2016 Presidential Horse Race

[RDU Irish]

$25B wall... $2 trillion in Afgan/Iraq.... if you are going to dig holes and fill them back up shouldn't you at least do it in your own backyard? The idea that $25B is somehow insurmountable kind of makes me laugh. Talk effectiveness or ROI but to act like our government hasn't blown A LOT more than $25b on more ridiculous boondoggles is kind of funny to me. Far from a cost prohibitive number.

I would also argue that Trump delegates more on a daily basis than Hillary does in a year. Between his wide range of companies, TV shows, guest appearances, etc - there are only so many hours in the day yet things actually get done. Hillary on the other hand, WTF has she DONE? Positive I mean - I have a pretty good handle on all of her f-ups.

AHA! I found the source of the problem.

I love derailing this thread... I just have to at least attempt it every now and then... that full on culinary thread take over day a few months back was beyond epic.

I honestly don't think I have ever been corrected before today because my grammar and spelling are impeccable. Is impeccable? I dunno.

I dunno either.

I'm a self-taught grammarian.

Or is that "grammarcist?"

Sure, sure; I had nuns rapping my knuckles when I made wise ass remarks since I saw little sense in their diagramming sentences.

I had trouble comprehending. I saw little to no need to, by rote, memorize the silliness.

A dictionary and an attempt at clarity were all I needed as my inspiration to become annoyingly insipid.

Give an old fart some latitude. I'm retired now and have time on my hands to pursue quirks.

Why is your mother such a whore?

Why won't you call her back?

 

[GATTACA!]

Why won't you call her back?

Dorthy Mantooth is a saint!

 

[dshans]

Why don't you make me?

Oh yeah? Oh yeah?

'Cause. That's why!

{Insert "Well, your Momma's so ____" quips here.}



Maybe I'm having too much fun here.

Ahem.

That would be Dorothy.


Just being an equal opportunity asshole ...

So anyways.

What happened to all of those bonus days of Wikileaks? I thought Asange had bombs in his back pocket that he'd be throwing out all week.

I think yesterday's was the donor list.

not sure why he'd waste a good derailment bomb on a train that had not yet made it back to the tracks from the last one...

If it were me, I'd wait until after the convention but before she can enjoy her bounce...

So you're a grandpa who self identifies as a grammar?

I love politics...

You still on campus, homie?

My new office is in Eddy Commons.

Whaaaaat? Nice! Yeah man, still on campus. North side though, right behind the Dome. We'll have to get a beer at Matt's house one of these days...

 

[pkt77242]

I love poutine. There is a great local place by me that does a poutine with house cut fries, pork belly, duck fat gray, cheese curds and 2 over easy eggs. Fucking heaven. Also might give you a heart attack.

Wow Trump up 48-38.5 in New Hampshire

This poll was also taken before the leaks so..

I wonder what they ate for lunch when they went through all the data....

As always with these polls, read the fine print. Over 160 more Republicans were polled than Democrats. If you even those numbers out to say 50% of each (Reps and Dems), and they voted along party lines, Trump would be at 41%, and Clinton would be at roughly 45%, with 13.6% undecided.

Now, I don't know if more Republicans normally come out to vote in New Hampshire than Democrats, but if not, then this poll is really, really weak. As it stands, with a plus/minus margin of error at a whopping -5.1%, it's a bad poll. Anything above 3% should be looked at suspiciously...4% REALLY suspiciously, and anything above 5% is usually trashed or expanded until the number comes down.

Bill Clinton is a better Republican than Donald Trump.
