I’m also going to be very leery about reporting on the election. Take for example the link the Darthstar just put up. I checked the “about” info.

Jacobin is a leading voice of the American left, offering socialist perspectives on politics, economics, and culture. The print magazine is released quarterly and reaches over 20,000 subscribers, in addition to a web audience of 1,000,000 a month.

It is a good guess that they were very pro Bernie Sanders. And I do have issues with “unamed” sources. I believe data when someone puts a name to it and there is a reputation and professionalism behind it.

And that bit about African Americans and Latinos saying “you only come around every four years” sounds canned. That would be more a problem of the Ohio Democratic Party than Clinton’s campaign.

It is true. Only three years ago the Ohio Democratic Party underwent almost complete turnover in the leadership. I don’t follow it real close, but I wonder if they were not up to power with the new people. It had gone through the blender due to Kasich’s killing a lot of Democrats his last two elections.

I’m sorry…we have seen in this election one big thing…a lazy media more interested in turning it all to a reality show with a true reality star and tons of fake/false media.

Count me as skeptical! In a year or so we are going to get the real stories. Right now we are getting butt covering, told you so, and sour grapes.

I don’t like losing any more than anyone else. But it is so easy to say “I knew it” after the fact when we don’t know the facts. Also, we need someone to really study “The Trump Phenomena” because it really was. He steam-rolled 16(?) Republicans (among them Bush and Kasich) and beat Clinton. And he is an oaf! So, there is some kind of “other” dynamic going on that wasn’t totally based in politics. Politicians fell by the wayside.
