Aight den, let's get right into it. Lotsa ppl claiming political "aqoon" with too much baqbaqleyn. Even my good friend Shirib('nuff respek on his magac) tried to play the political pundit and claimed, during the Repub primaries, that Ben Carson would fade away after he made Islamaphobic comments last fall. I tried, in vain, to explain to him that in a Republican primary, being Islamaphobic is a political plus. Shirib be like: "Nah, he's gonna exit the race in by November". I be like: "Will you admit that you were wrong if he stays in past November". Shirib be like: "Yes, and likewise for your". Khalaas, I be like, "it's a bet". Even after repeated nudging, I'm still waiting on Shirib to come clean and admit his lack-of-knowledge when it comes to politics.
All I'm saying is, ppl shouldn't wear clothes that don't fit them, mmkay. Yacni, if all you know about politics & political elections is what you watch on CNN or read on Alex-Jones, then just leave the punditry & election forecasting to experts who eat this stuff for breakfast. Example: my lil homie FAH, he know what up. And since I got respek for his cilm siyaasi, I'm challenging him on this here prediction thread to see who is the greatest politics boss-man on SNet: Leftist or Fah. The rest of you are free to join and make your own predictions, but you will be held accountable if your predictions turn out weak.
Preliminary punditry(just to get it off my chest):
It was never in question that Hilary would not only beat Trump, but virtually any Republican who ran for prez this cycle with one exception: the homie J.Kay(John Kasich). Even with the built-in blue-state electoral college advantage, J.Kay(with running mate Rubio) could very easily win by a) grabbing Ohio & Florida b) flipping Michigan & Pennsylvania(he was born & raised there) and other industrial states c) ramping up his folksy, bipartisan, moderate image, thereby winning independents by a landslide. His coalition would be comprised of mainly cadaan beoble(all ages, all demographics, except possibly with young white women) + independents/undecideds/antiHillary's + sufficient number of asians/blacks/hispanics, with better percentage than Bush '04. Game Over. But nobody else currently running could beat Hilary. Not Walker/Rubio(too young & inexperienced, which would show in the debates), not Trump/Carson/Huckabee(too crazy and/or too Christin), nor Bush/Christie(Bush legacy & Bridgegate). Not to say that it wouldn't be close with some of the more talented candidates(Rubio), but still, Hilary would win.
But we not tam'bout J.Kay or Marco Polo; we tam'bout Triflin' "check out her sex-tape" Trump. The only reason this won't be a landslide win for Ayeeyo Hilary is due to the 2 decade-long witch-hunt she(and her husband) have been subjected to by Republicans. As a result, she became excessively cautious which created a public perception of secretive insularity, and all that $$$ she made created a perception of corruption. Truth is tho, she is no more corrupt nor greedy than the average DC pol; They(ie, the rabid rightwing) failed, miserably, to bring the Clintons down in the 90's, so they launched a multi-million $$ assault on hier, and she be skating free, defeating them at every play: First Lady --> Senator --> Secretary of State --> Jefe-Comandante Los Estados Unidos. Ironically, the rabid, hate-filled, special prosecutor, Kenneth Star, tasked to bring them down, ignored a series of rapes by football players at Baylor U where he's president, and he had to resign(mac sonkor) as a result of the outrage.
Rules:
Presidential race: the closest Electoral prediction to the actual result wins
Senate races(New Hampshire, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Florida, Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois): there are competitive senate races in those states, so the person who predicts the outcome(ie, sentators have to be named as winning or losing) closest to the actual result wins.
Tiebreaker: In the event of a tie(ie, prez & Senate race), beesha Snet will act as a tiebreaker voting in who they think is the undisputed political aqoonyahan.
Deadline for predictions: Monday, October 3rd, at midnight.
If I win, it will be a victory for the Reformation, and the losers will be forced to accept it's validity & righteousness.
Leftist throwing down the gauntlet....... who's in?

True, many Ohioans felt the Governer of our Great State (R) John Kasich is a good moderate man, with a Vision. He would of made a Great President.
In the Preaident Election, Hillary Wins and Defeats trump, by over 300 electoral votes.
Ohio senate race (R) Rob Portman (a trump supporter) looses to Former Governer (D) Ted Strickland.
