In states instead of delegates? Weird standard. But, done NY

Clinton has won 6 contests to Bernie with 4.

Clinton: PA, MD, CT, DE, Guam, KY
Sanders: RI, IN, WV, OR

Clinton should also take both the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico before June 7th.

Sure, I can answer both questions

1) Assuming how asking me about what the MOE days and his it works in polling, I'm going to refer you to a primer I wrote earlier this year:

If, instead, you're actually asking how to mathematically calculate one, let me know, and I'll put together a post to explain it.

2) Nuke it from orbit. Only way to be sure.

My wife, who is Asian, had the following to say about Jeb Bush

And I quote, "He can go fuck himself."

So, he's made massive inroads with the Asian community in my household.

Clarence Thomas indicates Supreme Court will decide for gay marriage

"May well be seen as a signal of the court's intended resolution."

That is an excerpt from Clarence Thomas and Scalia dissent from the Supreme Court's denial to halt same sex marriage in Alabama. That's right, even Thomas and Scalia, in writing, know how the question will be answered.

Folks, this is going to be a great year for LGBT rights here in the States.

You know what? I am done with this stupid winter...

I live in Buffalo, so I already had my fill after the November snowpocalypse event. However, we have now has almost a month straight of well below freezing temperatures and an additional four feet of snow. The piles at the end of my driveway are now so high that my snowblower can't throw that horrible gray road snow slop on top on the mounds. It just kind of pfffts out of the blower, hits the side of the pile and sadly tumbles back down into the driveway.

I have snowblowed seven times in the last 3 days. Last night was windy and snowy, so when I got up this morning I not only had fresh snow to deal with but also previously thrown snow cheerfully waving at me from its second trip into the driveway. And you know what I did? I just ignored it. I just decided the snow could lay claim to my house--I mean, good lord, it had already claimed squatting rights on the roof.

I ate, got the fam up and walked outside into a blinding sideways snow storm. And I simply got in my AWD and backed over some of those fucking mounds on my way out. I would like to imagine I heard them scream when they saw the tires instead of a shovel or blower.

So, yes, I will be spending Friday evening digging out yet again. And according to the weather, I can expect a high temperature in the mid twenties once or twice sometime in the next ten days. But you know the worst (and absolutely true) part? I somehow managed to convince both my wife and myself that we should move back here while living in Hawaii. I mean, what the hell, man...
