Yah, I know. It's hard to read sarcasm online. Some players just get sore in a certain area in a painful way because they can't take a joke. It's called lube, use it (not directed at you)!

Wow, Sanders is posting a much better margin of victory than I expected.

Also Bush isn't doing terribly.

For a second I thought Sanders and Clinton's percentages didn't add up to 100%, but then I checked myself. Whew!

Her speech certainly sounds like it.
You'd better believe I'm a bitter Bernie Sanders supporter. The Dems fucked up and fucked up hard. Hopefully they'll learn that neoliberalism and maintaining the status quo isn't the way to win this election or any other one. I doubt they will, though.

You know what. I think if you're patient and you go slow, you'll find that the Hillary experience is quite enjoyable. And before you know it, the pace will quicken and you'll get that Chris Matthews up the leg sensation and bam! Your breathing will slow down and you'll look at the sunset and realize President Hillary Clinton really isn't that bad.

I think NH is important, not for reasons of representing the general population, but for increasing Sanders' notoriety and public perception of the plausibility of his campaign, which will factor into SC.

Very true, but I like seeing her lose. Now Sanders must go onto her turf... and win. Otherwise his campaign won't garner enough support and traction to actually have done anything useful; aside from giving her a run for her money.

Yes, nothing is quite as enjoyable as watching a Bernie supporter describe sexist, offensive and frankly gross objectifiying remark as "fun" all the while deriding Hillary for saying people are "too sensitive."

Ah the irony whatever the fuck that is.

I didn't know what schlonged meant, actually. I was referring to it being fun to watch the polling so far, even if they mean nothing.

This is coming from the one who was "Doin' your mom" as "fun."

Guys, it's probably best to just stick to the topic of the thread and not get baited into anybody's immaturity.
