value than it is

If you want fake new, it is what they did after Comey sent the letter to the republicans in Congress. The media said the email investigation was being reopened

That was a LIE, which both the cable outlets and newspapers propagated

The cable outlets went one step further by parading every right wing politician across there screen propagating that lie

It was only late Friday when Comey came out and said there wa nothing new, and no reason to reopen the email investigation

Too late though, the damage had already been done, and no one was paying attention to what Comey was saying late Friday before the election

N.H. will probably be Sanders, followed by Biden, with Mayor Pete third. If Biden doesn’t make second there that will spell problems for him.

However, if Biden gets second in N.H. what will that mean? Not a damn thing, except the contest for fourth place between Warren and Klobuchar will be significant

As of right now it looks like Nevada will probably be Biden, but that could change depending what happens in N.H. Also Nevada is also a caucus, which suffers the same issues as Iowa

I think Super Tuesday will tell the story of which candidates will be left standing

Sanders and Warren will unite behind one of them, and Mayor Pete, Biden, and Klobuchar will unite behind one of them, and we will be left with two leading candidates

The question is will any candidate have sufficient delegates by the convention?

If not, I think we are in trouble











If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
