Spot on, Jindal as a Dem would work.
@Raoul will you vote this election if it comes down to Trump or Carson? It most likely will boil down to Rubio or Cruz but you never know with Repubs.
2016 US Presidential Elections | Trump Wins
- Thread starter Raoul
- Start date

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?!

Not directly related to the Presidential elections...but, the Supreme court has refused to hear any abortion cases since 2007 - and this could get interesting as a ruling will come sometime next June.
I'll be voting for Hillary.
Why even bother? You live in CA don't you?
Piece of mind and a sense of participation in the process. I know my vote won't change anything in terms of CA.
I am forecasting Carson's poll numbers will climb after he blames Muslims for what happened in Paris.
Yeah, and on top of that the absolute number of votes always adds legitimacy to the process. I voted for a party with no chance of electing a representative in my circle, yet the party had a surprisingly good result overall, and I feel I'm part of it. On top of the practical matter of the number of representatives, the fact that 10% of voters voted for them is constantly mentioned and used as a political argument. If only the "useful" votes counted in that regard, the number would be significantly lower.
Even deep down, I'm sure someone like George Bush must have felt some kind of subtle and personal embarrassment for winning the election with fewer votes than Al Gore.
Minnesota always goes Dem...well in recent times anyways. But yet I still vote straight Dem because I want to be part of the process.
I fear Trump is about to hit a tipping point with his bizarre Carson rants, to where he will finally begin to slide. If that happens and its Carson alone at the top, the likes of Cruz and Rubio will smell blood and begin to go after him, which will be the end of him, leaving just the other two. That's probably the only plausible negative scenario for the Dems - two younger, more energetic candidates competing against Hillary.
I think every Republican candidate and perhaps even Hillary will take a hard stance against it now. Not everyone will blame Muslims outright but I doubt any Muslims in US are going to like the election rhetoric from both parties.
This will definitely tip the election towards anyone with hawkish views, Hillary included.
In teh end it will be about teh platform. And Hillary will have Obama, Bill...and Sanders next to her. She will be fine.
I don't think Cruz will make it when Trump and Carson drop out. He's absolutely detested by the establishment and Rubio according to most polls are the overwhelming 2nd choice for supporters of others anyway.
Formidable for sure, the slimy bastard knows how to work the camera. Won't fancy Hillary against him in a debate.

I dread to think of the solutions some of the candidates may think up... But I can forsee Trump having a plan
Whats all this California being broken into six states nonsense?
Democratic debate on now. Sanders looks pissed that the discussion is all about ISIS and not about his economic schtick.
Never heard it before.
All individual votes are symbolic. I'll be writing in Sanders after he loses to the Clinton Machine.
Yea. I heard the Republicans were trying toi get this done...as usual. Cannot win honestly...so try and do this type of nonsense. They failed of course.

Interesting graph from 538 liveblog
O'Malley is doing well.
good on you Sanders about Wall Street attack
Cool you live in MN? I go to school here.
MN has actually consistently voted dem since the 70's.
both Sanders and O'Malley attacking Hillary...good to see.
Hillary holding her own. Can't see anyone beating her for the Dem nomination.
She will be the nominee...but she is getting shown up by the other two. But she will be the President because the Republicans are a 100 times worse than her.
Did anyone see the Jeb Bush interview on MTP? This is how poor journalism is in this country. The first question should have been. "Do you think we would have ISIS in Iraq if we had not invaded that country?" He was never asked this question.
Ted Cruz want to introduce a bill banning Muslim refugees from entering the USA.
Seriously... Wow what a messed up country that such bigoted people can get in power.
They should introduce a bill banning Canadians that look like Grandpa Munster while they're at it.
now that the few days are over wait for the GOP to go Muslim bashing....
Some more evidence against the idea that Trump's support is limited to his current 25%:
As off a few hous ago, 24 governors say they want nothing to do with refugees.
Sad state of affairs. Don't know how Americans feel about this.

legally I don't see how the states can prevent someone who is legally allowed into the US be denied into any particular state. We don't have border patrols between states.

Can't deny entry, stay, etc. but when refugee resettlement is going on normally its involves collaboration between federal, state and local governments as well as non-profit groups.

It can backfire. The image of a mother and child being denied assistance. Food/medicine.
