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.

Care to point me to a reliable source of info on that page???

I found a quote on hillary-clinton-nude.com. Will that work?

Most of those pages on the first link above are blogs. Nothing that indicates reliability.

No wonder you post like you do.
Correction. I did find a reporter from the NYT quoted yesterday. He uses one of those words that you excuse as him, although being positive about the facts, knowing that others will disagree. Here's his quote:

Quote:
Now, she’s probably down to a 5 percent chance.
Probably? Oh, I know he only used that because he knows that people will disagree........

Yeah, right.

No facts involved. None. Not one poll. Just an article written by a reporter.

The latest news I posted above came this morning with polls being done.

who are you calling You guys? Dude, I dont think Hillary really has much of a chance outside of what one unnamed dem said, that she would have to go with the "Tony Harding" option.

Even if she does win the nomination, the harm to the party will be irreparible.

I think Obama wins the nomination and I still say he has at least a 70% chance of winning.

The only way the dems can loose this election is if they shoot themselves. there is no reason for the republicans to win.

This has been my position from day 1.

But I can still hope!

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