Eh. Not as big of a deal as you might think.

If either side in Washington were able to govern worth a damn, such an event wouldn't be a possibility.

True. And to your point on governance, a contest between the most anti-establishment candidates from each side speaks to the high frustration level of the electorate.

That's what we call a "clue" in the business.

The answer isn't so easy.

Yep. When looking at the election from a idealistic standpoint, Trump vs Sanders is hard to conceive. When looking at the election from a pragmatic standpoint, it would be hard to tell a Trump/Sanders government from what is in Washington now.

Although, to be fair, at least Sanders has the possibility of differentiating himself on personal characteristics verse what is in Washington.

My wife has a Prius. It is a gasoline-electric hybrid. The batteries are recharged internally . . . coal has nothing to do with it.

He is talking about the electricity which recharges your batteries. Depending on where you live, that electricity is produced by coal.

Yep, but if Abe doesn't have a plug in Prius the battery is charged with electricity generated by the vehicle itself.

I have an electric vehicle, but natural gas is the primary source of electric where I live.

Clinton really is losing ground quickly after her recovery a few months ago. The latest round of polls are awful for her.

Jeb Bush continues to attack Rubio for Flip Flopping on Immigration, and in a recent ad made fun of Rubio's height.

Establishment republicans are now telling Bush (they have given up on him winning the nomination) to lay off of Rubio, the now preferred candidate of Establishment Republicans.
