don't get me wrong, i cling to faith in humanity as well cuz there's something truly cool and good within us all but idk if we'll be able to reach our potential as a species



Potential for what, exactly?

IMO "human potential" is meaningless if we lack purpose. I don't mean as individuals or nations or whatever, but as a species. IMO, as sentient creatures it's our ethical duty to create the best living conditions possible for as many lifeforms as we can. We're all doomed to the experience of existence, so we may as well make existing as enjoyable as possible for everything we can. Any other "potential" of our species is still pointless without the overarching purpose of acting as stewards of life.

are you kidding me

also hillary has literally no control over the republican electorate how is she supposed to help who they vote for

"hillary clinton is the worst candidate" only works if you go with the assumption that she actually should have been run out of town on a rail after thirty years of witch hunts and that it is cool and good to smear a person with reckless abandon.

tbh after being smeared for decades, pretty much for being a woman with ambition, and having the entirety of her campaign inner workings laid bare by hackers, to still be winning even over Americas Worst Human, you'd have to be a pretty good candidate.

Unaffiliateds in Colorado break Dem and republicans are down in EV which never happens. That state is gone.

The GOP in PA is desperately turning out Clinton/Toomey voters to try and save Toomey's seat.

Trump hasn't led a live interview NH poll all year, and both Van Ostern and Hassan are at least tied and running several points behind HRC.

NC is not the "tipping point state" jfc.

If anything this election proves the opposite. Candidates don't matter at all. Even party platforms only matter in the most nebulous way. If only we had a legislature willing to govern, we'd have a functioning democracy.

Yep, this election proves that the polarization of the parties overrides every other consideration. Did ppl forget that this is the thesis of "nothing matters"?

idk guys florida might be gone, dems were up by 60k early voting in 2012

I'm leaning towards OH/FL goes for Trump but abuela winning by holding taking NC and holding on to NV

You need to chill. 2012 early voting was scheduled differently. This is extremely similar to the 2008 pace so far.

Candidates do matter, Tim Kaine would prob be auto +7.5 vs Trump, all that needed to happen was for the candidate not to have massive scandals all over the place

that's nice. everyone's values are relative, there is no objective truth so i don't feel like getting dragged into an argument about relative value, the omnipresent trap that leftists get stuck in

Yeah anyone thinking this would've been different with any other candidate, just think: terrorists killed 4 people, including one of our friends, in Benghazi.

Instead of attacking the terrorists, wanting their blood, etc, republicans in congress instantly turned on Hillary. They are obsessed with attacking democrats no matter who they are.

There's no redemption.

Go to USPol if you want to argue about counterfactuals. If Kaine could have won the primary he should have won. He didn't. If Jesus returned yesterday and voted Democrat, maybe that would change the election too. But who gives a poo poo?
