      But McMullin came in second. I am going to try to feel good about that.
      Ha! Choke on this, AppleJack. #silverlining

        Of course Utah voted more Republican in 2012 than they did in 2016. As a great band once said, "How much more black can it be? The answer is none more black."

          Ha.

          Also, for the record, I never predicted that Trump would lose Utah. I expressed a wish that he did and took some joy in reports that he was struggling in the state, but I don't recall ever predicting that he would not get the state's delegates.

            Problem is, this President-elect's amp doesn't go to to 11.

              I'm done with apologies. I want a ban of all posters who made terrible predictions.
              Terrible Predictions might be a good name for a band.
              PLesa excuse the tpyos.

                Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                  Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                        Yes. I have been corrected 4-5 times now.

                          Sure. But if Trump can push through his radical anti-trade agenda it would be a severe immediate shock to the economy that almost no one wouldn't be hurt by to some degree.

                              1. For Jeff Lewbowski: he warned us that it was close and he was right. MBN and Moliere should be banned for their terrible conduct.
                              2. For byu71's work buddies: they were right all along.
                              3. For my adopted home, DC: overwhelming Hillary support (94%!) AND a vote for statehood all in one night? Kudos to me. Now let's hope Congress brings statehood to the floor.
                              4. To YOhio, Goatnapper, CMBF, etc: the streak is intact! Can you pretty please call the Utah/BYU '17 game right now? I need some assurance that everything is going to be OK.
