BS....I lived in Fairfax for a few years (Arlington for 15) and that place has changed dramatically since then

what a douche

Gergen brings the conversation back to reality, positing that it indeed might be the Hispanic vote that nails the vampires to their coffins.....forget Virginia, Michigan, and New Hampshire

why not New York, too, fatso?

to fill time and to bloviate.

I swear, next they will say Trump has a chance at New York since he lives there. Insanity.

Lots of imaginary roads to 270, thinking that an overall big voter turnout might help him when it always means Ds are winning.

I'm staying away from their fictions. The TV is off! I'll trust DU to let me know what's really happening.

They mess with the map to create different paths to 270.
It's a poor attempt to create excitement and uncertainty.

and he was the guy playing with the touch screen that accidentally circled Virginia, I don't think he was saying Trump would win Michigan or New Hampshire.

He prefaced the whole conversation with saying Clinton feels great about Nevada and Florida, so give those to her, and we'll see how narrow Trump's path is. Give him all the other swing states, and he is still way behind. But even if he flips Michigan, he's still behind. He would actually have to flip Michigan and Pennsylvania.

It's still annoying because they do this "hypothetical map" game where they essentially give Trump all the swing states. But I think the larger point is it is looking great for us in Nevada and Florida, which basically ends the election.

the surrogates spinning their way into what I hope is a prolonged, intractable depression, ameliorable only by very intensive ECT, without any anaesthesia

Trump's win there, claiming that, if he wins the Keystone, it "opens MANY routes" to 270

nary a gainsay from Erin Burnett, talking to the giddy reporter

it's more democrat than republic, registration wise, so they're playing up its importance, even though it went to Romney

dream on, geebs
