I think so many people think a Clinton presidency is inevitable so they just don't feel the need to get out there.

Primary turnout usually doesn't correlate with turnout in the general election but in the year of the Dorito T'Rumpolini, turnout in the general election will be massive from the Democratic voters.

Actually I've decided that in November, even if Hillary wins the nomination, I will fill in one oval on my ballot. The one for the straight D ticket.

Not because I want Hillary to be President.

And not that it will make any difference as I am in Alabama which will go red no matter what. But only to add one little drop of blue into the sea of red that covers this Hell hole of a state.

If you don't like in AL then why not leave?

I'm sure Ben, Bernie and Jerry would welcome you with open arms.

I really would fit in there I know.

Plus they have the type of gun laws I like too.

But my wife's family is here, so I'm stuck for the time being.

Have you ever been there?

It's pretty but it's boring as shit.

I live in next door NH and people are always assuming they're he same but they're nothing alike.

Exhibit A:

Two textbook examples of rationalization and denial.

Every Repub I know here in Orange county, Calif. is talking about sitting this election out while muttering about going Independent if Herr D'Rumpf gets the nomination.

Yes, Virginia we have more than our share of 'Baggers and wingnuts here in Reagan Country. The Snitch of RKO had his western White House just down the road apiece and Tricky Dick hails from and is buried here.

So, you can take your exhibit A and ram it up your snout...
