    In further news, college educated white people typically make up about a third of the electorate and have gone for the Republican candidate in every election since 1952. Going into the RNC the two candidates were tied with this demographic 40-40. Ironically, after the RNC Clinton has taken a 5 point lead 44-39. Romney won this demographic by 14 points in 2012.

    No, not really. 2.13% wouldn't even eclipse the margin of error so no....not really. But I'll tell you what....if it brings you comfort, I'll say it does.

    Mathematically impossible would mean zero In that there are no was for trump to win. Which you know there are.

    You don't have to say it. Like you pointed out. It's math.

    In my mind it is 0% or I wouldn't have made the statement to begin with....and I stand by it.

    Lots of things can be in your mind. Like Jenner for example. He thinks she's a chick.

    He's still a dude tho.

    Pissed off white people. When you arrogantly say that a Trump win is a "mathematical impossibility" did you say the say thing about a group of young college boys in 1980 who faced the mighty team of seasoned Soviet Union pros in the hockey game?

    I was 7 then so, no, I had no opinion one way or another about it. Calling Trump's candidacy mathematically impossible isn't an attempt to be arrogant at all. I would say the same if it were Ted Cruz or any other Republican candidate. Because Republicans have alienated so many voting blocs and with demographic changes it is very hard, if not impossible, for a Republican candidate to win the Presidency. Until Republicans can appeal to other demographics than white people they will continue to be doomed in Presidential elections.
