By any reasonable measure she is in a posiition that she is immensely likely to win dsc Oct 2014 #31

The question coming up then sadoldgirl Oct 2014 #32

Why do you think she loses to Jeb? wyldwolf Oct 2014 #37

Probably the same reasons you think that Warren would lose to him... cascadiance Oct 2014 #39

There are polls showing Clinton stomps Jeb wyldwolf Oct 2014 #40

Just the person that the corporate media running those polls want to push! cascadiance Oct 2014 #42

oh, you subscribe to the Mitt Romney school of polling wyldwolf Oct 2014 #50

So... You think that I follow a belief of Romney that Warren might stomp Jeb Bush?... cascadiance Oct 2014 #61

you just professed a belief polls are rigged. Mitt Romney, 2012. wyldwolf Oct 2014 #62

So... You think that I believe that a "liberal media" has the polls rigged against corporatists? cascadiance Oct 2014 #64

"corporate media running those polls want to push!" - You believe the polls are rigged. Romney, 2012 wyldwolf Oct 2014 #65

So... Are you saying that Romney believes that the *CORPORATE MEDIA* had the polls rigged? cascadiance Oct 2014 #68

Romney and his ilk claimed the 2012 polls were rigged against him. You're denying that happened?? wyldwolf Oct 2014 #69

How does that have ANYTHING to do with what I said!? cascadiance Oct 2014 #70

You said the media is pushing one person in particular. That they're rigging the polls. wyldwolf Oct 2014 #71

If they know that real UNRIGGED polls support THEIR candidates (Clinton)... cascadiance Oct 2014 #76

Simple. The polls are not rigged. wyldwolf Oct 2014 #77

So, just NOT having a poll on a someone is "rigging that poll".... cascadiance Oct 2014 #123

evidence "the process is rigged"? wyldwolf Oct 2014 #124

I've always stated that it is my BELIEF that it is rigged... cascadiance Oct 2014 #125

and that belief isn't based on evidence? wyldwolf Oct 2014 #132

It's believed on by the FACT that most of our media is owned by a handful of corporations! cascadiance Oct 2014 #141

which doesn't prove polls are being rigged! wyldwolf Oct 2014 #143

I DID NOT SAY THE POLLS WERE RIGGED! cascadiance Oct 2014 #145

YES YOU DID! lol! wyldwolf Oct 2014 #146

I guess wyldwolf doesn't understand what constitutes poll rigging! GOT IT! cascadiance Oct 2014 #147

Just referring to your words. wyldwolf Oct 2014 #148

I am too... cascadiance Oct 2014 #149

then we agree. You think the polls are rigged for Hillary - the same way Romney whined about polls wyldwolf Oct 2014 #150

That's it.. Your continued CRAP that you spew about me just earned you an ignore! cascadiance Oct 2014 #151
