Here's How Donald Trump Could Become President

Oh dear, what would we do if she died? How foolish were we to start voting early.

We aren't voting for a queen. We vote for electors. They vote their conscience, and we have faith in them.

Good luck with that, if it were to happen. But I'm not even talking about her dying, I'm talking about the near impossibility of her being replaced, no matter her condition.
 
It’s almost time to begin referencing 2016 voting in the present as well as future tense. As Bloomberg’s Terrence Dopp noted yesterday, North Carolina begins mailing out absentee ballots this Friday. A week later, in-person early voting will start up in Minnesota. Before voting concludes on November 8, about a third of voters – perhaps even more – will have already cast ballots. And early voting is especially prevalent in some of the battleground states:

Early voters will make up more than half of the electorate in the crucial states of North Carolina, Colorado, Florida, Nevada, Arizona, and Georgia, according to projections from the Associated Press.
When early voting really gets rolling next month, candidates will be banking votes and turning their attentions – via ads and GOTV efforts – to those that are left. With each day the events of the “campaign” will become irrelevant for a steadily rising percentage of the electorate. And that means the traditional perception of an election cycle heading to a climactic finish on November 8 could be misleading, despite all the hoopla that will naturally accompany the final efforts of the candidates, and all the polling and punditry that will reach a final frenzy then.

Bad time to get sick. But early voting is not why she won't leave the race and if she refuses to leave, the party can't do a damned thing about it without burning itself down in internecine civil war, which is really the purview of the Republicans; Democrats are more "disciplined." All ready, they are being reassured that Hillary is perfectly healthy by all of the usual suspects. To them it is just the minor problem of being too secretive, but because of the vast, right-wing conspiracy, a little paranoia is justified...

FroDOH!'s not smart enough to follow a train of thought which is why he never went to college.

He's the Democrat variant of a deplorable basket case.
 
She's not going anywhere because early voting has made it virtually impossible, from a practical standpoint, for Hillary to be replaced as the D presidential nominee, no matter what her health or abilities might be. An apparently unforeseen, or underappreciated, consequence of that innovation in the voting process.

It's almost like we need something like an Electoral College for such situations...


Someone should look into that.

Yes, a bad time to get sick. Right now thousands of votes have already been cast in North Carolina, and soon other states will join the fray.

If Hillary were to be replaced at the top of the ticket, which she won't be, her successor would be really pissed if any elector voted for her in the EC, I would think.

I reiterate, it's not early voting that prevents her from being replaced.

Those people speculating on that are now getting urgent phone calls and emails urging them to get their mind right for the good of the party and down-ballot voting; the first woman candidate for President brings out more voters than a white guy to be named in an emergency.

I think if it were possible to replace her right now, with no negative consequences, she'd be gone. Unfortunately for the D party, it's not possible.

There is no such thing with the Clintons as no negative consequences, if the party tries to bring her down, she would be more than happy to bring the party down.

She is owed, she is entitled and this office his her right as the woman who destroyed the women her husband predated upon, the woman who meekly stepped aside for the history that was Obama and now she is going to be the first woman President and if you scorn her..., stand the fuck by, because they know where all the skeletons are and they are, to put it politely, absolutely ruthless and not at all burdened by the albatross of ethical conduct.

Solves all angles
 
There are whispers about replacing Hillary at the top of the D ticket, but one problem with that is early voting is already underway, so replacing Hillary with someone else would virtually guarantee a Trump victory, unless she's replaced very quickly, no matter who the replacement might be.


A bunch of dumbbells on the GB = "whispers."

You all need to leave the bubble once in a while.
 
"It’s taking her off of the campaign trail,” said Roberts [Cokie, NPR] Monday morning, indicating that the pneumonia has forced Clinton to cancel her upcoming trip to California. But as for members of the Democratic party, “It has them very nervously beginning to whisper about her stepping aside and finding another candidate.”

“Now is the time for all good political leaders to come to the aid of their party,” said Don Fowler, who helmed the DNC from 1995 to 1997, during Bill Clinton’s presidency, and has backed Hillary Clinton since her 2008 presidential bid. “I think the plan should be developed by 6 o’clock this afternoon.”

“It’s something you would be a fool not to prepare for,” he said in an interview on Monday. He added a note of caution, should Clinton attempt an expeditious return to the campaign trail.

“She better get well before she gets back out there because if she gets back out there too soon, it might happen again,” he said.

Is there a cure for Parkinson's?

It's gonna happen again...

Listen to Bill.

Polls, on the average, as tracked by RealClearPolitics and the Huffington Post, along with prediction markets like PredicIt and the Iowa Electronic Market, as well as several models featured at the recent meeting of the American Political Science Association all agree that Hillary Clinton is the heavy favorite to win.

One model, however, begs to differ. It is one that, with slight variations, has accurately predicted the winner of the popular vote in each of the last five presidential elections, ever since it was introduced in 1996.

Dubbed the “Primary Model,” it puts much stock in using primary results to forecast the vote in the general election. It also takes advantage of a historical tendency of the electoral pendulum to swing back and forth between the two parties. Both factors favor Trump over Clinton in 2016.

Trump proved to be the stronger candidate in primaries, according to the metric used by the model, and the electoral pendulum is poised to swing back to the Republican side after two Democratic terms in the White House under Barack Obama. The Primary Model predicts that Trump will defeat Clinton by 52.5 percent to 47.5 percent of the two-party vote. It is 87-percent certain that he will be the next President.

How does the model produce this forecast?

In election-related news, Kerry funneled millions of dollars to his daughter as Secretary of State...

It's about time to revive an old-time Literotica phrase,

Only reads the good morning Democrat news...

Actually, based on several of his posts that addressed completely different subjects than those under discussion I'm inclined to believe he doesn't read anything at all.
