Hillary LOL (f/k/a Hillary Clinton Indictment Watch f/k/a Hillary 2016?)

I think it is interesting that we're not seeing any news accounts from inside Hillary's election night war room. I seem to recall similar stories for Romney, McCain, Kerry, etc. I find it hard to believe there wasn't a single journalist there.

[Dugout DickStone]

makes you think

During election night coverage, it was reported on TV that the Clinton campaign kicked out all journalists when things started looking really bad for them.

That 70 year old woman is a real rough ridin' uggo, amirite.

I heard a podcast this morning that noted Hill won the pop vote(not news) but that she did so by only winning 500 counties country wide.  That is a shockingly low number of counties to win as a major candidate, imo, and also is a shockingly low number of counties that you can win and still win the pop vote. 

I guess the latter is my KS coming out.  Pop density like that is slightly mind blowing to me.  I mean, KS has like 100 counties.  Hill won 5x the counties that KS has and still won the pop vote.

I know what you're thinking, I thought the same thing after I hit post, wrong punctuation.

No, just watching a former Berner (turn hillster) defend Hillary because ppl are positioning questions about her health is adorable.

I not sure who I caucused for has anything to do with mocking a moron for laughing at the appearance of an old woman, but whatever you're certainly smarter than I am.

Which is one reason why the electoral college is a good thing.

I love it when one of the biggest bullies on this blog determines when it's right to be sentimental and when to call ppl dumb rough ridin' POS. Your resume really is dumbfounding. I hope you have a great day, MIR

Bully, lol. How sensitive millennial of you. Butch up. No matter how inferior I make you feel, you can take solace in knowing that I wasn't in NHS.

Just calling a spade a spade, champ.

would this surprise you if you divorced it from political context though?  like if someone asked you what % of the us population lives in the 100 largest cities, what would you guess?  and if they asked you how many counties encompass the 100 largest cities?

You essentially support a system that tells city dwellers they only get 3/5ths of a vote

The city dwellers do this to themselves.  Time to take some responsibility.

Yeah, votes for a national office should totally be given different weights depending on where you live within the nation.

It should be based on how much land you own. Only land owners should vote....maybe just white male landowners.

[sys]

it should be based on act/sat/gre scores.

That isn't really how it works, though. Rural and urban votes are equal in swing states. Neither matter in deep red or blue states.

yes

[Mrs. Gooch]

I can get behind this idea.

[420seriouscat69]

Yeah, that ACT score really turned out to be a deal breaker for me. I just have a silly little Masters underneath my belt, but can barely form complete sentences without drooling all over myself. So sad.

So then it's exactly how I said it works?
