But it ended up going beyond that because it was the first time a black candidate gathered substantial support across racial lines in a national election, even if it was just in the primary process and really just in a handful of states, including Vermont, before the campaign's implosion. That was huge and had a big role in many minority candidates being viewed as viable in races at all levels going forward. From that point on, there was a clear data point you could point to when someone said "but will whites vote for a black candidate".

Jesse personally ended up very disappointing, not just with the hymietown language but in lots of other ways, though there is an odd way that helped, because the discussion about whether or not you could get support for black candidate X became "even Jesse Jackson could get substantial white support...". We gotta get Wonk on here for any discussion of Jesse in Chicago. The impact is big and complicated, but I think on the whole very positive.

There is a little vignette in Boss, Mike Royko's masterful look at Richard M. Daley, in which Royko writes of a Black preacher, new to Chicago from Greenville, Mississippi I believe, who moved into Bridgeport and was ultimately burned out of the neighborhood (Daley's neighborhood and historic Irish enclave). The minister essentially declared war on Daley, the machine, and Chicago's white power structure from that day forward. The young preacher was a fellow named Jesse Jackson.

Jesse went on to do some great things for Chicago and for racial justice in general. But that first welcome to Chicago was what informed his whole political zeitgeist forever after.

I will say this, though: It's been a tough row to hoe getting over her bullshit tactics during the primary in '08. I understand that she probably puts this kind of racial jiggery pokery piggledly pookery in the same bucket as all other political gamesmanship, but I don't view it that way. That shit really pissed me off.

Hilary's biggest problem, and the reason I would vote for almost anyone but Trump, Cruz, or Paul Ryan over her, is that Wall Street's hand is so far up her ass she seems to choke on its fingers any time she talks financial regulation or reform.

I strongly suspect I will wind up writing in Bernie this year. I'd rather throw away my vote on a futile protest than cast it in favor of Goldman Sachs.

You know I love you dearly, but you do realize that when Bernie rails about how she got $15 million from Wall Street last quarter that more than half of that was from George Soros alone, not generally known as a Wall Street/Goldman Sachs kind of guy. If you do fall for the "contribution determinist" position, I think the guy up her ass is George, and, frankly, that's a fine place for him.

Of course, if Bernie thinks Hillary will just do whatever her donors want her to do, then he ought to go out and raise funds for her and downballot dems if he doesn't win this one, and make them beholden to all his holier than thouers.

I assume he may care about more than just his own election, but maybe that's wrong so there's no point in helping other dems if/ when he loses.

I don't know about IL, but you and I can safely make voting for president an act of self expression. There is no way Oregon's and California's electoral votes aren't going for the dem candidate, regardless of who we individually vote for. Assuming she's the nominee, I'll likely vote Hillary anyway. But my vote literally Does. Not. Matter., and I'd have no problem voting Green, or writing in Bernie, or whatever.

Heck, I voted for Nader once.

I was a Texan voting in a GWB election and was hoping to see the Greens break the % for federal campaign matching funds. I was pretty sure that Texas would be going red, in any case.

Wonk is either voting in a solid red* or a solid blue state.

if it is Trump, I'm not sure there will be such a thing.

I don't look at things on a quarterly basis. I'm not a hedge fund manager. I look at the course of her career, from the good old days when Rahm was twisting arms for Bill on to today. Her vote for GLB is sort of a watermark for her career and I think that particular piece of legislation has done more harm to the American people than any other act in memory, with the possible exceptions of the PATRIOT Act or the AUMF, a/k/a repeal of the 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendments.

We may be in an election like no other this year, where no one really knows if many states are reliably red or blue. But beyond that, the more people that talk about "protest votes," who say that voting for Clinton is "voting for Goldman Sachs," who assert that "both parties are exactly the same," the more that view is legitimized and the more people act on that view.

Mine wouldn't be a protest vote. It will be a vote for the candidate best suited for the job. A protest vote would be me writing in Triumph the insult comic dog, who would still be better than Trump or Cruz.

If you actually believe this, you have completely lost your mind. I suspect that you have not lost your mind.

