's losing to Hillary is because Democrats think she would make a better President.

Simple.

They already know who it will be.....this may give them an advantage in the General.... I have always had a feeling of uneasiness with this GOP Primary.... They are running a bait and switch scheme ...and Kasich knows all about it...not sure where he fits in the mix....he has been too coy and relaxed through what usually is a major life stressor, a National Campaign..... Yea, there is a bait and switch going down.. Thinking there will be less time for Democrats to prepare a GE battle.
