Yes, everything is a smoldering ruin, but I was too silly and too proud to vote for the only SANE TICKET, and the ONLY TICKET that could actually win against tRump. But I did look fucking COOL in front of my friends. They all thought I was super bad-ass.

Sorry kids!

Danny are you done roasting those crickets yet?





thank god we won't have to see this because 90% of Bernie supporters are SANE, and nothing like the spoiled little jackasses we saw paraded on tv yesterday

behavior she saw. Like almost ready to be throwing things at the tv pissed. (Told her to feel free to throw things at her own TV when she goes home, lol) She said they were hurting the movement and she was right. They made her so mad she signed up to volunteer for HRC. Which, trust me, was a big step for her. She supported Obama in 08' and 12' then Bernie soooo . . . .

Most people out here are sane and I'm sick of MSNBC looking for every crank and loony-tune they can find just for "drama."

Oh, and nice to see you O-town Steve

So many DUers that do things that keep the DU and or the party from uniting.

Those stamping their feet have nothing to do with bad news like this from today below.

Sorry it is wikipedia as a source. But it is correct.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election_in_Missouri,_2008

Missouri was won by Republican nominee John McCain by just shy of 4,000 votes, a 0.1% margin of victory.

For the better part of a century, Missouri has been reckoned as the nation's bellwether state. Prior to 2008, since 1904, Missouri had voted for the winner in every presidential election except in 1956 when the state narrowly voted for Democrat Adlai Stevenson of neighboring Illinois over incumbent Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower. In recent years, however, it has gradually been trending Republican. Although Bill Clinton of neighboring Arkansas won the state with ease during both of his elections in 1992 and 1996, Al Gore and John Kerry considered the Show-Me State a lost cause and did not campaign much there. Although Barack Obama is from neighboring Illinois, at first he likewise put the state as a secondary concern in relation to other swing states such as Ohio and Virginia where he thought he had more of a chance. As his lead diminished in the summer months, he and McCain moved the campaign to more Democratic-friendly states, as McCain maintained a comfortable polling lead in Missouri. Similar hypothetical general match-up polls taken between McCain and Hillary Rodham Clinton, however, showed Clinton always leading in Missouri.

Secondly, it over states Gary Johnson. He'll have less than 2% when all is said and done.
