Wasn't Pence an enthusiastic endorser of Cruz?

I still can't imagine what the debates will actually look like. On the Keepin' It 1600 podcast they brought up the question of just who the heck the Clinton campaign can possibly use as a Trump surrogate for practice debates, and what that person's strategy for debate prep will be. They might have to shoot someone up with amphetamines.

McAuliffe? Schumer?

I hope Kremlin plant becomes a real story

The press should at least look into it, even if it is in conspiracy territory. The private funding, Manafort and quite a few specific foreign policy statements that seem too favorable to Russia at the expense of our allies seem worthy of looking into.

To be fair, Palin was way more entertaining than Trump has been lately.

Well, until the presser this morning at least

I hope it keeps up... surely he realizes that no one can take away the nomination from him now

PA more likely than VA for Trump, and clinton hasn't spent a dollar there aside from $100k in pittsburgh area (prob for NE ohio)

How exactly are the Republicans going to win FL this year. All the Hispanics (which turned out huge for Hillary in the primaries) stay home?

Obama barely won FL in 2012 and 538 has it as a complete toss-up. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/florida/

just as a reminder he never really significantly underperformed his polling anywhere

on the other hand, cruz wildly overperformed in several states where he had a campaign apparatus

except SC. Cruz went nuts there with money and ground game.

To me, The crazy thing about these polls isn't necessarily Trump's numbers, which have mostly stayed in his 41-45 range, but rather that Clinton has seemed to nosedive, to the high 30s in some cases. There's a real confidence and enthusiasm gap with the Democratic nominee, which, if the convention goes well, should turn around, hopefully.

Hopefully Democrats will stop sulking, but I think the dream of winning by 10+ is not looking great.

These polls the general ballot for dems still has a big advantage over the GOP, unless that has changed too

Real question:

Why didn't the dems offer Bernie the VP spot, it seems like that would be an easy "unite the party, let Bernie be the conscience in the white house while Hillary is the closer to center negotiator" blah blah kind of scenario.

Full Disclosure: I was/am a Bernie supporter, voted for him here in Ohio, but I do think he's too far left to win the GE on his own, especially in the current climate.

She's already got 90% of his voters

bernie lost, in every possible way, so why poo poo things up publicly like this?

he's gotten progressive positions on the platform and has raised popularity and support for the issues all over the nation

what does this accomplish?

Sanders and his campaign lost complete control of his delegates, the bernie CA delegates are chanting lock her up

should be entertaining though!
