    If VA is in play we've won, in the same way that if MD is in play we've lost.

    No **** if Texas is in play it's a landslide.

    Back to your original statement. Hillary won VA. how does VA being in play mean we've won?

      So, you're gonna whine and pout with the rest of the Bernie Bros, instead of working to make sure the Democratic nominee gets every vote they possibly can?

      Biitch and cry, "I ain't voting for that clown", loud and often, along with all the rest of the immature losers?
      What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

        I have three jobs. And a tumor in my head that makes me disabled. And neuropathy that causes intense pain in my legs. Somehow I still manage to find time to volunteer.

        Don't think for a moment the rhetoric I use in this looney bin remotely resembles what I say on the campaign trail when I'm talking with voters...

          If VA is in play, Democrats are in trouble.

            The polling is months out of date for two of those states and in Michigan/WI the latest polls are from January, which probably doesn't reflect Biden sinking from then to now.
            It's not exact of course. Just offering up some data to suggest that no one is a slam dunk right now to beat Trump (as bizarre as that sounds) and we shouldn't assume even Bernie is our best chance. He might well be but there's a lot ahead of us.

            No, they don't, they support the idea that the election was embarrassingly close because she didn't generate nearly the level of turnout that Obama did in 2008.
            This assumes though that Bernie would be more inspiring enough to overcome those that sat home last time. Will there be Hillary voters as childish this time around if Bernie gets the nod that also stay home in measurable numbers? Will the GOP Hate Machine ratchet up their propaganda x10? Will Bernie inspire even more knuckle-draggers to get out and vote?

            I think these are legit questions to ask and is not me bagging on Bernie.

              Wait. Really?

              OK, make it NC then.

                I've been working to get the best candidate nominated to beat Trump which is probably more than what you're doing.

                  I assume I'll be going to PA, which is the closest purple to me. If VA is on the cusp we've already won. If MD is in doubt we've already lost. WV is hopeless. So, PA.

                  I didn't do it in 2016 and we lost PA and I have felt sh-tty ever since.
                  If Virginia is in play we've already lost. If Maryland is in play some 11-year old with a good Internet connection has hacked the election system.

                        The "vote against HRC" crowd would nary notice Klobuchar, and just that difference could be enough.

                        Bernie the socialist; Obama's Veep; that guy with a husband; she lied that she's a minority: All would mobilize the other side's base.
