California Dreaming: Clinton sees big win, Sanders an upset

Trump and Clinton are magnets for criticism in distinct ways, from Trump’s brand of fractious populism to Clinton’s long and controversial political history.

“My job’s hanging in the balance right now”, he said.

He still needs to win 66 per cent of the remaining primary and caucus delegates if he hopes to overtake her -a figure that didn’t change on Tuesday.

Polls are only a snapshot in time, as Trump’s critics have been telling us since July.

Thursday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Democratic strategist and long-time Clinton confidante James Carville admitted that Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton has some image problems that must be addressed before the November general election.

The California campaign of Sanders, a USA senator from Vermont, has conceded he faces an uphill battle. Further, what is/was the culpability of the former first lady, who did not throw her husband out of the (White)house and decided instead to compete to return him there, albeit only as first gentleman?

With four primaries left, Bernie Sanders should maintain a competitive attitude which could bring him even more victories.

Chris Wilder has worked for nine years as an electrician doing fix work at coal mines in West Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio and Virginia.

Sanders said to loud cheers in Salem, Oregon that a host of polls, both nationally and in various states, shows he’d do better than Hillary Clinton in an Autumn election campaign against Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

If given the choice between the current presidential candidates, military personnel said they would rather see Donald Trump in the White House than Hillary Clinton.

“The bottom line”, wrote the Post’s James Hohmann, “is most people are not voting for [Sanders] because he is liberal”.

Sanders’ campaign, however, has pegged a win in the state as proof of his platform’s viability ahead of the party convention. Bernie Sanders won the county with more votes than both candidates combined, en route to a winning share of 51 percent statewide.

According to CNN, nearly 40% of Democratic voters in West Virginia expressed a desire for a “less liberal” president than Barack Obama.

In the end, Farrell only ended up with 8.8 percent of the vote overall. Somehow or other it always seems to be in the mud. It’s just a more conservative electorate across the board, which is why Clinton’s damage control regarding her remarks about putting coal miners out of business was so offensive.

“The New Deal era, and for the politicians following that, it was about what the government can do”, says Pearson-Merkowitz.

“Does the fact that Trump is more of an isolationist and would be less likely to get us involved in an overseas conflict make a difference to our troops?”

Finally, there’s the influence of big-money donors on American politics. We really need somebody in here for coal.

More than 100,000 West Virginians will have their ballots counted in Tuesday’s election, even though the only competitive presidential primary race is on the Democratic side.

The attacks on Trump’s xenophobic policies and derogatory comments toward women will be used to help Clinton grasp the votes of minorities and women.
