My point is that 'comedy gold' lies in the shenani

Speaking of data bases, that's another problem for the GOP.
Obama's 'digital trove' of voters and his 'ground game', compiled over two election cycles, are now Hillary's to deploy.
The far left is what it is. Two things it's not? It's not the home to the poorly educated or to the racially, religiously and gender bigoted.
I do know that the Dems are closer to the center than is the Tea Party driven GOP. Two elections established that fact.
And I know that Republicans are decidedly less popular than are the Dems, far lefties and all!
I'm curious though, Do you claim to know what the GOP is?

In a Bloomberg poll released on Wednesday, the Republican Party's favorability rating hit a new low.

Just 32% of Americans viewed the GOP favorably — the lowest that rating has been since the poll's inception in 2009.
The Democratic Party's favorability rating was notably higher, at 49%.
Pollster J. Ann Selzer linked the low GOP rating to Donald Trump, the party's presumptive nominee for president.
"This is obviously related to perceptions of Trump," Selzer told Bloomberg. "This bleeds out into perceptions of the party and to other GOP politicians."
While nearly 33% of Republicans said that they viewed Trump unfavorably, only 17% of Democrats had an unfavorable view of Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.
Negative feelings about the GOP are also increasingly coming from within the party's own membership. In December 2014, 9% of Republicans viewed the party unfavorably. That number has now climbed to 28%.
But Trump still has significant support from party members. The Bloomberg poll found that 69% of likely Republican voters think that Trump will be good for the party.
Bloomberg's poll was conducted Friday through Monday. It had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1%.
Another Bloomberg poll released on Tuesday showed Trump trailing Clinton by a whopping 12 points in a general-election matchup.
And an overwhelming 55% of total respondents said that they could never support Trump. In comparison, 43% of those polled said that they could never support Clinton.
The Bloomberg poll was the third such survey this week to show Clinton with a commanding lead.
