MSNBC looked at that and looked at the trends. Trump is bringing new voters into the primary who haven't voted before. But they have voted in the general. There not new voters. I was like that I didn't vote in the primaries but always voted in the general.

polls say all kinds of shit if you havent noticed. retrowire May 2016 #15

You say all kinds of shit, if you have not noticed, lol. Hence, no facts, your view. seabeyond May 2016 #17

still avoiding the point. nt retrowire May 2016 #19

I have addressed the point that was significant to me. Gotta tell ya, didn't read all of your seabeyond May 2016 #22

Agree with you about polls. And yet, Sanders is asking to overthrow the will of the voters, based on lunamagica May 2016 #56

Huh..... seekthetruth May 2016 #51

We're not going anywhere either. You can get on board or not, the nomination is Hillary's. YouDig May 2016 #3

i just ask people to accept that Hillary's possible win retrowire May 2016 #5

Tell yourself whatever you want. YouDig May 2016 #11

so do you think Hillary winning will remove all the pressure on the party? nt retrowire May 2016 #20

The only relevant battle is between the Dems and GOP. Hillary and Bernie already are running on YouDig May 2016 #21

i see that in completely the opposite way retrowire May 2016 #34

I've talked to supporters of each camp, and by far Hillary supporters are more informed. YouDig May 2016 #36

tsk tsk tsk... nt retrowire May 2016 #37

More informed? Fawke Em May 2016 #68

Great! As a HRC supporter I hope you and the Bernie movement will continue to be active Fla Dem May 2016 #38

And yet the nomination is not the actual prize. Ask Mitt. Ask Al Gore. They won nominations but Bluenorthwest May 2016 #33

We can win without the drunken chair-thrower contingent of the Bernie crowd. YouDig May 2016 #35

The nation is always discontent Trenzalore May 2016 #24

That data doesn't tell the whole story. Move on to defeat Trump & make positive change. themaguffin May 2016 #25

I would like to make a suggestion... NCTraveler May 2016 #14

Your comment was constructive until the "establishment" dig. retrowire May 2016 #16

There was no "dig". NCTraveler May 2016 #32

It's a total dig. The left which you smear fought for LGBT rights while the establishment you cheer Bluenorthwest May 2016 #39

I have absolutely no clue what you are talking about. NCTraveler May 2016 #40

You having no clue will not get an argument from me. Bluenorthwest May 2016 #44

I appreciate your admittance that you cannot back up... NCTraveler May 2016 #45
