Admiral Loinpresser's JournalIs your state Democratic Party one of the 32 sellouts?
This is a follow-up to an OP cited at the very bottom. But to discover what the "Hillary Victory Fund" is and why it is so sleazy, you should read this WaPo article:

Bottom line: 32 states were persuaded/coerced into this infamous cabal last year. Here they are listed with the source being Hillary's website (see very bottom of linked page):
AK, AR, CO, FL, GA, ID, IN, KY, LA, ME, MA, MI, MN, MS, MO, MT, NV, NH, NC, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, TN, TX, UT, VA, WV, WI, and WY

Trump attacks Pope, uses subjunctive mood, shocks linguists.
AP
February 18, 2016. Las Vegas, Nevada.
In a surprise move, Donald Trump utilized the subjunctive mood in expressing himself regarding the Pope today. Linguists , who previously had analyzed his syntax, grammar and vocabulary in declaring he spoke like a fifth grader, had to frantically repeat their analyses in order to re-calculate, this time including his comments published today.
We have to admit, he may be able to express himself like a high schooler, said professor Balden Snooty, from the campus at the University of Las Vegas. But our computer analysis has been upgraded to include emotional age as well. Emotionally, hes still a fifth grader.

Corporate Media's best kept secret.
I find it amusing that the CCM (Corporate Controlled Media) are so afraid of Bernie. On both election night speeches (Iowa and NH), Bernie has made a point of declaring the CCM antipathy for him. What is even funnier, in NH not only did he lambast the CCM, but then used them as a conduit to do a fundraiser yielding about $7M in 24 hours.
They keep pretending he didn't say those unflattering things about them because his favorability ratings are so much higher than theirs and so they don't want to draw attention to a media attack from the left-very embarrassing and not good for business.
The truth about health care.
Hillary's attack on universal healthcare based on unicorn analysis.
"It's indisputable that single-payer systems in other countries cover everyone for virtually everything, and at much lower cost than our health care system," Woolhandler said. "Experience in countries with single-payer systems, such as Canada, Scotland, and Taiwan, proves that we can have more, better and cheaper care."
For example, "if the U.S. moved to a single-payer system as efficient as Canada's, we'd save $430 billion on useless paperwork and insurance companies' outrageous profits, more than enough to cover the 31 million Americans who remain uninsured, and to eliminate co-payments and deductibles for everyone," she said.
In January, Woolhandler and her colleague Dr. David Himmelstein authored a response to Thorpe's analysis that found it to be based on "several incorrect, and occasionally outlandish, assumptions," including "administrative savings of only 4.7 percent of expenditures" and "huge increases in the utilization of care, increases far beyond those that were seen when national health insurance was implemented in Canada, and much larger than is possible given the supply of doctors and hospital beds."
"Moreover, it is at odds with analyses of the costs of single-payer programs that he produced in the past, which projected large savings from such reform," the professors wrote.
