Yay...a 4th straight record turnout for the Republicans*
I sure hope this is due to the large number of candidates.

4. The thing is, even if it is just from the large number of candidates, that doesn't matter
If you can get someone to come out to the primary, they're much much more likely to vote in the general. This is exactly why having a narrow bench is a bad thing: the contacts that are being made, right now, by the GOP in the primary are going to still be contacts in November.

7. If someone asked me to train people to vote against their best interests, I'd be at a loss.
Maybe it's just easier to sell fear than it is hope.

Good heavens! It's not even March, yet, and they're already down in the dumps. They should self-identify to their preferred pharmacies, liquor stores, and dealers so those businesses can stock up in preparation for November!

It's funny, I was just thinking about asking Gregorian (22,511 posts) to conduct training classes on topics such as "how to behave in a multicultural environment" at my place of employment. My concern is that he/she/it will not have available time to do the job during this busy season. So we suffer.

You idiots have been advocating voting for Democrats for as long as I've known of the existence of DU. You can't get more against ones best interests than that.

DUmmies are dancing around like fools trying desperately to explain this "anomaly". Well, tough. Republicans want to win in '16, and Hillary/Crazy Uncle Bernie just aren't firing up any voters. Simple as that.

DUmmies need to stock up on :

18. I was told Hillary Clinton 'owns you gays' and that she was an absolute lock, Sanders out by NH...
Still waiting to see that. Also still waiting for an apology for her years and years and years of denigrating LGBT for her own advancement while members of her cohort giggle and point fingers and claimed to be super holy religious. Her entire cohort should be doing that, but they don't and lord knows she won't.
The fact that folks like you are so eager to preserve the nasty anti gay politicians says all I need to know about this Party and what minority persons need to do with this Party.
This is a little incoherent, but still notable:

That's interesting when you realize that the Ohio primary is on March 15

Not unusual, we started early voting in TX last week. Only trouble here in San Antonio is there are only two polling places open and they are both in the barrio.

Barrio is Spanish for ghetto, right?

Detroit, flint, and a few other cities in MI are a direct result of people voting for their self interests as directed by democrat idiots, over decades.

Not to mention your bench consists solely of an unindicted felon that even you assholes hate, if you would admit it to yourselves, and a raving septuagenarian hippie who, just can't seem to get anyone to take his expired coupons.
:cheersmate: to whomever came up with that! I can't remember who did, but I still laugh. :thumbs:
