Election Day Poll No. Whatever

I'm trying to feel better about that, but I can't get past his advocacy for preemptive nuclear strike.

I signed up for the Calexit email list today

 

Middle class white America is sick of all the pandering to minorities, the freebie handouts to the poor that refuse to work, and they're tired of the same old BS Washington politicians. Sure the emails hurt, but that wasn't it at all. Obama was supposed to be a vote for change, but all he was was more of the same and in fact it got worse with ObamaCare. People want change and they saw it in Obama because it was visual, something they could see and touch. It doesn't matter what color, race or identity their president is. They don't want to be the world's caretaker when we've got our own problems at home. They want someone that will stand up and do something for them.

This election was real simple to figure out. Trump had the pulse of the American people nailed all along while the idiot politicians just went on practicing and preaching the same old crap. Trump's team deciding to make battleground states out of Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Ohio shows who was clearly more intelligent and knew how to win while everyone else blew them off and said he was wasting his time.

Nobody listened to Michael Moore in July but he was exactly right. The angry, rural, middle class white American male decided he'd had enough. Trump listened and went after those voters hard. It was never really that difficult to see coming if you just didn't listen to the liberal-ass media trying to tell you how to think and vote.

 

So, what's the sporting equivalent to Hillary? The 69 Colts?

 

18-1 Patriots

 

She was never that good. 2012 Notre Dame, or any other paper tiger you care to name.

EDIT: I change my answer to 2013-14 Kentucky basketball. Cal spent the preseason saying 40-0 was the goal, then gets punched in the mouth three games in by Michigan State. Stumbles through the SEC schedule before going on a wild run as a No. 8 seed to reach the title game but couldn't put the ball in the basket against UConn. Classic underachievers that thought their shit didn't stink.

 

I don't agree with all of this ... your first sentence could be a statement from 50 years ago, and we've had plenty of liberal/progressive politicians since then.

However, you're dead-on about how "the establishment" — media, the D.C. political class, people living on the coasts — looked down on Trump and his supporters. They underestimated and undercounted them. And they lost to them.

 

I got a kick out of those folks telling the pollsters and the liberal media to shove it up their collective butt.

 

They didn't underestimate Trump supporters. They overestimated liberals showing up for Clinton

 

That is true, if you change liberals to Democrats.

 

2004 Yankees?

 

'85 Villanova; Boise State v. OU; '88 Dodgers.

 

As much as it pains me to type it: 1986 Miami Hurricanes
