Re: The Neverending Thread for Political Shit
A very, very good question, posed by Thomas Edsall in his 12/7/22 column in the NYT: "Which gets to the larger question that supersedes all the ins and outs of the maneuvering over the Republican presidential nomination and the future of the party: How, in a matter of less than a decade, could this...

Re: The Neverending Thread for Political Shit
BTW...the senatatorial picture looks really rough for Dems in 2024. I believe they are defending in Montana, Wisconsin, Ohio, West Virginia, maybe a couple more tough spots. We'll always have California. Whether we have forty-one seats in the Senate or not. Sometimes I think we should just split th...

Re: The Neverending Thread for Political Shit
The January 6 mob had one thing - and only one thing - right: our sclerotic Federal system will never change unless it is burned to the ground and rebuilt. They just don't realize that the aftermath will be damn ugly for everyone except those holding the reins.

Finished "The Terror" last night. Kind of disappointing after reading the book. It did not even come close to depicting the dark and cold and despair portrayed by the author

Re: The Neverending Thread for Political Shit
You could very easily make the opposing argument here. Truss would never have won an actual general election. She was always an absurd choice. But she became leader of her party and therefore leader of her country anyway. Whatever the limitations of the US system, a President can legitimately claim...
