Well im one voting for trump. Member since 2003.
Sorry, where are you getting the 8 state rule?
http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P16/R-Alloc.phtml
Those are the rules governing delegate allocation at the convention as announced and amended by the RNC. (That’s a great website, by the way, I would recommend bookmarking it.)
Again, my comments about ground game were specific: is Trump organizing precinct captains and securing delegates favorable to him should they become “free agents” at the convention? Of the three states (WA, KY, NH) in which I have intimate knowledge of precinct level operations, Trump has minimal precinct level organization.
Unlikely? How could Trump pick someone he claims is ineligible?
Texas is a good one to start the list with. And a kinda big one, too.
I agree with that judgement. I am very concerned when any candidate does want it very badly.
Grudge or not, how does Trump walk back the birther talk? How does he spin picking an ineligible, according to him, running mate?
If you listened to Trump’s comments, he never says that he is ineligible. He said that doubt would loom over him about his eligibility, which is something you can’t have going into the general election.
How can Trump choose Cruz as his VP after questioning his eligibility for president?
He wants a declaratory judgement from the court to clear up the question.
The democrats would tirelessly attack Cruz in the general election if this is not cleared up once and for all.
Trump/Cruz would be a rich and smart team. It would be a lot of fun to see :-)
The Brains/Bucks tag team.
Greetings_Puny_Humans is the junkyard dog here, he needs to be addressed by the pack.
It uses betting data only from Betfair.com, which uses a candidate “share” system that is more efficient and accurate at calculating the odds than PredictIt.org.
But, Betfair does have flaws, too.
It is located in the UK, and it cannot legally accept wagers from USA based bettors.
I will guess that restriction excludes thousands of highly informed and politically sophisticated American bettors, which means Betfair’s odds may be more accurate, but their bettors may be less knowledgeable.
Stossel’s website does not compute odds for individual state primaries.
It only computes odds - every five minutes - for the final party nominees and the general election winner.
Republican Nominee: Trump 40% - Rubio 30% - Cruz 11%
Democrat Nominee: Clinton 80% - Sanders 17%
General Election Winner: Clinton 51% - Trump 17% - Rubio 13% - Sanders 9%
Let me give the proper response to this as the FR “Conservatives” would like:
TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP[ TRUMP
Don’t ask me to think
TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP YEAH TRUMP
This seems rather ass-backwards!
Back in those early years there was no provable was to ascertain the actual father of a child.
No one EVER remarked to a mother "But are you certain the baby is yours!?" lol :-)
That’s a great use of my statement of stop attacking one another, by doing the exact opposite. Immediately after quoting it./s
It used to be winning 5 states outright, but after the 2012 debacle, those in charge wanted to make sure and certain, that something like what's happening this year couldn't happen. So they had they had a meeting and changed it to winning 8 states outright.
I have heard it repeatedly on radio and T.V. shows and read about the change in many news articles. It's one of those things that only INSIDERS know and talk about amongst themselves, but someone found out about it and spread the word. I wish that I could be more specific, but I can't. And no, I didn't know about this until I heard/read about it.
I'm NOT making this up....I wish that I were; I think that the whole thing is kinda crazy, what with the delegate count and all.
Trump saw it as a threat to his manhood, but he proved that he wasn't even man enough to stand by his statement. Less than 24 hours later he's saying he really meant "nose"... What a wuss!
I caucused in Iowa in 1992 and 1996.
Anger? Adrenaline? Ideologically extreme?
Never saw it. Never heard it.
The Parties caucus in separate rooms, so I can’t comment on the Democrat Caucus.
I actually can’t recall who won the Democrat Caucus in 1992 - I think Clinton lost.
