I don't know what Team Four Star is, but they had a couple of million subscribers on YouTube (that's huge) and YouTube just shut them down. -- nm - Mop Feb 23, 22:40
Cruz Missile on the mic -- nm - sweet baboo Feb 23, 22:18 6
- Nobody's dropping out. Republican political operatives are in Hell right now. -- nm - David's iPad Feb 23, 22:23 5
  - Cruz is more likely to win a state next week than Rubio is - crash davis Feb 23, 22:36 4
    - I wonder if he'd drop out if on the outside chance, he lost Texas - Reagen Feb 23, 22:53 3
      - the delegate math alone in that scenario is likely fatal -- nm - sweet baboo Feb 23, 23:00
      - I think tonight makes him 50-50 in Texas. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:55
      - I think that would be a fair argument then -- nm - crash davis Feb 23, 22:55
Trump sounds cockier than normal. - David's iPad Feb 23, 21:53 48
- are cruz and rubio splitting the same demographic? -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 23, 22:18 1
  - No. Some overlap, but by and large two subsets. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:19
- Tonight's a helluva night for night. Lots of good looks in those numbers. - Name Withheld by Request Feb 23, 21:57 45
  - It's quite the bind they're in. - Reagen Feb 23, 22:06 30
    - Megan Fox needs to get on the phone with both of them with an ultimatum offer. -- nm - Max Feb 23, 22:45

    - Fox is starting to get onboard. -- nm - David's iPad Feb 23, 22:14 3
      - Trump advisors are apparently using the word inevitable about his nomination. - David's iPad Feb 23, 22:17 2
        
        If he wins Texas on Tuesday, that might be it. Where would the pendulum swing away from him after that? -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:25 1
        
        Oh, I agree that it's close to inevitable now. -- nm - David's iPad Feb 23, 22:28
    - Trump's (not Rubio's) numbers went up when Jeb! dropped out -- (link) - sweet baboo Feb 23, 22:11 23
      - I'm going to find ST kinda entertaining when Trump beats Clinton by four to five points and lots of EC votes. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:20 22
        
        Bartender, he's had enough. -- nm* - David's iPad Feb 23, 22:21 21
        
        Start at least considering the possibility. Even if tucked away in the back of your mind. - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:24 20
        
        agreed -- nm - Beaker Feb 24, 04:44
        
        In short: Dems are reaaalllly energized to vote against Trump, and a lot of Republicans can't bring themselves to vote for. -- nm - Reagen Feb 23, 22:28 13
        
        as opposed to all of those other candidates that Democrats are reaaaallly energized to vote against. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 24, 04:07 1
        
        Cruz would be similar. Rubio, Kasich, (Bush RIP) wouldn't. -- nm - Reagen Feb 24, 06:07
        
        I'm just saying, Clinton is the wrong Democrat to lure iffy Republicans. Don't date undervalue the motivation there. - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:34 10
        
        you are evaluating her in a vacuum. she will not be campaigning in a vacuum. she and Obama will be joined at the hip from August to Election Day - sweet baboo Feb 23, 22:37 9
        
        Obama on the hustings for a Clinton... And we're seriously concerned about motivated Republicans? - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:40 8
        
        if Obama could run for a third term, he would mop the floor with Trump. he will make the (easy) case to the same voters who elected him twice that -- (edited) - sweet baboo Feb 23, 22:44 2
        
        remember the aftermath of 2012 when they said they'd present a better face to Latino voters - crash davis Feb 23, 22:48 1
        
        [deleted]
        
        The position is more basic. Dude Palin is running for POTUS, and you're arguing that's a winner. -- nm - David's iPad Feb 23, 22:43 4
        
        I don't know that it's a winner. Just that it isn't the auto-loser Democrats want to believe it is. - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:54 3
        
        yup -- nm - Beaker Feb 24, 04:46
        
        [deleted] 1
        
        True. There is analysis that suggests he would be the worst for us. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 23:42
        
        you are delusional - sweet baboo Feb 23, 22:26 1
        
        Your tears will taste the sweetest of all. - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:28
        
        Oh, I have. The electoral math specifically is where he loses any chance. -- nm - David's iPad Feb 23, 22:25 2
        
        It's too late to go into state by state, but knee jerk, that feels overly generous to Clinton. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:26 1
        
        she starts at about 220 before you even get into the swing state math -- nm - sweet baboo Feb 23, 22:27
  - He is winning the demographics that should be the most hostile to him - eag Feb 23, 22:03 13
    - bear in mind that the Democratic share of hispanic voters was double that of the GOPs - Reagen Feb 23, 22:09 12
      - But he is also winning evangelicals and woman - eag Feb 23, 22:11 11
        
        Donald Trump will not win female voters against Hillary Clinton. not even close -- nm - sweet baboo Feb 23, 22:12 10
        
        Wait for it... -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:18 6
        
        Wait for what? Every woman who isn't in his family to die? - David's iPad Feb 23, 22:20 5
        
        Oh, I was joking. (Though that said, there's a large group of women who won't vote Hillary.) -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:21 4
        
        she will win 60-70% of the female vote, especially against Trump -- nm - sweet baboo Feb 23, 22:23 3
        
        In seriousness, I'll take the under there. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:24 2
        
        Obama got 56 against a sane moderate. A woman will get more than 60 against the Bleed Wherever guy. -- nm - David's iPad Feb 23, 22:26 1
        
        Obama was far more likable than Hillary. Knowing he landed 56% makes me double my U60% position. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 23, 22:30
        
        he seems to do well with the Eastern European former model demographic -- nm - crash davis Feb 23, 22:13
        
        she can't win demo women voters that are going to bernie -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 23, 22:13 1
        
        the split with Bernie is by age, not gender -- nm - sweet baboo Feb 23, 22:15
Rubio's gonna have enough sets of steak knives when it's all said and done that he can open a chain -- nm - sweet baboo Feb 23, 21:51
