Had to laugh at a woman they just had on CNN: it's time for Sanders to step away gracefully, like Clinton did when Obama won the nomination.

Clinton's graciousness in 2008 is something I'll always hold near to my heart.

but honestly outside of his tone was is really that much of an outlier in the modern republican party in terms of his politics and platform?

He just said he liked the individual mandate, you don't get much more of an outlier without burning a picture of Reagan onstage.

Well, he backtracked and said that he liked the mandate for insurance to cover sick people - which, thanks for reminding people that Obamacare made that happen!

what is the etymology of 'dextrosphere', a term i had not previously encountered

mookieproof, Wednesday, 24 February 2016 00:32 (eight years ago) link

From "dexter", Latin for "right"

petulant dick master (silby), Wednesday, 24 February 2016 00:33 (eight years ago) link

Presumably a back formation from "rightosphere"

How many of you don't like a Trump Presidency because you're afraid gangs of his supporters will beat you up? It's had to cross your mind a little bit.

larry appleton, Wednesday, 24 February 2016 00:35 (eight years ago) link

in fact it has not

never have i been a blue calm sea (collardio gelatinous), Wednesday, 24 February 2016 00:47 (eight years ago) link

in fact it has not

maybe it's my own imagination going crazy. i like to imagine that after trump is elected president america will instantly turn into a dystopia. roving bands of trump followers hassling people on the streets. burning trash fires. always have to look over your shoulder. i think it would be pretty cool.

larry appleton, Wednesday, 24 February 2016 00:48 (eight years ago) link

i think they made a movie about it actually, Back to the Future 2

I've kind of been assuming that it would become easier to decide whether to move back to Canada.

I don't often feel sympathy for Clinton, but playing a Colbert clip during a town hall while she sits there watching? That made me squirm.

the votes are in - Spiro T Agnew declared victor

you are no man. take the balls. (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 24 February 2016 03:39 (eight years ago) link

i'm going to guess the margin of victory is going to be large enough that a victor will still be declared tonight but God am I looking forward to the shitstorm that's gonna come out of this
