    I mean… whatever. These throwaway armchair John Madden style articles where the premise is basically “Now what Nikki Hayley needs to do to win this election, is get more votes than the other guy” are a complete distraction, and jesus christ, are they fucking everywhere.

    It seems like every 20 minutes one of these, effectively dishrag, tier articles is written, which is mostly just banal color commentary about the drapes. Journalists really do need to engage their critical thinking skills, and maybe slow down the pace a bit.
