Hillary can't draw a crowd so she changes to a smaller, indoor site(better/easier camera angles to hide small gathering)....Trump/Cruz/Rubio are drawing 10x the crowds than either ancient/tired/coughing dem.

Big crowds don't matter. Bernie gets huge crowds, but mysteriously can't get votes. The Dem establishment is just better at the fix than the R establishment.

This young lady forgot that whites show up at fundraisers, blacks show up at ballot box. That's the Dem rules...

Whatever dignity the republicans may have had... :::smh::: ..man these last two days have bee scary. As a patriot I believe strongly in the two-party system...hopefully the mouth-breathing knuckle-heads will not permanently kill the once-respected Grand Old Party. The batshits and their followers, I think one of your top senators called them..

Thats because most of his demographic isn't voting in primaries right now. Hell, most of America isn't voting in these things.

I predict the following:
1.) Hillary will beat Trump. The latter's carnival bark-ery might appeal to a majority of a divided Republican Party. But it will not appeal to the majority of general election voters.
2.) The day after the general election, the angry Trump voters will storm off even angrier in defeat, never to vote Republican again.
3.) After the departure of the Trump voters, the new conventional wisdom will be the Establishment was right all along. The key to winning future elections will be nominating Democrat-lite candidates.
4.) GOP will quickly become the California GOP on a national scale - the after dinner entertainment for the amusement of the dominant Democrat party.
5. African-American voters, who will have single handedly put Hillary in the White House, will meekly return to passively accepting their pathetic conditions in Democrat homelands like Southside Chicago, South Central LA, Anacostia in DC, the Bronx in NY, Baltimore, East St. Louis, etc. until the whole process is repeated in 2024.

Entertainer? I think I'm more of a prophet of doom. It is not intended to be entertaining.

KKK rally in Anaheim, Calif. erupts in bloodshed after three counter protesters are stabbed

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/nationa ... -1.2546036

An angry mob chased after them screaming “Get out of here!” and “You’re not welcome!”

Protesters were spotted stomping on one Klansman wearing a “Grand Dragon” shirt.

“It was crazy,” Dion Garcia, 37, told Reuters. “A lot of us were trying to break it up. This was not necessary, they should’ve just let the Klan protest. This is America, we have free speech.”

Levin, a former NYPD cop, said he helped the kicked KKK member escape the mob.

Afterward, Levin said, he asked the man a pointed question — “How do you feel that a Jewish guy just saved your life?”

“Thank you,” the man replied, Levin told the Los Angeles Times.

In all, six Klansmen were arrested in connection with the three stabbings and seven counter-protesters were suspected of attacking KKK members.
During a press conference later, O'Mara was asked if he had any advice for Zimmerman, and he answered, "Pay me."

I had no idea there's a Klan in California.

Cool story about the Levin guy.

When I read the headline of that article, "There Goes the Firewall: Hillary Clinton’s Response to BLM May Have Cost Her The Election," my first thought was "what could Hilary have said to the Bureau of Land Management that could possibly cost her the election?"

Heh. I don't think Hillary has anything to worry about Black Lives Matter. She'd blow Bernie's doors off tomorrow with the African American vote if she turned fire hoses on the BLM leadership today.

Say what you want, but blacks vote our collective self interest. We don't get hung up on single issues or wedge issues.

Choice? There are a lot of blacks who are pro-life, but there is no pro-life GOP politician who would support our key issues of equal access to education, jobs, housing, health care, and a safety net, etc.

Taxes? There are many black high earners who think our tax system stinks, but there is no tax-cutting GOP politician who would support our key issues of equal access to education, jobs, housing, health care, and a safety net, etc.

Guns? Blacks LOVE guns - they're what we shoot each other with! But there is no pro-2nd Amendment GOP politician who would support our key issues of equal access to education, jobs, housing, health care, and a safety net, etc.

After voting for Democrats by %90+ margins for at least 40 years, how much has that extraordinary loyalty gotten black voters? After all this time, nowhere are equal access to education, jobs, housing, health care, and a safety net more glaringly absent than cities which are overwhelmingly Democrat - Compton, the Bronx, Southside Chicago, East St. Louis, Detroit, Baltimore, etc. It does not appear that you're getting your vote's worth.

P.S. Tomorrow, the African American vote will go almost entirely to Hillary. Does that mean that black voters think only she will give them equal access to education, jobs, housing, health care, and a safety net, and Bernie will not?
