    Less republicans isn't a bad thing, but he seemed brighter than the other two at least. It's a bit scary that the whole Republican party will pretty much vote Trump.

    Sane people aren't going to vote Republican, and "sane" Republicans won't get votes at all, I suppose it's not a huge surprise. What we need is someone to step up and say civil rights should -always- be throughout all states, how else can you boast about the country being so free?

    I was expecting him to quit way before Cruz instead of slightly afterwards.

    My money is on her losing.

    She's split the democratic base in the worst way possible and is banking on this idea that we'll be so terrified of Trump we'll bow down to her. A large portion of Sanders supporters have decided they refuse to engage in a system that produces options this bad.

    On top of that she has an indictment looming over her head, and now some of her aides have been called in to testify so we'll find out where that's going fairly soon I imagine.

    Then there is the fact that if Trump pivots towards the center and aggressively goes after Clinton the same way Bernie does his favorability will raise and he'll pick up independents and even some democrats. Hilary on the other hand has been constantly losing more and more favorability with every passing day.

    If you ask me I'd say Trump wins the white house in a Clinton vs. Trump election.

    So basically we're going to have President Donald Trump. Because if it's him versus Hillary he's going to annihilate her, and unfortunately it doesn't look like Bernie's winning the Democratic nomination.

    Yep. That's it. I'm out. I'm moving out of the country. Anyone want to join me? We can split the airfare. You'd have to probably learn German, though, because that's where I'm going. I'm done with America.

    I'd put money on Trump too. Hillary already can't answer many of the questions Bernie challenges her to answer, and I feel uncomfortable watching her try to give the best answer to something which she has no excuse for -- "well, no, I won't release the transcripts, since that's never been a requirement to be president... Let's talk about tax returns" "so if trump releases all his tax returns you will release your speech transcripts" "well let's compare apples to apples and go with the status quo of only releasing taxes." -- she gave up her credibility as a public servant for money, just admit it.

    And just wait until Trump starts digging even deeper. If people think Bernie is being too tough on her, she needs the practice, because Bernie is only talking about the tip of the iceberg. She's been involved in so many scandals I think she will be completey unelectable. We'll see if trump's scandals are as bad as hers. But even if both have accounts in Panama, for example, it's still worse fo hillary being a politician -- she is corruption -- trump is just playing the corrupt system she instituted, since everyone does it.

    I'm kinda rambling and too lazy to fix anything haha but anyway kassich dropping out = trump nominee = trump president.

    One reason I hate when people say you're being too hard on your opponents. You're never too hard on your opponents. When someone can't handle criticism, can't defend their beliefs, and can't answer a question, then it shows how unqualified they are. Bernie released his tax returns (surprise surprise - nothing out of the ordinary). Bernie answers questions he's asked.


    When she's put against Trump, he will eat her alive. She got this far by avoiding questions. Trump will at least have an answer (as dumb as the answers may be).

    Kasich or Sanders are the only two people who could have gotten my vote. I am voting third party. I refuse to vote for either of these pinheads.
