I'm glad you give satellites credence. I posted an explanation on cause-and-effect of El Nino and the expression of heat. Heat is being expressed into the atmosphere and dissipating. CO2 has nothing to do with it.

Yes, Feb & Mar were warmest respective months on satellite record for global temperature. Remember, satellites also point out that 2014 and 2015 were not the warmest years on the satellite record, so satellites records expose NOAA and NASA's purported surface records. Why? Satellites can measure the entire troposphere. Even NOAA shows plots that warming is greatest at the surface, and the trend in the mid- to upper-troposphere is nearly negligible, which is completely against the concept man-made global warming.

Here's the plot and link from NOAA. TUT = temperature of upper troposphere, and TMT is temperature of middle troposphere. As I always have said, there has been warming from 1978. However, comparing the mid- and upper-troposphere to the fabricated surface records, NASA & NOAA are creating 10-fold trends. That's alarmist fraud.

And when you're committing fraud, you have to be careful of what you say, such as admitting the troposphere is supposed to warm faster than the surface. Do you think Gavin responded? LOL! He usually blocks and deletes these tweets, so you have to be fast with screen shots.

51% of Democrats Oppose Their Party’s Superdelegate System

The presidential primary process to choose the Democratic nominee includes the use of superdelegates, individuals selected by the party who can support any candidate at the party's convention regardless of who wins their state's popular vote. But just over half of Democrats cry foul at the system.

Only 30% of Likely Democratic Voters favor the use of superdelegates in the presidential primary process, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. Fifty-one percent (51%) are opposed, while a sizable 19% are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Among all voters, just 19% support the superdelegate system, while 65% are opposed. Sixteen percent (16%) are not sure.

The Democratic National Committee’s decision to use superdelegates, many of whom are current and past elected officials, has come under considerable scrutiny - particularly from supporters of Bernie Sanders - for the appearance that the party is trying to rig the election for establishment candidate Hillary Clinton. DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz has done little to assuage these concerns, saying in one CNN interview that the superdelegates “exist really to make sure that party leaders and elected officials don’t have to be in a position where they are running against grassroots activists.”

Interestingly, voters under 40, perhaps the biggest voting bloc for Sanders, are more supportive of the superdelegate system than their elders. Twenty-four percent (24%) of these voters support the use of superdelegates, compared to 16% of middle-aged voters and 20% of senior citizens. But these younger voters are also the most likely to be undecided about the party's current superdelegate system.

The survey of 1,000 Likely U.S. Voters was conducted on March 30-31, 2016 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.

Democrats are more certain than ever that Hillary Clinton will be their party’s presidential nominee this November.

Seventy-five percent (75%) of Republicans and 71% of voters not affiliated with either major political party oppose the use of superdelegates in the presidential primary process. But superdelegates may be just the solution for Republican party leaders who have a Trump problem.

Thirty percent (30%) of self-described politically liberal voters favor the superdelegate process, compared to 21% of moderates and 12% of conservatives.

Sixty-four percent (64%) of Democrats think their elected leaders in Congress are doing a good job representing their party’s values, while only 30% say their representatives have lost touch with the party’s base. By comparison, 76% of GOP voters think their lawmakers are out of touch.

Only 41% of all voters now think American elections are fair.

Most voters have said for years that member of Congress almost always get reelected because the election rules are rigged to benefit incumbents, not because they do a good job representing their constituents.

At the same time, 55% think the United States is more democratic than most other nations.

In the 'sizzling' northlands during the hottest year in history, sportswriters want more opening day baseball games in southern cities. It's not sizzling enough.

Speaking of sizzling, Ithaca's previous coldest temperature ever for all of April was 11F in 1982. That's now been broken (along with daily record low). I'm sure others wish for that 81F record high in 1928.
