    That's not even sure. Sometimes you get lucky and meet that woman who goes out knowing she is going to get laid. Some nights it's your night.

    Gotta love how our democracy is under seige the likes we have never seen.

    The DNC sabbotaged Sanders' campaign as much as possible and Hillary is buying her election (see SuperDelegate debacle and Wall Street Speaking engagements). The defacto leader of the Republican party is telling people that we cannot nominate Donald Trump and begging for people to vote for anyone else, preferably whoever has the best chance in each particular state).

    Who exactly is stopping me from voting for whoever I want? Democracy isn't under siege. Sounds like more istltttlitl hyperbole.

    Where in the consitution does it say anything about republicans and democrats or a 2 party system? Oh yeah, it doesn't. The GOP and the Democratic Party have only 1 interest. What's best for the party. Geraldine Ferraro famously said Super Delegates were created to keep outsiders from hijacking the party. At the end of the day it's about what's in the best interest of the party. What you have to weigh is this if you are republicans. Do you piss off all these constituents and just choose someone over Trump, even though he carries the majority in most states? Will you lose people? Probably but I bet not many, they probably look at it like this. Do we have a chance to win? Unlikely. So let's let Trump ride it out, tell our crazy base that loves Trump, see we gave you what you wanted, it failed, go back to the establishment so we can unite and win next time. Or screw over all these people who want Trump and still lose the general election and now you have a really pissed off base.

    The smart thing for the GOP is to let this dude burn out as quickly as possible and him get his ass kicked in the general election so they can unite everyone for 2020.

    Your prediction of trump hitting 60 percent hasn't been working out.
