At least there are some sane states left to avenge Bernie for the filthy South and its voters with their Hillary-fetish ...

I really can't wait until Austria is a Muslim-majority country.

Bernie could be the Goldwater of the left. He might not succeed now, but his message is showing that the youth want to return this party to the party of labor, not soccer moms.

More like McGovern imo. Over-optimistic college youth learn to lose the hard way.

People who were college students in 1972, 1984, 1988, and 2004 say they were convinced that the Democratic candidate would win, and that they didn't know anyone who voted for the Republican, are shocked on election night, devolve into conspiracy theories, and eventually learn to accept that their candidate lost fair and square.

The college campus bubble is strong and has been around for 50 years. Young people no matter what decade they live in think the world revolves around them. I'm guilty of this sometimes myself. It's nothing new.

Wtf do you even mean? Most students knew how all those elections would go except for 2004 and Republicans did good with the college vote in 72 and 84.

Ask people who were liberal activists during those times. They completely bought into it as well. Talk to them. They'll tell you.

I wouldn't be surprised if part of Hillary's strength with voters over 40 is this cautious attitude. That, and Bernie's laser focus on college students.
