2016 Presidential Horse Race

[GoIrish41]

This is probably True...

But the returns from Philly last 2 cycles were funny. Mccain got zero votes in 57 divisions and Romney got zero votes in 59. You mean to tell me there wasn't a single conservative latino vote in any of those divisions? Thats not the Philly I know. Numerous Cuban and Puerto Rican families throughout the city is what I recall, and chances are some are conservative.

At the very least someone needs to ask some questions and maybe provide some supervision there, because I think it is possible you have either fraud or intimidation to come up with that many 0s.

When gerrymandering goes bad ...

I think rationalizing Hillary cheating in any form is no different than kmoose rationalizing some of the things the Donald says.

She's not going to cheat, there's no evidence that she's cheating, and she shouldn't cheat. She'll still win PA. Trump's just trying to rile people up.

The Journal urged Trump's backers to push the candidate to conduct himself with a more presidential demeanor and begin running a more disciplined campaign.

"If they can’t get Mr. Trump to change his act by Labor Day, the GOP will have no choice but to write off the nominee as hopeless and focus on salvaging the Senate and House and other down-ballot races," it said.

Fix campaign or step aside, Wall Street Journal tells Trump | Reuters

AMEN!

I think the GOP should dump him fast. I'm not sure how late they can change the ballot.

I think that I read that its Sept. 1 to get on a majority of state ballots, although not every state. Dumping Trump is conceding victory in the presidential race no matter when it happens, but certainly the longer they wait, the worse it will be.

Funny story. Back when I was still a student, my professor pulled up a random Illinois Congressional District to illustrate how ridiculous gerrymandering can be. I received a glare after laughing at my District being highlighted as being particularly awful.

If you live in Austin, you're in the belly of the gerrymandering beast. That (extremely liberal) place has been chopped up like no other city in the country.

Nah. I grew up in Illinois. Everything is sliced up there to keep the Chicago machine in power.

Well Austin is notoriously gerrymandered. It's bad.

I maintain that what Google has been doing is unethical.

I just tried typing "Trump is" in Google, and the results are strikingly different...

I did the same and didn't think they were that different. The second result is "Donald Trump is Awesome" and the fifth one is "Donald Trump is Batman." The others are more negative...(making america meaner, orange, and a rotten sweet potato).

Which result (Yahoo or Google) do you think actually reflects what people are searching for most often when it comes to Hillary?

On mine, Trump gets:
-making American meaner
-awesome
-a rotten sweet potato
-no Ronald Reagan

On Hillary:
-a man
-awesome

I mean... Trump's results include three discreet, targeted attacks on him. Hillary's don't.

Isn't calling her a man an attack?

Interesting. I didn't get the Reagan thing and I got the batman thing, which I read as positive. What were your next couple on Hillary?

I don't know the algorithms. I can believe that there would be some shenanigans here (though "Hillary Clinton is a man" seems like an intentional negative to me). But it wasn't as cut and dried as the original post when I typed it into my own google machine.

 

[BGIF]

Depends upon the search engine.

Bing
Trump is:
idiot
racist
issues
the antichrist
dangerous
not a racist
a liberal
not a billionaire


Bing
Hillary is:
a lying criminal
45 (???)
America
a disaster
a career criminal

Depends which bathroom she uses.

But then, she doesn't need one.

She took longer because she used both bathrooms ...

Can be both, no?

I only got two. That's what I thought was most weird of all. It was as if there was nothing nice to say, so they truncated mean things?

 

[gkIrish]

I get 3 positive, 1 negative "Hillary Clinton is" results.

I get 3 negative, 1 positive "Donald Trump is" results.

Hillary only goes to the bathroom to check her server.

I get 3 positive, 1 negative "Hillary Clinton is" results.

I get 3 negative, 1 positive "Donald Trump is" results.

Donald Segretti in Blue?

Weird.

I just tried it with Joe Biden...no joke, the first result was "Joe Biden is Donald Trump."

Barack Obama is a shapeshifter or is your new bicycle.

I think it might be an inexact algorithm.

Hillary is ...
- toast
- America
- a man
- winning

Trump is ...
- winning
- losing
- awesome
- ... love, Trump is life

3 positive and 1 negative for Trump, 2 and 2 for Clinton on my search.

She's not going to cheat, there's no evidence that she's cheating, and she shouldn't cheat. She'll still win PA. Trump's just trying to rile people up.

There's ample evidence that she cheated in the Primary......... Not necessarily voter fraud, but certainly colluding with the media to make an opponent look bad should be considered cheating.
