The young ones were pretty strongly out for Sanders. Wonder if Hillary can get them to turn out to vote if she gets the nomination.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!

Hillary and Trump were the biggest losers yesterday.
Rubio and Sanders were the biggest winners.
Rubio and Sanders were the biggest winners.
Super Tuesday on March 1 will pretty much decide it. Still no real polls for those primaries.
Nah. Obama is a one off candidate who comes along once in 30 years or so.
Great speech.
She won in one of Sanders best states demographically, not sure how she lost.
I feel that when all is said and done Rubio is the GOP's best chance to win a national election.
Sanders showed everyone yesterday that he is for real.
So as predicted, it was the younger folk who went for Sanders whereas the old-timers went for Clinton, 68% of over 65s went for her
Shows the US Democrat party may have a more hopeful future and possibly break away from its corporatocracy in favour of grassroots democracy. Really hope Sanders can push shillary all the way.
That doesn't bode well for the general election. If younger people aren't energized by her then they won't turn out which could doom her in the swing states. Especially if Rubio is the GOP nominee.
she was expected to win this easy. she did not and may still lose when all votes are counted. we will know only next week. she will lose NH. His supporters hate her as much as a republican. She still has the email probe that Rubio has already used.
so far everyone is saying the black vote is her firewall. If Sanders wins NH, there is a lot of time for him to show he can win the elections.
yes. Sanders has momentum. Shades of 2008.
Hillary is lucky Elizabeth Warren isn't running. She would crush her with a Sanders-esque platform.
I agree. A Sanders-Warren ticket may well be unbeatable.
That raises an interesting question, if Sanders does the unthinkable and wins the nomination, who will he have as his running mate? A female VP would probably be a safe bet.
Warren is 66. Democrats dont have any young politicians seeming to come through.
All the young up and comers in DC seem to be from the tea party who have stolen the narrative and airwaves since 2010.

I've heard some good things about Heather Mizeur and Kamala Harris, both relatively young (OK not perhaps not Harris but I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel here). Otherwise yes, not much in terms of young female politicians. Warren is pretty much the best of the lot.
Sorry lads. Did not expect Joe Kennedy III picture to be so big.
Kill it with fire!!!
15 hours and no tweets from The Don
I get it's only 10.30 AM...but, is Don running low on energy? Has anyone checked on him? Is he ok?

If Sanders were to get Warren as his running mate, they would run away with the election.
Warren is inspirational....and would take all the wind out of Hillary's "I'm a woman so vote for me" platform.
Cruz can't lurch to the center in the general. He might win hard-liners in his party but he won't win moderates nationwide.
When Warren speaks, she is very convincing. Both she and Sanders...the reason is they believe what they are saying. The passion come through.
Though many may think this will be a losing ticket, I tend to agree with you.
agree. Rubio will be their best bet. But even then, the electrol map is against them.
Sanders is like a charismatic Jeremy Corbyn.
Republicans will need to win 2 of Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida. PA is almost guaranteed blue so it comes down to Ohio and Florida, both of whom have been shifting Democrat over the last few elections. It will be difficult.
Cruz opposed Ethanol subsidies in Iowa as the only candidate. He is - at least to a reasonable degree - a believer in his ideology and won´t be looking for too many compromises. If he wins the nomination, he won´t move to far to the center.
They would also have to win Virginia, which went for Obama twice.
Yup. No chance he shifts at all if he gets the nomination, instead he's likely to double down on the craziness. His appeal is his fecked up ideology. If he shifts from that...he has NOTHING.

True, but I think that was partly to due with Obama energizing the black vote. Has to be seen if the next Democrat can do that.
I'd fully expect Obama to campaign for either one of the dems.
Sure, but that's not the same thing. Bill Clinton's out campaigning for Hillary but if he was running himself he'd be the nominee by a landslide.
Bill is being quiet for now but he'll be out in full force when the time comes.
No they wouldn't. If anything, it would put him on par with Rubio Or Cruz and whoever their running mate is.
Is Sanders for real of just a scam like Obama?
when shit sounds too good to be true, there's hidden cat.
does he has hidden agenda behind all his nice ideas and thoughts? Its so hard to trust in politics now a days.
i've been sending all my positive mental power to Bernie, so i hope he is the real deal and not businessmen's plan B or C.

I'd love some verifiable sources on that Carson accusation.. twould make things very interesting.
He's also sane, which helps.

My experience in Iowa was a great one. I started out with all of the experts saying I couldn't do well there and ended up in 2nd place. Nice
Donald J. Trump@realDonaldTrump26m26 minutes ago
Because I was told I could not do well in Iowa, I spent very little there - a fraction of Cruz & Rubio. Came in a strong second. Great honor
Donald J. Trump@realDonaldTrump11m11 minutes ago
The media has not covered my long-shot great finish in Iowa fairly. Brought in record voters and got second highest vote total in history!
Donald J. Trump@realDonaldTrump6m6 minutes ago
I will be talking about my wonderful experience in Iowa and the simultaneous unfair treatment by the media-later in New Hampshire. Big crowd

I don't believe I have been given any credit by the voters for self-funding my campaign, the only one. I will keep doing, but not worth it!
