    For those that don't believe Trump can win this thing, I'll leave you with this.

    The Real Clear Politics poll of polls average shows Trump beating Kasich by 2.5 % in Ohio. Kasich is a sitting governor with an absurdly high 80 percent approval rating.

    fivethirtyeight.com has Kasich at 69% chance of winning ohio.

    I do believe Kasich will eek out a win.

    But my point is Trump pushing him in this state is significant. You don't see Cruz pushing him, he's not even a factor as has been the case in most states.

    It will be interesting to see what the superdelegates do in both parties.

    When different polls have such widely disparate results it makes you wonder if they all just make all that stuff up.
    I saw one poll a couple of weeks ago that said "results are base on telephone polling to 1069 landline subscibers." Who the hell under 70 still has a landline?

    yeah, fivethirtyeight generally prides itself on going in depth with numbers but who knows. It is interesting that Kasich is behind in the polls but expected to win by fivethirtyeight.

    trump will win florida. the only question is will rubio at least finish 2nd. I think it will be close bt him and cruz. kasich will finish last.

    then Kasich is going to bitch slap everyone in ohio.

    then trump wins every state after that from here on out.

    just ran across this:

    odds to win it all Hillary 66% trump 20% Cruz 9% Sanders 2% Rubio 1% (not good for my bet kasich is not listed, no brokered means no shot)

    If you have him at 66-1, you can lay your action off to me.

    Republicans do not have superdelegates. It's only the DNC that rigs elections for their candidates. Really sad and pathetic.

    If you're a Democrat, I think you should renounce your party affiliation based on this one fact alone. They take a dump on democracy.

    717 superdelegates who can vote for who they damn well please. Approximately 16 percent of the total delegate count.

    About 90-95 percent are pledging to Hillary. The liberal media often refers to the current delegate count with these superdelegates factored in so as to spurn the uprising of the Sanders movement. Who knows how many Sanders voters simply don't vote because they know the system is rigged.

    Fuck that wretched party.
