Why was it vitally important to stop recounts then?

That SexyHillDog announcement vid sucked.

im not gonna read this thread cuz Masters but i hope ikes is furious today

I wonder if this tempban will finally teach ikes his lesson

Why did ikes get temp-banned?

so yes, the media did a full recount. and bush won in that he was president for 8 years. and the court didnt prevent gore from winning. nonetheless, bush didnt win the full media recount. gore did.

so it is more probable than not, according to the only study we have, that more votes were intended to be cast for Al Gore in florida in the 2000 election because the non disputed votes added to the most likely result of a "broad recount of all disputed ballots" would have yielded an advantage to Al Gore of around 100 votes

and using an election where the GOP lost by half a million and lost florida but for human errors...it should be viewed more as a loss.

"We think Republicans are crazy, so we're going to nominate the person who's the most Republican-like warmongering corporate shill among us, because gay marriage and medical marijuana are much more important issues than slaughtering foreigners and crushing the poor to make the rich richer."

ikes is banned? perfect

bunch of this thread got shipped off to PU, so presumably the temp ban was for the bush 2000 discussion? Unless the questionable post got deleted it is just this and sports in his posting history.

i liked the video. Everybody is getting ready for something!

read in kos that...Mother Jones reports that hill has selected Robby Mook, "a relatively unknown and openly gay man" who ran the 2013 campaign of Virginia Gov. McAuliffe, to be her campaign manager.

.

with the 2 gay couples of both genders in the video and this choice, seems like she isnt going to be shy on that issue. she also hit dog and cat lovers. covering all her bases, the asian girl student...i am surrounded by them btw here in la jolla...i know tough life. god they are so hot and all wear short shorts its just so sick. i wonder if they would go out with me...like im 46 and i dont really talk to them...anyways what was i...oh yeah hill is covering all the bases. the white working man, that young blue collar guy too, hill is strongish there, stronger than obama at least.

Starts a new kind of campaign?

What, is she hoping to not get votes? Cuz McCain already tried that type of campaign.

Didn't go well.

Seems like a good start to me.

That article is so terrible in basically every way

i dont see the problem with the video launch or the mccain parallels. she launched her campaign, it was short, upbeat, and a lot of folks can see themselves. and nobody can attack her for something new.

think rand paul really helped himself today. and he has that line about benghazi, how hill missed her 3am wakeup call...and the clinton foundation taking money from saudis who are bad on women rights among other things...and he came out pro amnesty. i think this helps jeb in that he wont be the only guy out there on that issue when cruz starts in on him. rand is good on justice too...u know what, f hill rand rocks! nah, he is way too conservative and weird for me.

Yeah, Vox is becoming a bit too HillaryNewsPropaganda site

Rookie mistake

I have no problem with Hillary propaganda. Just don't be loltastically abysmal at it. Like they literally started ruminating on how her video is part of a new feminine way of doing presidential politics.

Also they showed a black couple. So pro #black lives matter

Okay, what's another news site that's good on a tablet? This is ludicrous.

To understand what you are advocating, you feel that because somebody probably will win, actual cast ballots in a ballot box have no real meaning. That there is no real difference between a non binding poll, what someone thinks at some point in time, and a federal election.

That is an interesting system of government. Can the date of the poll be any date? Can that poll use any language to steer the respondent?

half as much as teh gays

I don't know what is worse. That it is true that literally doing nothing outside of making sure to include a bunch of different demographic groups is actually an effective ad. Or that this is false, and Hilary's campaign is being run by people so inept they think this is true.

From anattas' link

No, 175,010 ballots were not all of the ballots cast in Florida. There were quite a few more than that. So lol @ you if you consider 2-3% a "full recount"

the actual ballots in the ballot box, if they were all counted accurately, would more than likely have shown Gore would have won florida. the actual votes have all the meaning. what did i say that made u think otherwise? what polling or whatever are u talking about? polling?? people went to the polls, that means they voted.

its like if the red sox beat the yankees 4 out of last 6 games, but one of those two losses, the sox were actually ahead 5-4 after 9 innings, but the scorekeeper reversed the numbers, or he lost count, or some error, and the umps said okay thats game yankees win 5-4.

i am saying the actual score, not the mistaken (although "official") score, is what matters as an element in predicting who will win going forward. it doesnt matter a lot, its just one close game. but the "actual score" as in how many runs were scored by each team after 9 innings is what should be used. not the drunken mistaken score that was entered into the record book, unless u think these mistakes are something you can replicate and not just a freak error.

i am not saying well before that game we polled the fans who said the sox would win or whatever u think i was saying.
