Is this your source?

C'mon. I don't have a "source". I've just read a number of articles about it. Also heard a Democratic political adviser talking about it on MSNBC yesterday.

A poll doesn't mean a thing between Obama and Hillary's run for the nomination.

Then you should state that the 5% is someone's opinion. It isn't a statistic or a fact--at least not yet.

Isn't it speculation on the part of whomever is stating the 5%? It may come to pass, but it's still just a speculative prediction.

And you really need to stop saying "Duh" to everyone. It makes you sound like a teenager, and it's just plain old disrespectful to some folks on this board who are pretty intelligent, myself included.

You come across as thinking your ideas and beliefs are superior to everyone else's, and it's just plain old tiresome. Be intellectually honest, and when something isn't a fact, don't state it as if it is, and then get defensive when someone calls you on it.

Seems that you and I quoted from the same source.

I think both sides have expressed that they believe their positions are superior. Else, we wouldn't be having such a good discussion. LOL
