Clinton's chances are not that high.

Huh? Clinton's chances are much higher in my opinion. I'd say 85 or 90%. Or is that what you were saying?


LOL Al Gore!

If Clinton has a scandal that makes her drop out, then it wouldn't be a surprise for a Biden or Gore to try to enter and win the nomination.

I think she's vunerable, but I doubt she'll drop out.

She won't drop but I'm saying she isn't a lock. There are too many people that don't like her. She isn't as strong of a candidate than she was 8 years ago.

WTF is with that guy. Please tell me that he has zero chance of becoming POTUS.  :suicide2:

So many idiots in this country, but the GOP has pretty much said they would not let him get the nomination.  He might run 3rd party but he wouldn't win in that case.

The funny thing is that the GOP is actually working harder to prevent Ted Cruz from being their nominee and even praising Trump to do that. Crazy stuff.

But don't worry, there's a better chance of RobR coming back and gracing us with his presence than Donald Trump winning the presidency.

He seems to have Palin's support, which I assume counts for something?

Oh, and sorry I haven't been here much. Work got in the way a bit.

No sorry necessary. Glad you have a chance to stop by.


And Palin isn't quite so popular any more, and what popularity she has probably overlaps with Trump's quite a bit.

I really doubt Trump gets the Republican nomination, there are lots of reasons to think he won't even though he appears to be a front runner now. And if somehow he does, there's really no way he actually wins the Presidency. He is really popular with a smaller group of people and really unpopular with a much larger group.

Overall the political climate within the GOP is fucking ridiculous. I don't know if I could vote for any of the top 5. On the other side of the isle, same thing - I would not vote for either Sanders or Clinton :(
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Not to open a crazy political thread... but I'm curious.  I get why some won't vote for Hillary.  But I'm honestly curious what you don't like about Sanders?  Too much of a socialist?
