    Sure it didnt. Funny how it is AntiSemitism when some group you deem not pure enough (Politico) does it to Bernie though...must be a coincidence. (they are both equally bad according to Jewish Community...but what would they know amirite)

    And show me where Chelsea said anything "Anti-Muslim" or with "bigotry". You cant cause she didnt.

    Here is the tweet:




    Yeah she is truly trying to bring down the Muslims! Those NYU Snowflakes sure did nail it! Not even Dubya was so Anti-Muslim!!


    Keep trying though...I am sure "Anti-Muslim Bigotry" is why Ilhan screwed up her taxes as well.

    Oh and before you somehow turn this into me trafficking in "Anti-Muslim Bigotry" any racism is wrong. I dont want any discriminated against. (and I voted for Ilhan!)

        She's your Muslim friend that every Democrat must have?

        The tables have turned on Bernie. Now his people are the ones acting like the girl in Poltergeist screaming "WHAT'S HAPPENING?!?!" ever since Biden entered the race.

          Hey, there are four on my 12-person trivia team. In fact now I think of it we only have one Christian.

          Cuz, ya know, smart.

          I begin to think Sanders doesn't have a campaign team but more of the Space Monkeys set up from Fight Club. They're really not doing much of anything. Maybe he's just in there to keep the candidates honest and committed to TEH MARCH OF WORLD SOCIALISM!!!1! (which, well, good).

            To be fair I think everyone, myself included, is surprised by Biden's staying power. A lot of campaigns and media wiseguys were either trying to create or buying into the narrative that Biden's support is a mile wide and an inch deep, and that he can never win the nomination of the "new" Democratic party. That may very well turn out to be true, but he's clearly inside the heads of some rival campaigns more than others. The bottom line is he's unmatched in name recognition and has thus far earned the backing of non-white voters. That allows him to compete in places without setting up an extensive campaign infrastructure. Will that be decisive? Who knows, but its an advantage that he has over everyone else in the field except for Sanders and maybe Warren.

              When have I ever said anything about anti-semitism towards Bernie? It's literally never happened.

              edit: forgot about the blatant politico anti-semitism where they took down the tweet and apologized. That was actually an accurate statement though.

              And show me where Chelsea said anything "Anti-Muslim" or with "bigotry". You cant cause she didnt.

              Here is the tweet:



              "As an American" in reply to Ilhan alludes to Ilhan not being an American or at the very least I can see how it could be interpreted that way even if that wasn't necessarily her intent.

              Either way there's more substance to that claim than the claim that Ilhan is anti-semitic.

                  Why would you say, "as an American", in that context?

                        I don't agree with you at all. Nate is great at numbers and he's great at communicating them. Everybody left, right, and center finds a reason to hate him because sometimes the facts step on their pet theories.

                        Facts > beliefs. Don't mistake what you think for what's true.

                            No ****, leave that part out then since nobody is questioning that and there's no reason to phrase it that way

                            There is some validity to the claim that olds are being over sampled in a lot of these polls if the exit polls from the midterms are even remotely accurate. Then there's this laugher:



                            Like sure, there's probably a bunch of people who have CNN on all day in the background who think they're paying close attention to the campaign but couldn't even tell you what the obvious differences are between the various candidates in terms of policy. It's basically meaningless and trying to extrapolate anything from it like he is is silly. And let's not even get into his self delusion that he's some type of strategist lmao.

                              You are speculating about his methodology to claim he is just speculating. Do the research before making claims. I understand you don't like his conclusions. The fact that you don't like them has absolutely no bearing on their substance.

                              And let's not even get into his self delusion that he's some type of strategist lmao.
                              I have never seen either him or Harry Enten present themselves as anything but statisticians who understand and try to explain data. The conclusions I have seen them draw have been modest and well-supported. On the science <---> opinion continuum they are very much to the science side.

                              If you're going to challenge them on methodology or on their extrapolations then do so specifically citing their metrics and indices, goodness of fit, robustness, and confidence intervals. This is math. Your opinion doesn't mean jack sh-t compared to math.

                                Here is a wild idea...cause she is an American?

                                Again I find it funny...you say when Ilhan said similar things about Jews that she didnt mean it that way. (ya know being beholden to a foreign country and all) Yet here you are doing the exact same thing to Chelsea. I wonder why that is...

                                And BTW I said Ilhan was stupid and she should parse her words better but probably NOT Antisemitic when she made her comments. (I bet you can go back and find my posts) I also said Politico's cartoon was a bit overblown but they need to be smarter than that.
