Wow the odds have changed drastically in favor of HRC: http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/#now

83.8% chance for Hillary to win!

if election day was today, which isn't surprising considering that it's more or less right after her convention and the whole Khan thing still ongoing.
But the normal forecast looks a bit better as well: http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/
with 64.8%

Honestly, a potato on either side would win against Hillary or respectively Trump... Whoever ends up more in the media loses (outside hardcore right/hardcore left) because there's literally nothing nice you can say about either candidate. Being in the media means you're getting shit on for both candidates

There are plenty of "nice" things to say about Clinton, folks just like to pretend otherwise because baseless equivocations between the two are integral to a functioning media circus. Taxes, the social safety net, and the Supreme Court are good places to start.

okay let me rephrase, you won't hear about any of that because the more extreme things get viewers. Taxes are boring, the question wether or not hillary will end up in prison probably a bit less so to the average audience. Or seeing Trump mock the parents of a soldier who died for his country. That's beating social safety net!

Prison is boring, according to some Trump advisor she should totally be shot.

http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_578fa150e4b07c722ebd2fd1

Now I propse a new constructive debate for the dumbest campaign in political history : should she be waterboarded before being shot?

I don't think cultists are stupid per say, just very vulnerable people. The same can't be said for the elites entering these societies.

Woooooshhhh

that is the sound of his post going right over your head.

No the guy who send the email is not a cultist, he is a normal person making a job. The sad/funny & definitely stupid people are those who can not see a joke among colleagues if it bit them in the face.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

I love the general ignorance of the wikileaks followers who believe that the people who work for the DNC and Clinton are uneducated and any referenced to an obscure god is signs of joining a cult. Because it just being a joke would be too simple.

No the sad and stupid people are the ones that thought Trump was seriously telling Russia to hack Clinton.

edit: Anyway I was just explaining that Clinton is indeed not Satan, but she is linked to Satanic groups like the Bohemian Grove, where they also worship a cow-headed idol called Moloch. Elites have been part of secret organizations since forever, they are elites, their natural impulse is to make themselves more elite by joining these groups. Its been like that since forever.

I'm sure Trump is also part of some rich-guy secret clique.

And now some Whataboutism from Zeo, rather than accepting the article he posted is deeply stupid.
