This is a bit odd and perhaps we're past the point of it being relevant, but I don't get why Sanders won't release his tax returns. I personally don't expect to find the dude is hiding money in the Cayman Islands, but what gives?

I don't get it either but since you brought him up voting for Sanders today made me feel great.

That's cool and I'm glad you got a chance. As I said before Sanders has every right to stay in this thing until Hillary secures a majority of pledged delegates which most likely won't happen until CA, etc on June 7th.

Oddly enough that will make the last 2 Dem primary races (non-incumbent) going all the way to the last states.

This ought to be good reading tonight:

Sadly, I will have moved out of CA before the primary - and after FL's, so I won't have the pleasure of voting against Rover.

15 miles from Ithaca in upstate NY isn't too different from the South. It's not like talk radio is only big in red states. There are huge red swathes of blue states, too. Just as I'm sure there are solid blue college towns and cities in all red states.

Sadly, Madison WI has become one.

You can always vote for Trump in November!

A thought - tD is in trouble because of Trump U. HRC is in trouble because of the email fiasco (more on that here). It would be interesting if both candidates are indicted between the end of the conventions and election day.

Only one interesting race in MD today. Who wins the Democratic Senate primary? Rep. Chris Van Hollen (Montgomery Cty) vs. Rep. Donna Edwards (Prince Georges Cty). I hope it's CvH.

I appreciate joe posting the dicknixon tweets. For one thing, I do not do your newfangled kid Twitter thing, since my belt onion interferes with the reception. For another, that guy's funnier than sh-t.

Don't be the thread police.
