Every pronouncement of "he won" is empty and meaningless. It's opinion, and we all obviously have different opinions on the top guys. The ONLY thing to actually WIN happens in about 2 weeks, in Iowa, and thereafter. Until then, these pronouncements of "he won", with absolute certainty, are just goofy, as are the poop-flinging arguments that come afterwards.

My kid did good. Yours did too. Nice pageant. Let's move on.

Freerepublic wasn't always this bad, was it? Maybe my memories are fuzzy and happy, but I don't recall this volume of goofiness around election time before.

Yeah, the furniture gets thrown about every 4 years. The nastiness level is about the same, I think there are just a lot more paid posters/disruptors than in the past.

The way this election is going is very bad from the perspective of the political establishment. Their preferred candidate in the rat faction is having some issues to put it mildly. And their preferred candidates in the gop faction are getting knocked down like dominoes. Boom. Boom. Boom.

So the political establishment may well be looking at a choice between Bernie and Trump in the general. They lose either way. They’re pulling the stops and part of that is sending in the paid posters/disruptors.

If things go as I believe they will, it’ll quiet down in about 2 months. When (if) Trump runs the table and her thighness is in serious trouble with Bernie, the focus will change.
