That would be a reversal. Trump can spend money while she gets the free media.Pinku-Senseihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16247618351725715844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27554065.post-53549049941717714652016-06-10T23:24:35.106-04:002016-06-10T23:24:35.106-04:00To be fair, we do sometimes shoot ourselves in the... To be fair, we do sometimes shoot ourselves in the foot here in California (See Schwarzenegger, Arnold and also Wilson, Peter or really Reagan, Ronald and/or Nixon, Richard) but things are different now. We are the anti-Kansas, governmentally speaking, and a lot of us know it. <br /> I don't care if Trump campaigns here, except for one thing, and being a Roy Cohn acolyte, he may actually be smart enough to be trying this: there will be violence that he can exploit at his rallies. I don't believe it will be enough for a Nixon style "law and order" victory, but it won't help, and it will happen. On the other hand, it's very expensive to campaign here, and any of his (ironically) limited resources we can drain away from the swing states will only help Hillary. <br /> Could he be buying his own bullshit, and starting to believe that everybody loves him and that he will win in a walk? They all do it to one extent or another, and he is a novice candidate to the extreme. <br /> He won't carry my district, I can guarantee you that much: we just re-elected Barbara Lee again with nearly 80% of the vote...<br /><br /> -Doug in Oakland dinthebeasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12941071534250216503noreply@blogger.com