You are spouting the same sort of shit that Naderites spouted in 2000, and anyone who would claim that the GWB administration did nothing different or more damaging than a Gore administration would have done has buried his head so deeply in his ass that he can lick his own stomach.

So, in your view, she's at worst neutral.

Compare that to Trump or Cruz. Please pay particular attention to the 2-3 SCOTUS vacancies that the next President will likely fill, and bear in mind that the 3 oldest justices are Ginsburg, Kennedy, and Breyer. Who would you rather nominate the replacement for Ginsburg? (Not to mention the seat that is currently empty.)


"Writing in the best person for the job" is a protest vote -- you are protesting the fact that the so-called best person is not actually in the race. An election is about choosing the better option.

I just noticed those last few words.


Yeah, President Clinton would be every bit as bad as putting a radical climate-change denier in the White House. Especially if the Republicans continue to control Congress. I mean, there is just no chance whatsoever that Trump or Cruz would roll back environmental laws. They'd probably be too busy repealing Obamacare and criminalizing abortion.

My first opportunity to vote was for Clinton, which I did twice. I voted against Bush twice, but I didn't hold my nose voting for Gore or Kerry (who were both just strategically dumb candidates). Obviously I voted for Obama twice.

I know that I am the only one here closely following the details of the GOP primary antics, so here are today's developments.

1. Ted Cruz is trying to keep Kasich off the ballot in Montana. It appears the Kasich campaign may have screwed up paperwork in a third state. This is good for Cruz because Montana is a mix of moderates and libertarians who vote L, and no polling in the last year to indicate what is going on.

2. Trump's lack of thought before shooting off his mouth and lack of competent campaign staff is coming back to bite him. It seems the S. Carolina GOP is not pleased with his reneging on the pledge to support the GOP nominee at the CNN Town Hall. Given that S. Carolina already has some unfriendly structural issues for Trump (delegates only bound on first ballot and had to have attended the 2015 state convention), there is now a possibility that he may be subject to a challenge once the delegates are elected, releasing them on the first ballot and making them free agents (and generally unlikely to vote Trump).

Honest question: Do you think that if Trump screws up his lead and falls to Cruz or Cruz wins a contested/broken/open (or whatever) convention, Cruz wins the general? I know you like the guy, but you don't really think this is possible, do you? I mean, besides the fact that the guy is unelectable outside of tea party Texas (or the other backwards red states), Trump supporters will be absolutely ballistic.

Trump would lose to Hillary, and badly. He's down in head-to-head polling by as much as 11 points and the most favorable to him I have found has him down 7. Cruz was tied with or leading Hillary until late February when Trump and Carson went on their Cruz is a Liar push. Now Cruz is only down to Hillary by 3-4% head-to-head. I think that time will bring him back up a bit and they may be pretty close in another month or 2.

I don't think that Hillary will receive anywhere near the turnout that Obama did. I think that While Hillary's voters would pull the lever for Bernie, I am not certain his youthful followers would be as willing to come out for her in such numbers. Interestingly enough, a recent poll had Cruz over Hillary by 14 points with voters under 35, whereas she killed in younger voters against Trump by over 20 points. I think that Hillary loses some support if the Never Trumpers have an alternative.

I concede the odds only have Rs winning the presidency at about a 25% chance now. The real tossup is the crazy stuff that can happen. Riots in Cleveland. How many ballots and how the nominee is picked. Rule changes intended to disadvantage someone. Kasich picking the president ( http://www.politico.com/magazine/sto...esident-213645).

What really, really, pisses me off about Kasich is that no matter how much he says he's not trying to be a spoiler, literally the only chance he has is if Trump doesn't come to the convention with a majority. So what is Kasich doing in Wisconsin? Attacking Cruz. Seriously. He is inexplicably intentionally sabotaging his only chance at his stated goal [unless his real goal is to be Trump's VP]. It would seem more rational to put the ad $$ towards attacking Trump, no? [All speculative as Kasich has no chance on being on the ballot as he has no prayer of winning a majority of delegates from 8 states (or 6 under the pre-Romney rules), and that to be on a subsequent ballot, you have to be on the first ballot, but whatever, Kasich has demonstrated he has no concern for rules.]
