Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumKind of embarrassed to have to do this but...
I am not of the computer generation and I do not know how to put up links to good articles/websites. (This may be what it takes for me to finally have someone show me how!) Maybe one of my fellow Hillary fans will do it for me this time. If you google "daily news bin by bill palmer", it will take you to a site with articles by this fellow Bill Palmer. One is about the chaos the BSers caused at the Nevada convention and the other is about the upcoming primaries in Kentucky and Oregon. I know the writer, Bill Palmer, doesn't have a crystal ball, but I sure felt more optimistic about things after reading his take on things. Hillary 2016

(6,444 posts)Kentucky: There are few things trickier than handicapping a state in which no polling has been conducted at all. That reduces the forecast to a matter of voting demographics and voting format. The state is 86% white and 14% minorities, a breakdown which doesnt give a clear advantage to either candidate. The format, a closed primary in which only democrats can vote in the democratic contest, has definitively favored Hillary Clinton thus far in this race.
That may be why shes now spending money in Kentucky, though merely six figures and not millions. But with the nomination already inevitable, she wouldnt be spending money in the state at all unless she believes that itll lead to a likely victory (she spent virtually nothing in the open primary states of Indiana and West Virginia, preferring to save her money for the general election instead of investing in what would have been format-induced losses anyway).
Campaigns see far more detailed internal polling than voters or journalists get to see, so Hillarys decision to spend money in Kentucky is a sign that she has data telling her that she can win. Accordingly I expect her to win the state, though the iffy demographics suggest itll be close.
Oregon: Heres another conundrum.

(14,532 posts)place your cursor over the web page address. right cick and it should turn blue. right click again, while cursor is still over the link. A popup box should appear, choose copy.
In the text box here right click again. a popup box should appear, select paste.
run
an alternate way. Place your cursor at the beginning of the text or link you want to copy. highlight it by running your cursor over it.
hit at the same time your control and the letter C.
now put your cursor in the text box where you want the text or link to appear and hit control and V at the same time. If you did it right the text should appear.

(83,771 posts)I am not the best one to explain. However, when you are on a link you want copy go to the very top of the page and left click on the site address then right click to copy. Then come here and right click in your Op. Voila, it appears.

(11,330 posts)skylucy, are you using a computer?
if so...near the top of the screen is the "address of the page"
sweep your mouse from right to left to highlight the address
while its highlighted hold down CNTL and C at the same time
move your mouse to your post...where you want the link copied
press CNTL and V at the same time to paste the information you copied.
if you are on an apple computer use
COMMAND and C to copy
COMMAND and V to paste
Hope this helps
