California is going get ugly .....

With Bernie shit canning staff and putting all his eggs in his basket to win California, we are going to have to put up with so much shit.

His commercials, phone calls and possibly door knocks from his peeps. I would only imagine it would take come guts to come to MY door. Two Hillary yard signs, another on the front door, out two cars with Hillary stickers. I'll post video if it happens.

But I'm really tempted to start picking up calls and see if we get calls from the Sanders camp.

As for the front door, won't be pretty.

Remember that these are devoted followers, so it's not about trying to change their minds...it's about giving them less time to get to your more gullible neighbors. Ask a lot of questions that make you sound interested.

I approached a Sanders table at a local farmers market a couple weeks ago and took up almost 1/2 hour of the two volunteers there. It took all the acting skills I could muster, but during that time, they were not able to spread their propaganda to anyone else.

Spend a shit ton of money -- two, three, or four times more than HRC -- in an att not to capture as close to 100% of the California vote as possible. Yeah. That shit has worked real well in Massachusetts, Illinois, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, etc... Bunch of clueless fucking dolts!

He'll hold a few of those where lots of young people show up but he'll neglect small groups where he can listen to someone other than himself.

But if it helps your spirits - 538 has Hillary's chance to win CA at 88%. Pretty solid.

I think her poll numbers will rise as his campaign becomes obviously weaker. And I don't think there will be very many Bros willing to waste beautiful spring/early summer days walking door to door getting told to go away for a campaign that's circling the drain.

He will need lots of $$$ to return illegal donations and pay penalties.

he'd be doing that. By the time we get to vote in CA, everything might already be settled. This is why I envy people in other states who get to vote before us. Frankly, all states should get to vote at around the same time just like in the GE. People talk about that being unfair to smaller states like Iowa and New Hampshire, but the current system is a bit unfair to larger states and States that are out west.

and keep us posted as to their campaign in CA. I have a feeling they will be using the race there for the next month to make it seem like he is still relevant. Dreading all the BS and the end cannot come soon enough!
