OFFICIAL Elizabeth Warren is awesome thread

Elizabeth Warren is crude, rude, obnoxious and dumb - other than that I like her very much!

Like I was about the election, huh?

That claim rings rather hollow, considering what both of us said leading up to last November. As RJ likes to say, though, don't let the facts get in the way of your statements.

Hey, Captain Dementia, your last prediction for the election included the phrases "the odds are against him" and "but there's a chance". In other words, you did not predict shit, so stop trying to take credit for a prediction you didn't make -- this what we call #alternativefacts. It's meaningless in any event, but particularly meaningless when you lie about it. You effectively had the same prediction as me: "Hillary is probably going to win, but there's a chance the orange egoblob wins"
 
Talking about predictions before the Comey October surprise is meaningless anyway. I still thought Clinton would win, but I felt much more nervous about it on election night.
 
Bernie chimes in to say he read the same letter and wasn't warned or reprimanded by anyone. Also says that McConnell owes her a public apology.
 
The top 6 headlines on CNN are about some senator being cutoff in a confirmation hearing? WGAF #Fairandbalanced

Comey did not swing the election

How'd your super bowl butt turn out?
 
Great and the poll movements don't support that assertion unless you believe Trump could have won the Electoral College while losing the popular vote by 7 or 8 million.

No actually the la times was the worst national poll. The others were right on with Clinton's 2% PV win. La times had Trump +3% or 4%

ITT Moonz demonstrates he knows nothing about polls (or reality in general).

You realize that national polls predict popular vote and not electoral vote?

yes

The tracking poll was not perfect, of course; it projected Trump to win in the popular vote by slightly more than 3 percentage points, but in reality Hillary Clinton seems set to gain a slender popular vote majority, currently about 0.2%. Her margin could expand as late ballots are counted in heavily Democratic California.

That result, however, was well within the poll’s margin of error. The more crucial point was that the poll correctly detected Trump’s appeal to a key bloc of voters: conservative whites who had sat out the 2012 election but intended to vote this year. That group strongly favored Trump, the poll found.

The poll’s ability to pick up those voters, Kapteyn said, stemmed from its approach, which differs notably from the one used by most major surveys.

We don't have to speculate on the final popular vote because it is in. Clinton 48.0% Trump 45.9%.

I wonder how many of the Republican senators who voted to silence Warren tweeted MLK quotes for MLK day?
