When he wins the ticket no one in the media is going to call Biden out on all the off the wall things he says. As we seen over the past 2 weeks...

democrats dont care if he's crazy, acting like he's crazy or dont know which election he's running for. The media is going to push Biden and make him look like the 2nd coming of Reagan, JFK and Obama. Especially in those battle ground states, the ones that really matter...

Trump, the racist, will be shouted so often the closer we get to Nov. Every little thing Trump says that can be twisted will be. Biden can come out threaten to stop fracking, shutdown all coal, and open the border, on the campaign trial. The press will never question him on it and it will never get the air time. Hell Trump can say black Friday is going to be huge. The media will scream, racist, because Trump said black. Some people are getting too caught up in twitter reactions...the same way democrats did with Trump. Causing them to believe Hillary was going to win easily.

Sanders going down like he has and democrats falling in line for Biden...is not good news for Trump

Yep, good post. This is a 50/50 election.

It won't be close. Real investigations into Ukraine corruption are going to get started just as soon as it is clear that Biden is the guy and Hunter and Joe are going to truly be exposed.

yep.....watching the bs fly from the msm this morn' reminds me of '15/'16 redux....

it's been nothing but more 'rah rah reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, kick 'em in the knee' as they continue to ignore the 'real' coming on the horizon....

Where is our resident doe eyed Bernie enthusiast to wax poetic about last night’s results?

Well stink looks like we won't have a sig bet and Trump's gonna win a LANDSLIDE victory. I'll enjoy watching Trump land all the body blows on Slow Joe that the MSM did their best to hide. Being the biggest advocate for cutting SS and Medicare of anyone in the Senate, supporting segregationist, voting for the war in Iraq, supporting every awful trade deal, being senile, etc. This will be a cake walk. Hope there is an interesting Libertarian candidate who can make a real run at 5%.

There he is!

Right here. The establishment of the DNC won this battle, Trump will win a Mondale level landslide, and this is what the DNC leadership deserves.

Main thing I was wrong about is I thought the DNC was as inept as they are corrupt. They are inept at everything, except when it comes to rallying to attempt to save their seats at the levers of power. They did that with an amazing level of coordination and quickly. Oh well **** them.

however, I still think it's a coin flip relative to a contested convention...

the only real question I have remaining is if yes, does the bern apply the burn to the donks...

If Bernie launches a third party candidacy, it would be the biggest eff-you to the DNC. I am all in on that. I mean, what does he have to lose? He'll continue winning his Senate seat as long as he wants, and he isn't running for POTUS again after this year, so why not?

Biden may not win on the 1st ballot, but the Super Delegates will put him over the top.

Of course, nothing is certain. Biden could get so bad everybody but the DNC and MSM could have to admit he is senile. Or Bernie could have another heart attack.

He won’t. He’ll take the same lump sum buyout he took in 2016.

Trump will not win on a landslide level. The race will come down to the same handful of states it came down to last time... Michigan, Wisconsin, Florida & Pennsylvania.

The idea of the DNC steering the race to Biden is silly. Biden was underfunded and had no ground game. If he was the choice of the DNC, they certainly weren’t channeling money and support to him. The bottom line is the South Carolina proved Biden could win the nomination and those folks on the fence rallied around him. The party is still not ready for a democratic socialist or a self-funded billionaire to head the ticket, and the moderates largely rallied around him. Blacks and suburban, college educated women overwhelmingly preferred Biden to Bernie... and 18-29 again did not show up.

I beg to differ.. The blue candidate will probably win big in NY, NJ, and California as per tradition the last few years.

I would venture to say it'll be a tight race in PA with Biden being a native son, but Trump will win. If it's Bernie, Trump wins no problem.

Michigan will be tight.. Wisconsin will be red no questions.

Florida will be red no questions.

We said this in 2016, this could've been the year the Dems could've charged their party with a young go getter.. There were a few.. Yang.. Mayor Pete.. Tulsi..

But the party that says rich old white men shouldn't be president has 3 rich old white men and a fake Native American in the running right now.

Buckle up Mensa.. The next 4 years are gonna be fun bud.

LOL if you think the coordination of Obama calling up CIA Pete and everyone quitting and the MSM praise isn't all that then you are just blind, stupid or both. All of a sudden people who a week ago were ready to fight to a contested convention dropped out within hours of each other. Yep nothing to see there at all.

The other interesting thing to watch is will Bernie Sanders actually come after him hard? You wonder if that will happen - they do seem to be buddies from the Senate. I know his crazies will attack him online (and by crazies I don't mean the few folks here on this site who like him - they don't fit into that category - but he's got plenty of true crazies who love him on social media).

One stunning local race last night was the Republican primary for House Seat 22. Troy Nehls (who quit his job as Fort Bend Sheriff to run for the seat) won and avoided a runoff with like 52 percent of the vote. He beat a huge field of bigger names including Kathaleen Wall who has a rich husband and cute last name, but who is now officially the Hillary Clinton of the local Republican Party having proven no one can stand her. Pierce Bush (grandson of George - one of Neil's kids) also was in the teens in terms of votes, but he's young so it's too early to cast off all his future political aspirations. I still think Dems can win that seat in November (they have a strong candidate who won like 60 percent of the primary vote himself), but Nehls is going to be a much tougher candidate than I would have expected).

ETA - whoops totally forgot to look at the other counties for House Seat 22. Once you add in Harris and Brazoria County votes, Nehls and Wall are now in a run-off. Still, Nehls got like 41-42 percent overall and will destroy Wall in a run-off election IMO. My description of Wall doesn't change. She's the lady who got shocked by Dan Crenshaw in 2018 in a House seat on the other side of Houston. Doesn't matter which part of town she runs in, no one really likes her or is impressed by her money or last name.

how about TT vs Sesshee in bammers....that was a nice surprise....

I'm certain JR was still licking the bbg off the fingertips after that one....

Its not going to be a 40 state landslide. Enough people hate Trump so much they are certifiable. They would vote for someone like Biden who should be in a locked wing. The left coast and most of the northeast will stay D.

But MN, NV, NM, CO, VA, NH, ME could all go Trump. Maybe even NJ and IL.
