It's only going to get worse for trump with Salt Lake.
Sanders winning Utah 56 to 38 with 3.2% in
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;49988957]Explain why it's laughable?[/QUOTE]
Because it's a fuckhuge hilarious generalization. More so in regards to Hispanics, Women, and Blacks. I won't argue that democrats and the "establishment" dislike him, but that's one of the reasons I like him, well not the hate, but more so the fear it's caused in other people
CNN has Sanders ahead by 66 to 30 now in Utah, 6% in.

Cruz definitely appeals to the deeply, traditional conservative Utah Mormons. Mormons are actually one of the most reliable republican voting group; not the biggest, but a very reliable one.

You could read the links I posted that provide statistics on voter demographic and opinion or dismiss it as "laughable". Demographics show a lot of the likeability of a candidate in general and how they appeal to certain voters; It'd be ignorant to think that Trump's comments on women, Hispanics, and blacks don't influence their opinions of him and said influence can show in polls.
Neither of you have addressed my claim to his corporate tax policy at all.

Yikes. I mean, how much does that appeal to you - that he frightens people?
[QUOTE=lope;49988981]CNN has Sanders ahead by 66 to 30 now in Utah, 6% in.[/QUOTE]
I think this is his second state (after New Hampshire), I think, where he leads by that kind of margin.

It's only 6% in though. That margin can change once more of Salt Lake gets in

/r/politics doesn't allow meme images, so I'm hunting for a publicly visible forum where I can post it as on topic and without getting banned.
Idaho announcing!
69.5 Sanders in Utah, 7% reporting. I expected the gap to start narrowing more by now. Still way early to even think about expecting Sanders to come out with more than 50 - but I expected a much more back and forth turnout from the get-go.
:cry: poor balloon...
Idaho so far:
Sanders fucking killing

Explains Trump's success then, think he did it with literally only white males? Also an article by Nate Silver, that's cute, his hate-boner for Trump is worst than FP's.

I don't feel like arguing for other minorities, but Super Tuesday has shown that an overwhelming part of the Black vote will be pro-Hillary.
Prelim results in Idaho:
[B]80% Sanders[/B] to 18% Hillary

Who's reporting Idaho? Guardian hasn't gotten that info yet.
"De La Fuente got 1 vote... That's still 0%" :cry:
Idaho just jumped to 74% Sanders to 24% Clinton, 11% in!!

A good portion of the GOP voter block is overwhelmingly white and male, so it's a good probability.

CNN Live
Holy shit Clinton got rekd in Idaho
Wow, Cruz is landsliding in Utah
[QUOTE=Firgof Umbra;49988998]Yikes. I mean, how much does that appeal to you - that he frightens people?[/QUOTE]
Perhaps because the establishment on both sides is awful, and if they--and those whom they are beholden to--are scared, that's a great sign because it means there might be a positive change.

I guess - but he's also talking about the people in those parties themselves too though, unless I'm misreading his statement. That's the part that worries me.
I'm all for some shaking up of stuff, so long as it doesn't bring the metaphorical house down, but the phrasing of it just comes as ... off to me. Maybe I'm reading too much into his sentence.
Edit: Utah holding at about 75% for Sanders at 10% reporting. I'm impressed that hasn't started slumping by now. There's some big hillary votes in there somewhere, I'm sure of it, I'm just baffled on why we haven't hit them yet.
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;49989054]Wow, Cruz is landsliding in Utah[/QUOTE]
Yeah, like I said; especially once all of Salt Lake County checks in, it's going to be a slaughter.
Cruz falls more in line with Mormon values, he also has Romney's recommendation. A lot of republicans in Utah [I]hate[/I] Trump, it was funny to hear the commentary during republican caucus.
Trump fell to 3rd in Utah, with Kasich in second with 22% (kinda irrelevant since Cruz will likely take-all)
