salve? an apology doesn't do much to change the increasing chances of a Drumpf presidency.
Assange could do the world a favor if he really has such emails and release them right now. Can't imagine that guy is much of a fan of the orange turd.

That mystifies me, too. If he expects to see a Sanders candidacy, I think he's dreaming, and I can't see how he could see a Trump victory as good for the United States or the world.
Clearly, he must realize that the intelligent and virtuous choice is a climber for president. Vote Johnson/Weld!

naw moose.... I'm an idiot. Not really young either ;).
make no mistake I'm voting for the democrat. But geezus.... what was once an insurmountable lead is now gone. If she doesn't get a convention bump then it's over.
Though I suppose there's still tons of time for the orange turd to blow it. But counting on your opponent to step on his dik is bad strategy. doesn't seem to matter when he does anyway.
Edit: awe... Norton. Yeah, I still miss her a ton. I didn't get another dog. Maybe one day. Aya has Rockstar and he's a really awesome boy. My favorite boy dog ever.

seems the site is changing hourly. but the numbers i posted are what's on there at this moment. And about an hour ago it was 58% drumpf (for less than 5 minutes).
the sky isn't falling. But she should be kicking the orange turds ass. Meanwhile she's doing stupid sh#t like hiring DWS.
i've been watching daily and it's making me want to vomit. 80.3% on June 29th... poooof!
Agreed about after this week. Especially once the super delegates bail and the name in blue changes ;)

What you posted is the immediate, largely emotional response.
You should check out the others by using those buttons in the margin.
Be more optimistic!

actually, the latest nationally polling is showing almost a dead heat with some polls Donald ahead
the much more important swing state polls that will deliver the Electoral Votes to be President don't get taken as often as the national polls
I suppose the reason is damn near all American voting adults do not recall ever getting educated on what and the importance of the Electoral College, probably because they were watching Married with Children instead
anyway, let's see what the swing state polls say in about two weeks after things settle down
the conventional wisdom is that we return to pre convention levels which would show Hillary with a not tiny, but small 2-5% lead in most swing states, putting her odds of being President back around 70 and 30 for The Donald

what button?!
And I liked it better when she was 75% likely to win Colorado. I seriously want to be able to write in Frank Zappa (Did that the last two times a Clinton ran for office)

Hillary Clinton’s campaign is pulling its television advertisements from Colorado, at least temporarily, after building a sizable and durable lead in the traditional battleground state.
The decision could reflect increasing confidence about Clinton’s chances to capture Colorado’s nine electoral votes in the fall. But a Clinton campaign official, granted anonymity to discuss the campaign's internal operations, stressed the campaign's advertising strategy against Donald Trump will change constantly over the next three months.
Colorado was part of the Clinton campaign’s initial, general-election advertising campaign, which began in mid-June and cost at least $22 million. But Monday is the final day of that ad buy.

This hand wringing is pretty pointless right now...the polls aren't going to stabilize much and become reasonably reliable for another couple of weeks. Gotta get past the Conventions by a few weeks.
