Yep.
Same sort of discussion on the other side with Bernie. Though there, I think both are "qualified". It is more about who the voting/caucusing public prefers vs. the delegates. Weird system, it seems to me, at the primary level.
OMG Politics, I'm over it already.

A stunningly distracted crowd of hundreds of Republicans almost entirely ignored Ted Cruz’s speech at the New York City GOP gala on Thursday night, instead chattering at their dinner tables, standing and taking selfies. Several casually left the dinner altogether.

That’s exactly the response Cruz wanted. He wasn’t reaching out to rich blue bloods in New York. He was burnishing his anti-establishment image by letting those New England RINOS ignore him, because these days the important New York republicans live upstate.

Any self respecting New Englander will tell you that New York is not New England.

Living in denial is never good.
There's a reason it isn't just "York".
Same reason New Jersey and New Hampshire aren't just "Jersey" and "Hampshire".
If anything, you could argue the Connecticut, Vermont etc are NOT "New England". Otherwise, they'd be "New Connecticut" etc.
Logic is an unforgiving bitch.

Historically that might be true, but in politics New England is a region formed by drawing lines on a map that connect New Haven, Cambridge, and New York City.

not to mention Reagan and William F Buckley Jr rolling over in their graves. Reagan's campaign people are the ones who orchestrated bringing the religious right into the party by playing on a couple key issues (which they could have cared less about). I bet he would have regretted that if he was around today (with his mind intact). Remember when Christians backed Jimmy Carter because he was a Christian? Remember the 60s when the Democratic party was still filled with racists? Remember when Robert Dole was promoting health care reform? People should learn about recent US history.

Not true, it hasn't been a secret that large numbers of Democrats like myself voted for Obama in the primaries simply because he's the one that didn't vote for GW's war in Iraq. We got the prize of electing the first black president, but many of us were voting "against" Hilary at that time. And the de-regulation of Wall St started by B. Clinton and followed by GW directly led to the financial collapse of 2007-2008. All the democrats I know have been talking about these 2 issues long before Sanders became a candidate. Bernie is a master of the obvious but looks like a genius because he's going against the masterful propaganda paid for by billionaires.

yea.....i voted for obama for many of the same reasons. to vote against the GW machine, to vote against Billary and to be honest (not racist) but to have the first (seemingly sensible) black man as president. turns out he was a pretty darn good actor during the campaign, also.
