“Ultimately, in the context of the game, this call did not really matter so much; the Cubs required just one more pitch to strike Granderson out.”

I need to form a support group for people who have always liked and related to Hillary, and therefore in this election feel like outcasts.
He overplayed his hand so, so badly. He’ll get much less than he would’ve in terms of concessions than if he’d brokered a deal for an endorsement a few weeks ago.
OFFS. This “-1 replies” thing means this got flagged as a troll, right? This isn’t a goddamn troll. Not everyone who disagrees with a specific thing posted on Jezebel is a racist/misogynist troll. We can be on the same team and disagree over whether it’s good journalism to mention that the guy who just got *unjustly…
I think this is a really good point that a lot of people miss in their haste to paint a picture of him as a great guy, a kind and loving family man who wouldn’t hurt a fly and didn’t deserve to be shot.
Yeah, not saying that the cops handled this right, but unlike seemingly everyone in our hot-take, social media obsessed society, I won’t jump to conclusions one way or another. Hopefully the store security camera or earlier footage before the officer tackle will show what lead to the altercation.
Yeah, I don’t actually disagree with anything you’ve said either. I get what you’re trying to say. This is a weird situation.

Complaining about closed primaries seems like complaining that you can’t vote in for a neighboring town’s mayor. You don’t live in that town! Sorry!
Closed primaries are bad because Sanders did poorly in them. Caucuses are good because Sanders did well in them. Hope that clears everything up!
silly silly JoMarch. Take that logic elsewhere. IT DOES NOT BELONG HERE!
It also allows non-party members to sabotage the process to choose a weaker nominee.
Seriously. Why wouldn’t a private organization support only members of their organization picking the defacto leader of that organization?
Exactly. The alternative is called ratfucking.
Literally everybody acting like the super delegates not officially voting until the convention means Bernie has a chance is a fucking moron. Why is it that we were fine with Obama being the presumptive nominee with a delegate count that included super delegates, but all of a sudden the rules are different when it’s a…
