    Been to Idaho, Utah, Minnesota, the Dakotas, etc lately? Just overflowing with blacks and white liberal elites. There's no place they'd rather live, actually.

    But hey, if Rush Limbaugh says something, it must be true. He's so data driven.

    LOL Beebster your frustration is evident. Didn't Obama win the Idaho democratic primary by a vote of 117-98? I'm not a university professor, but I might seek a larger sample size on which to base data, my friend.

    Actually it was 13,504 to 3,376. 40,112 voted for him in Utah. And so forth...

    But it's true, I am frustrated. I admit it. I've gone from watching your brother so plagued by Barack that his regularity was majorly affected to watching the latest in lame, nation-harming swift boating.

    I just really, really do not want to watch a McCain-v-Hillary general election. They actually kind of look alike to me, just visually. Though his voice is more melodious than hers.

    You have got to be kidding me. This nation is incredibly divided, and you are going to declare that one of the candidates has no chance before the conventions?

    Is this you in the picture below?

    It's divided between Clinton and Obama, but look at the participation and interest in the Democratic party's choices for president and the Republican party's choices for president. The difference is stunning, honestly.

    As I've said before, I'll bet anyone on this board anything that they want (tip jar bet, of course) that the Democratic nominee wins. Hell, I'll go one further -- I'll never make a post in the D&D forum again if the Democratic nominee doesn't win.

    Yeah, it sucks to give his type the benefit of the doubt and look foolish on it.

    I'm not going to reward his duplicity by replying to him.

    You must have rushed to your computer to be the first to quote yourself

    Regardless of the outcome, their chance could be deemed 'reasonable'. :D


    (Update: That was a FUGLY pass)

    (Final Update: D*mn... I was all ready for a new sig ;) )

    The Dems have had larger turnout. This may not be indicative of turnout in the general election. There are people turning out to vote against Hillary. There are people turning out because it is a hotly contested primary race. Republicans have turned out just to muck things up (stupid, but true).

    I didn't vote in the Republican primary because I knew who was going to win. I have friends who voted in the Dem primary simply because they feel that their vote really matters this time.

    No guarantee that this holds come November.
