I love it! Now Biden is talking about getting in the race like that would improve the quality of the candidates.

Yeah, Joe Biden!

I don't know which is worse, Biden's hair implants or his plagiarism.

This isn't good news a'tall for the Dark Side, is it??

I mean whatwith the NYSlimes having been recently (albeit temporarily) detoothed spinning this bulging blackeye into a four leaf clover will be all the more difficult, huh Mom? {g}

Well, that's just the way the cake breaks.
Can't win 'em all.
That's the way of it; sometimes.
Better Liberal-Socialist luck, tomorrow.

Yes, they are. The only states that are not winner-take-all in the Electoral College are Maine and Nebraska.

However, I imagine you were really asking whether they are winner-take-all for choosing delegates to the Democratic convention. I'm afraid I don't know the answer to that one.
