Well that is a dagger in the Trump momentum. Months and months (and months and months) of hand wringing...

Here's the speech I was working up my courage to make if no one else was going to speak on behalf of Rubio:

"Marco Rubio is not my first choice.  My first choice is Chris Christie.  However, tonight I will be casting my vote for Rubio because he represents the best chance of stopping Donald Trump.  If you feel about Trump the same way I do, please join me in voting for Marco Rubio.

Thank you."

Since August I have consistently been making posts that Trump is not getting the nomination, even if that has been lost in a tsunami of tim posts with Trump at the top of the polls. I apologize for not posting harder.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

In real life I never talk about politics. Even my close family isn't sure whether I'm a republican or democrat. The first exception to that is that I've been rather open on how much I hate donald trump. I would have proudly made a fuck donald trump speech.

Road to Damascus conversions from people over 60 who want to be President just aren't convincing enough for some people.

On the 538 blog, they have mentioned that a lot of the votes that are out are from a county Hillary is strong in.

I don't know that it really matters at this point. It is basically a tie. There may be reviews of the count, most people are in bed by now anyway, and we are off to New Hampshire.

I read that Clinton has 27 delegates vs Sanders' 22, with two to go. That includes super delegates, and taking precincts (or whatever they're called) into account. So even if Sanders breaks 50% Clinton will end up ahead in delegates.

... if what I read is true, anyhow.

No one is required to give a speech.  They passed around a clip board at the beginning with the list of candidates.  Anyone who wanted to could write their name down in order to give a speech promoting that particular candidate.

There were still several blanks on the clipboard when the speeches began, so the chairman just read off a candidate name and asked if anyone wanted to speechify on his behalf.

Neither are the semi-anonymous people you vent to online, at least not 100%.
