Ah, from The Thick of It

Frisky Dingo Style plane crash that somehow leaves Mr. Ford in charge? (which I guess would be Ben Carson or Herman Cain somehow)

AMERICA! FUCK YEAH!

If it upsets him then it's not worthless.

I don't know if they swung the election though. They're the mainstays who prop that average up

Then he can't get free handfuls of pennies anymore (which I guess is like 2-4 for him but still)

YES!

Only things that come to mind

ROB RIGGLED!

No this was about Politics in Canberra.

Swinging super delegates is fine if it's to make it more proportional/give more leverage at the convention to get Clinton to adopt better policies.

Sure if anyone bothered to look at the policies that'd be relevant. Clinton didn't really emphasize these polices though and downplayed the issue in the primaries which given her history as one of the 'elite' giving speeches to Goldman Sachs etc didn't really help. Trump said 'hey I'll bring back the jobs' and that

Having a go at the media for largely ignoring him is fair and the campaign he ran was child's play compared to the Republican primary. I didn't like when some were saying they should try to swing the super delegates when he'd lost the election but Sanders was never going to pursue that.

I'm sure there are some white working class people who want some economic security but would prefer not to demise other groups

"and that the only reason he wasn't winning was because of Democratic corruption and the lying media"

Well that's the best version of events. It was more that it feels like it's people like RFK and Giffords who get shot while I never hear the same of up and coming asshole Republicans.

Why don't people like Cruz get shot in the head? The world is unbearably unfair at times.

Im hindsight it was a bad matchup and in the primaries it was by biggest concern with Clinton. The mood is anti-establishment and Clinton is 100% establishment while Trump made all the anti-establishment noise required to harness that energy.

I think this election highlights bigger issues for the Democrats than the 1% of Stein voters. If it's that hard to beat president baby then there are fundamental problems with the party that need to be fixed (but will not because you can just wait 4-8 years for the mood to change and that's easier.

Is there no middleground where the Democrats address class issues (the appeal to the white guys in Wisconsin etc) and don't abandon the coalition you mention? I don't see how these things are anything but mutually compatible.
