    I hope the floodgates really do burst. If she could win by 10% in the popular vote, and take all the “battle states” and a couple supposed red states to boot it will do to things. Put the nail in the coffin, and all their Extremists will try to say it was all stolen and get themselves all in trouble and hopefully forever out of the way of progress

      That won’t happen. If you look at the spread after the battle grounds, you’re talking about a 5-10 point gap even after her current optimistic post-DNC bump.

      Republicans will enjoy a rump caucus indefinitely, unless Democrats seriously overhaul how they operate in the redder states.
