I wouldn't vote for Bernie because he couldn't get Congress to do ANYTHING.

you mean like now?

If Bernie were to win, it would be because people are thoroughly fed up with what we have now

..in other words, he would have the coat tails to bring substantial changes

..the Senate is already a lock for the dems

..assuming some effective communication, except for the lost causes in the south, look for wholesale changes in the House in the rest of the country

..the Tea Party and NRA lads are going to be booted..

..people are fed up with their shit...and they will not have racist cover in 2016

Everyone ("the media") is patiently waiting for Trump to self-destruct. But he has become noticeably better at politics over the last couple months. He is staying on-message and doing a pretty good job of avoiding the gotcha questions. He may yet self-destruct but one poll has him at 32% right now after what looked like some pretty serious blunders early on.

There is a strong possibility he'll be the nominee, imo. And at least a 50/50 shot he'll be the next president. Biden is not as strong a candidate, even with Warren as VP, as Hillary should have been. Given Hillary's hiding in a cave, it looks like Biden is going to replace her in the primary.

Who knows. But this looks like no election I've seen in many years.
