though he [Bill Clinton] displayed frustration at Sanders’ success with young voters.

Seeing as how Americans under the age of 29 have a more positive image of socialism than of capitalism,* Team Clinton can either speak to their concerns, or expect them to continue to gravitate towards Sanders.

They the U30's have no idea what socialism really means. Many of their parents know better.

Trump faces the worst rating and historically anti-women attacks. This is the GOP Shia-Tea President.

Their parents likely do. Times when employees were valued over shareholders and lifetime employment was normal. Healthcare and pensions were provided by the company - or, if not, by the Federal Government, with no anxiety that the programs would be terminated by the time they reached retirement. Oh yes, that was socialism.

Really, the most magnificent remaining example of those bygone years of American socialism remaining in America is the Pentagon.

The older i get the more stupid these things appear, like it will make any difference who gets in, like Mark Twain said "if voting made any difference they wouldnt let is do it". Sad but true imo.

@Laguna,

You are still talking about capitalism.

If you want big government to babysit you then you might like socialism. Life long employment isn`t a guarantee.

@kcjapan,

Hes totally for women. Its alright to bash Trump but people can`t take it when he dishes it. I thought wanted equality...

Positive?? More like completely ignorant, lazy and blinded.

Team Clinton can either speak to their concerns, or expect them to continue to gravitate towards Sanders.

And he'll lose in the general election.

Of course - and so is Bernie. There are no incompatabilities between socialism and capitalism; it is all a matter of degree.

The older generation may remember 70% tax rates on the rich under that infamous screaming Trotskite Richard Nixon. They may even remember the Maoist proponent of gun control Ronald Reagan. They may even recall the lesser known Fidel Castro clone Bob Dole and his ideas about healthcare.

It's the rightist crackpots with no sense of historical perspective who are ignorant.

An impulsive, 13-year-old brat inhabiting the body of a paunchy, greedy, 69-year-old who promises to torture...and this is the person who is headed for a win in NH. Thanks, GOP! We can tell you really love this country.

Really? Then why does Canada do so well?

1) That depends on who you ask. I have a lot of friends in Canada and yes, mostly conservative and they would disagree that Canada is anything is far from doing well.

2) Again, who cares? Canada (thankfully is not the US) we don't want to be anything like them and if Canada is so great (been there more times than I could count) then why so many of them come to the US?

I like Canada, but they can keep it.

The older generation may remember 70% tax rates on the rich under that infamous screaming Trotskite Richard Nixon.

Who said that Nixon was a true fiscal conservative?

They may even remember the Maoist proponent of gun control Ronald Reagan. They may even recall the lesser known Fidel Castro clone Bob Dole and his ideas about healthcare.

But he never meant to have it nationalized and the government to overtake it the way Obama has been doing it. The good thing is once Obama is gone and we can finally get rid of it or gut it and take all unnecessary provisions out of it.

It's the rightist crackpots with no sense of historical perspective who are ignorant.

No, that would be the left, because if they did, they would know that the US became a great nation because people had dreams and desires to live in a country with limited government, less taxation and the mindset, ability and fortitude to choose your own destiny. No, we have a society of leeches that think the government is there to feed and put clothes on your back from cradle to grave. Again, go to California and see what a financial mess the once great state with one of the largest economies in the world has become the brunt of jokes and slowly turning into a 3rd world state.

The right was saying the same thing about Obama, but the difference is, Obama would rather give everything away, put up a white flag and announce to take it up the.....to anyone, including his own soul, if that means he could walk away from a war.

But the US keeps getting hidings in unwinnable wars. The last two were debacles. The US military has had more spankings than a UK Conservative MP.

I know life is cheap to those on the right but it isn't for everyone.

(Heh) Back in '90-'91, I'd rack that up as a big "W" when Saddam's troops were surrendering left n' right in the desert. Baghdad was lit-up like a X-mas tree. The Military Victorty was clear and decisive, though Saddam remained in Power.

@Wc626

I didn't say all of them. I suppose the law of averages mean you'll win one somewhere along the line.

I'll give the rightists this, they're optimistic. Unfortunately, the stacks of corpses are a heavy price to pay.

And just look at Iraq now.

That's too funny.

People can't take Trump's brand of racism.

People can't take Trump's brand of prejudice.

Those people!

They are always crying about Trump's dishing out racism and prejudice. What is wrong with those people?

Alls Trump is asking for is torture and prejudice.

Little things Americans should embrace because Trump says they should. Is that circular logic?

@kcjapan,

What racism and prejudice? elaborate without the wiseguy remarks. Need some specifics. Being called these days is like a default setting.

A good analysis of what is at stake from

http://www.electoral-vote.com/evp2016/Pres/Maps/Feb09.html#item-1

Conclusion:

The upshot here is that New Hampshire could well have a major long-term impact on the GOP race by validating Trump and elevating Kasich and/or one of the other governors, while possibly initiating the decline and fall of Rubio and/or Cruz. Short-term, however, it may not do much, as all the candidates are either doing too well to give up over one state (Trump/Cruz/Rubio), or are likely to get a bounce on Tuesday (Kasich/Bush/Christie), or are living in la-la land (Carson/Fiorina).

Trump is no more racist or prejudice than average posters here on JT. he says controvercial comments and the left jumps on the bandwagon and inflates their derived interpretation.

Enter the USA legally is not racist. He does delivery it roughly but he is simply saying the same thing. With the Muslim immigrants, read or find a video of what he said. Edited is your liberal media helping you decide for you.

When your party is racist I suppose Trump just seems like a regular guy.

"Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said there was “a special place in hell” for women who don’t help women"

To all women voters: If you don't vote for Hillary Clinton, you're going to hell. LOL

This coming from the party that voted twice for a president that has been the biggest racial divider since the 60's!

But taking Obama's is perfectly Ok?

I ask myself the same thing.

More like wanting to do serious damage, protect the country and use every necessary tool to do that, sounds good to me.

I don't think Trump's logic is different from Obama's logic or lack of......

I'll give the rightists this, they're optimistic.

Compared to the Lefts pessimism.

Unfortunately, the stacks of corpses are a heavy price to pay.

Look deeply into the parties. Then answer which party is oppressive and racist. I'll give a hint it begins with D.
