President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Eighteen Seventy-Q

 

And if Younkin loses, cue the Republicans - starting with Amanda Chase - who will scream that the Democrats have rigged the election. She's already been on right-wing radio shows saying she has proof. The AG has asked her for that proof, but I'm guessing she hasn't provided squat.

 

I have faith in Virginians.

Not it: Democrats dodge blame for stalled agenda as McAuliffe teeters

 

Like clockwork.

 

Is the Democratic Party too woke?

 

There is zero evidence that any Virginians are voting on the issue of a stalled infrastructure bill (why would they, the identity of their Governor has no impact on that issue) but there are always, always anonymous Democratic sources on the Hill ready to bitch about the leftward caucus of their party as the source of all its ills to Politico and the other gossip sheets. It's my guess that if they thought they could get away with it, there are like 10 Representatives and half-a-dozen Dem Senators who love to sink the Biden agenda as it poses inconveniences to their big donors and who're happy to let Manchin, who has the guts to be upfront if nothing else, carry their water. If Youngkin wins, it'll be their excuse for coming out into the open.

 

Shouldn’t this go on the Running Racism thread?

 

Those guys weren’t in danger. The ringleaders knew not to touch them.

 

Oh well

 

VA is to Republicans what OH is to Dems, once a reliable vote for their party, and now part of the Great Realignment.
