GOP Convention

Members, please ignore this post.

YeahBaby, you have PM's turned off. I cannot respond to you privately if this is the case. Your options are to allow them so we may discuss the issue, post in public so we can handle it that way, or forgo either and do what you threatened. I'm game for any of these options.

Iuly 23rd, 2016 In the last 9 elections, according to Pew exit polls, the GOP candidate won 21% to 40% of the Hispanic vote. I think Trump will break those limits.

July 23rd, 2016 Pew has Trump with 24% of Hispanics
3 days ago. It will go up when Hillary
starts opening her mouth on a regular
basis. She is the best advertisement
for not voting for her. She has the
charisma and charm of an over ripe
banana.

Hmm. Paco or EB
Trumps is currently polling at 16%

Clinton Enjoys 57-Point Lead over Trump among Hispanics

Clinton is certainly campaigning hard with women and Latinos or both. I think she feels that these demographics are largely the key to her victory. It is difficult to argue with that assumption.

I think we forget that Bill actually beat Obama by 5 electoral college votes while actually receiving 10% less of the popular vote.

1992 election popular vote
43.0% Bill Clinton 370
37.4% H.W. Bush 168
18.9% Ross Perot zero

2008 election popular vote
52.9% Barack Obama 365
45.7% John McCain 173

I wonder if there is a poll of voters who dislike both candidates, but they vote for the one they find least egregious. I have to guess that this election would have the highest number of people in that category.

Maybe a bigger taco bowl? Or perhaps a taco bowl and a burrito?

This statistic from the link above jumped out at me: "NALEO calculates that more than 13.1 million Hispanics will go to the polls in the Nov. 8 election."

Back in June 2015 when Trump referred to Mexican immigrants as "rapists", did Trump realize that 13.1 million Hispanics would be voting? Did he care? That's an enormous number, and it underscores a cold hard truth: Trump can't win Florida. If Trump can't win Florida, he can't become President. Has someone explained this to Trump? Either he is terrible at math or he was never in it to win, he was just in it for the publicity stunt. (Considering his history in bankruptcy court, I'm not ruling out the possibility that he's simply terrible at math.)

Here's right-wing blogger Marc Theissen articulating that Trump's embrace of Putin will cost him the Polish vote. Yes, America has 5.5 million citizens of Eastern European descent, but the Hispanic voting bloc is still much much bigger.

Hey YeahBaby!

How you feeling about your man Trump's chances tonight?

Melania is at a total loss of words
Michele Obama has never been this mad at Barrack :-)

I do not remember on which thread or even if it was here or at wizard of Vegas, but I did make a prediction that Trump would put his foot in his mouth so deep that he would end up with zero electoral vote! Call me Mr. clairvoyant!
