    I've noticed that The Republicans have gone to "winner take all" in their primaries, while Idiot Dems chose to stick with proportional delegates. The only change that it appears Idiot Dems made was to move the super-delegates to second ballot. This is likely why you hear of people talking about a brokered convention. ---If it does occur that way, Idiot Dems will soon understand why most states use "winner take all" in the Electoral College and why the founders went with a republic rather than a democracy .----Basically, you could have a mess otherwise. ----Let's not forget though that convention rules are subject to change and they could easily move the super-delegates back to first ballot if it looks like someone may win whom the DNC doesn't want to win.

  2. All this Amy Klobuchar buzz- and that it will probably show in the NH- results is headed nowhere. It is just another sign that every dog has his/her day when people are casting around trying to find anything or anyone that is not Bernie or Biden. Bernie is having his high point, Biden had his, Warren had her surge for a while, Pete did, Skank did after she trashed Joe at one debate. It's just rotational shiite and casting about. Bloomberg will get some surge at some point because it will be his turn.

    So all the mini-excitement about Klobobabuska is actually a problem not an opportunity. She just helps to keep the votes split so that the dems can continue on the road to brokered convention and that is not pretty.

    Most likely one of the tard savants will pipe up and say that she would make a great VP for Bernie. Ahhh no. tard. Sit down and think about who the only person on the debate stage to raise his/her hand and say that they were opposed to the "democratic socialist" and electing a nominee with that party label was. That's right. Usual Tard's favorite Dutch Aunt- Amy Klobo.

    What a complete shiite-the-bed mess this dem primary process is turning out to be. Just no way to pretty this dumpster fire up.

  3. Yeh, those rules are still "evolving" for sure.

    The dnc will try to get to the second ballot to do their dirty work though. Not only do the dnc puppetdelegates kick in but the other delegates are released from commitment to their home states to vote as the locals elections directed.

    What a mess.

  5. Camp Obama and Camp Clinton have always had a strained relationship, but you have to believe that there will be some rallying around the flag pole with the dnc after two straight wins for Bernie at the popular vote level.

    The problem with Bernie is that he a ground game and money all the way forward. Biden has a game in SC but not much money or other plan. Booty, and Klobo are doing excellent but have no clue what they are going to do beyond New Hampshire. Warren's plan is to hold on to see if the dnc is successful in bringing Bernie down and then lap up some of those votes. It is the right idea, if you think Bernie will eventually go down. If you don't well then she will be in a world of hurt. You can see she is dead now down at third or fourth, except no one thinks that anyone above her: Bernie, Biden who used to be above her, Klobo or Booty are going to be the nominee. Can't have it every which way. Something's got to give.

    Right now, the entire structure of the 2020 race is dependent on Bernie's ticker holding up.


    "because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don't know we don't know."
