Should be easier now that mostly winner-take-all primary states are left.


Not necessarily. With Rubio's withdrawal, the "not Trump" camp just became more concentrated. Also, most of those states are winner-take-all on a congressional district level. That would mean for example that each of California's 55 or so districts are going to award their 3 delegates on the winner in that district, not the statewide winner.

'Not trump' went entirely to Kasich, who is in there who knows what reason. Maybe pride, certainly isn't honor, or math.

Trump speaks at a 4th grade reading level. We all knew he was pandering to those with 3-syllable vocabs but its nice to get a number on it.

Funny enough that article checks out to be written at a 5th grade reading level.

If you're going to have a negative effect on someones support base you need to make sure they can read the article.

Haha that was actually a pretty clever response. I've got no retort.

Here is just a sample of the 30,322 emails. After the Benghazi attack Hillary's State Department emails show her administration was in contact with Google regarding a blocked YouTube video after President Obama admitted that the Benghazi attack was a preplanned act of terror.

Nora Toiv, a special assistant to the counselor of the State Department, sent an email to State Department officials on Sept. 27, 2012 with the subject line “RE: Google and YouTube” and referenced phone conversations with a someone named Sue that assured Toiv blocks would remain in place for the video(s) in question through Oct. 1, 2012.

“Sue just called back and the block will stay through Monday. They will not/not be unblocking it before then.”

It's also interesting to note the email contains the contact information for Google CEO Larry Page and YouTube CEO Salar Kamangar including their mobile and office phone numbers.


Not really all that surprising, just eerie to think about. If she has that much pull as SoS one can only imagine the kind of shit she will pull while PotUS.

The guy who's accepting money from Soros, yeah.

Cruz isn't an insider either, Kasich's only purpose now is to soak up delegates and try to block majority.
