Kurt Busiek gloats about perceived weakness of GOP

There are more Americans today supporting Bernie Sanders for President than support any single GOP nominee. And he doesn’t stand a chance.
— Kurt Busiek (@KurtBusiek) May 31, 2015Yes, that’s statistics-manipulation. But it amused me anyway.
— Kurt Busiek (@KurtBusiek) May 31, 2015@filmpunk86 I wouldn’t say locked, because that suggests she doesn’t need to campaign. But I think she’ll win the nomination handily.
— Kurt Busiek (@KurtBusiek) June 1, 2015According to a recent poll, Sanders has 15% support among Democrats. GOP candidates hover around 10% of Republican support, or less.
— Kurt Busiek (@KurtBusiek) May 31, 2015And there are more self-identified Dems than GOP members, so...
— Kurt Busiek (@KurtBusiek) May 31, 2015Yes, yes, numbers wonkery due to the crowded GOP field. But it’s true. Meaningless, but true!
— Kurt Busiek (@KurtBusiek) June 1, 2015If it's meaningless, how can it be true? Only to a sneering liberal. I wonder how Busiek feels about Hilary and her scandals? The news about conduct during Benghazi doesn't inspire confidence she's qualified for a presidential role. The Washington Post, one of the most leftist papers you can find, reported that Clinton's poll numbers are falling among Democrats. So I wouldn't recommend expecting her to win a party nomination that easily.
He also wrote the following two about One Million Moms:
11,800 people have signed the One Million Moms petition against the TV version of LUCIFER. That’s less than 1.2% of The Moms!
— Kurt Busiek (@KurtBusiek) June 1, 2015Clearly, 98% of The Moms are down with the show. That’s simple math!
— Kurt Busiek (@KurtBusiek) June 1, 2015Well gee, what if they're not all that well known a movement? Wouldn't that explain why it doesn't have that many signups? I won't say I think One Million Moms are perfect, but it's not good if he's insulting parental values. The reason they're objecting to Lucifer is because it portrays the devil as a good guy, and mocks the bible. And there's jarring violence in the new TV program to boot. It sure doesn't sound like anything I'd care to tune into, and I don't find the idea of depicting baddies as goodies appealing. That it's based on Neil Gaiman's variations from the Sandman doesn't make it any better. (I do have to wonder though if the early protestors of Gaiman's biased depictions of LGBT lifestyles ever took offense at some of the graphic violence that was seen in some parts of the run, like the first few issues, where Doctor Destiny mind-controlled a handful of people at a restaurant into finally slaughtering themselves. If there were no objections to those alarming elements, that's where I'll admit the misgivings didn't seem altruistic.)
