are you going with the person who is going to tell you where the life boats are or the one that says well it's not so bad now is it?

Numbers don't lie in SC [View all] UglyGreed Feb 2016 OP

SC stays red. Got it. oasis Feb 2016 #1

Dems not coming out to vote for Hillary. Got it. Live and Learn Feb 2016 #2

And really not coming out for Bernie Renew Deal Feb 2016 #4

Not in South Carolina. He didn't really get to campaign there enough. Live and Learn Feb 2016 #6

He had months! Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #12

Hillary has had years. South Carolina with its small conservative and relatively backward Live and Learn Feb 2016 #15

Backward population? Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #20

Howl away but it is pretty obvious that the majority of the state is pretty backward Live and Learn Feb 2016 #22

And you are from there? Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #24

Nobody said everyone there was backward. Live and Learn Feb 2016 #27

Hillary is a moderate Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #31

Not by her record. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #34

Her record you like to look at Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #38

I don't have to look, I have lived through it. Iraq War for starters. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #42

Yeah, I've lived there too. Cassiopeia Feb 2016 #44

No one said it was progressive Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #51

Okay, we'll go with stagnant then. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #64

I'd prefer "relatively conservative," myself. Lizzie Poppet Feb 2016 #53

Wow. That was offensive. SC has one of the highest densities of graduate degrees in the country. Buzz Clik Feb 2016 #25

Nope, about the overall or average population. Live and Learn Feb 2016 #28

Cool. You've defined yourself. Works for me. Buzz Clik Feb 2016 #33

Are you trying to appear comprehensively challanged on purpose? nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #65

"Backward Population?" MineralMan Feb 2016 #37

Back at you. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #66

If this is backward, I'll stay backward, thank you AgerolanAmerican Feb 2016 #62

I don't find them to be especially polite either. Polite condescension is not polite. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #67

"True" Democrats will do everything they can to avoid a SCOTUS oasis Feb 2016 #10

A Hillary SCOTUS appointment won't be any better. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #13

If you really believe that, okay. oasis Feb 2016 #29

I know that. She is bought and paid for. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #35

Turnout UglyGreed Feb 2016 #8

Bernie had less than half as many folks as Hillary turn out for him bigtree Feb 2016 #40

My point is UglyGreed Feb 2016 #46

your point was couched in a misleading premise bigtree Feb 2016 #50

You know that SC has a lot more republicans? And more candidates means more voters. Renew Deal Feb 2016 #3

So, we should vote for the guy who lost to Hillary? Buzz Clik Feb 2016 #5

Yes. It would be the moral vote anyway. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #7

Maybe I should cast a write-in for Jeebus. Buzz Clik Feb 2016 #9

Don't you have something UglyGreed Feb 2016 #19

I think it would be the immoral vote Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #14

Then you would be wrong. Hillary is the one that can't win in November. Live and Learn Feb 2016 #16

Really? Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #21

Here I fixed it for you; Likely Voters - enjoy: Live and Learn Feb 2016 #26

Cute trick Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #36

What trick? All I did was use likely voters. Your chart was wrong since it included people that Live and Learn Feb 2016 #41

Well, we are screwed then, eh? Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #45

Nobody believes she has a 99% chance at beating Trump. TDale313 Feb 2016 #43

Yep. Indeed Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #48

Again, I think you're in denial. TDale313 Feb 2016 #59

So what do you suggest? Stuckinthebush Feb 2016 #60

Well, not willing to write Bernie off just yet, but... TDale313 Feb 2016 #63

Yes; because the disaggregated vote tallies show that crucially important blocs voted FOR Bernie, i amborin Feb 2016 #11

No. Bernie is unelectable. Period. He can't win within the left, and he has no reach into the right. Buzz Clik Feb 2016 #23

Oh, he definitely wins within the left. Live and Learn Feb 2016 #30

Yes, silly me. I am judging his popularity by the votes he is getting. Buzz Clik Feb 2016 #47

That has nothing to do with the left. Bernie has gotten the left vote. Live and Learn Feb 2016 #49

Oh. So Bernie made a mistake by declaring himself a Democrat. At last, we agree. Buzz Clik Feb 2016 #52

Oh, so you just make shit up? I never said that. Lying disgusts me. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #54

Lying doesn't disgust you or you'd stop. Buzz Clik Feb 2016 #55

More lies? Do you ever stop? nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #57

Not much of a selling point, is it? Lucinda Feb 2016 #17

Bernie or doom and gloom Dem2 Feb 2016 #18

Not a narrative just the truth. Sorry it isn't prettier. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #32

Indeed. Dem2 Feb 2016 #39

+1000. nt sufrommich Feb 2016 #56

If you are on a sinking ship... Kalidurga Feb 2016 #61

I love surprises! HassleCat Feb 2016 #58
