No idea what this even means.

Anyway, Dems will win - no matter who is the nominee for each party.

It will be a very long time before the GOP wins a general election again. Drastic gerrymandering is about the only way they can win seats in either house outside of some the extreme right wing areas as it is now.

I don't project anything 2 years out. In fact, I don't project anything beyond tomorrow. Tomorrow I project that I will shoot a 104 at Meadow Lake.

Odd that I was just listening to a woman who claims to be a prophetess, and has a rather impressive track record of predictions, say there will not be a presidential election in 2016 and barry will remain in office.

Not saying that is the case. just find it odd to have heard the same obscure prediction twice in a matter of minutes.

Warren v Romney.

Romney wins by the slimmest of margins.

The democrat will win because of the demographics. It will be decades, even centuries, before a republican wins because of the exponentially increasing percentage of black and brown voters.

There has never been anything like this in American Politics.

This isn't a prediction.

Romney/Ayotte


Interesting that you threw out Ayotte's name today.

Latest Suffolk University/Boston Herald poll came out today, showing Scott Brown trailing Jeanne Shaheen by 3 points and popular Dem. Governor Maggie Hassan leading Walt Havenstein by 10 points.

Dems currently hold the governorship, both House seats and one Senate seat. The state gave Obama a 10 point win in 2008 and a 6 point win in 2012. The state also gave Hillary Clinton a big comeback win in the 2008 primary after she finished 3rd in Iowa. Dems hold a 55%-45% edge in the 400-member NH House, and the state Senate shows a narrow 13-11 Republican lead. All in all, Dems are in control right now here in NH.

With that in mind, consider the following.

The poll released today included the following names in a "favorable or unfavorable" question:

Barack Obama
Hillary Clinton
Governor Hassan
Senator Shaheen
Scott Brown
Walt Havenstein (Hassan's opponent)
Republican Sen. Kelly Ayotte

I'm guessing I don't have to tell you the winner in that group with a 54% Favorable vs 31% Unfavorable (+23) rating ...

If obama wanted to stay in office past 2016, he would just run the first lady for prez instead of trying to change election law. I guess he could say unlike Hillary, Mrs O doesn't need to the training of being a senator or sec of state. Maybe run biden as veep again, he seems like a nice lapdog so the ticket is still obama/biden.

Yeah I don't understand that line from him either. Clinton was a MUCH better President than Dubya or Obama. MUCH better. I don't even see how any sane person can contest that.

It's not that obscure - I remember that back when I still went to church our dumbass praying in tongues teacher said something like "42" means "final" in Biblical terms and since Clinton was president #42 he claimed that we wouldn't have another president. So fricking dumb. Not surprised to hear the right wing loons predict the same shite again.

I know that Warren has a better liberal track record and that Hillary isn't exactly Miss Congeniality, but man.. Elizabeth Warren is so soft spoken and boring. I just don't see how she's tough enough to beat Hillary.

Hillary fricking NEEEEEEDS the nomination so bad. She will literally have people murdered this time to get it

Well I'm not basing my thoughts on some prophecy chick or Monty Python classic (your church teacher was probably trolling your retard arse ha ha).

Just putting it out there. Like my wife and kids, a couple years down the road you'll be like, 'damn that dude was smart!'.

I saw that poll..I was a little surprised Hillary was almost under water in favorability.

I also laughed at 1 person responding "never heard of" for Barack Obama.

Hillary had a 0 in that category

You're not putting anything out there. When the 2016 election happens, which it will, you'll just say "I said a 50/50 chance...."
