Reply #12: Uh ..... the popular vote split so far?

[Stinky The Clown]

Just sayin'

Edit to add ..... no I am NOT asserting that the popular vote carries weight apart from stuff like this. He has the delegates and that's all that matters. I'm not a fan of moving goal posts and crazy people like McAuliffe telling us not to believe what our eyes and heads tell us.

Edit again to add this from Real Clear Politics:

Popular Vote Total Obama: 16,003,521 49.5% Clinton: 15,266,942 47.3%

They then do permutations of this with and without Florida and Michigan and with estimates for Iowa, Nevada, Maine, and Washington (State). The percentages don't change much.

The winner per the rules is the winner and I hope everyone gets behind him, but those people who voted for Clinton probably vary widely in their 'like' for Obama. I expect the flip is true for Obama voters.

There's been a great deal of antipathy built up in this cycle. Both, in my view have fanned it, but she's been far better (worse?) at it than he has.

And then there are people like me who never wanted either one of them and saw no reason whatever to flip to them when the race was down to two. I still see no reason to support either one except for the D after their name. And I will vote for the eventual nominee, no matter who it is. I may even work for the nominee.

For a party that was supposed to be an embarrassment of riches with respect to the candidates this cycle, I can honestly say that none of then fired me up. I had a horse. He didn't get past the quarter pole. Good thing it was only a two dollar bet.
