You give me a link to a conservative site? Really?

RealClearPolitics (RCP) is a Chicago-based political news and polling data aggregator formed in 2000[2] by former options trader John McIntyre and former advertising agency account executive Tom Bevan.[3][4][5] The site's founders say their goal is to give readers "ideological diversity".[6] This claim been disputed by some liberal news outlets, alleging observations of a conservative bias in the content it displays.[7]

RCP has expanded to include a number of sister sites. Politico executive editor Jim VandeHei has called the site "an essential stop for anyone interested in politics".[8]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RealClearPolitics

Real Clear Politics was the same site that added in Hillary's superdelegates in the pledged delegate field. Yeah, I really trust that site.
