28. No Republican will win the White House in 2016

Fri Apr 10, 2015, 03:16 PM

Apr 2015

Look at the numbers for Hispanics. The GOP has completely alienated them and they are breaking hard for Dems. Hispanics overwhelmingly approve of Obama's immigration actions. This trend will not change and it will likely get worse as the GOP primary debates begin and each GOP candidate tries to prove who is the bigger bigot.

Also, look at the amount of swing states they have to win. The Republican nominee will have to win every swing state.

The GOP nominee has no chance.

It's a dirty little secret the media is hiding because they want a competitive race.

The reality is very much different.
