    I don't think Gideon will win, but both Ga. seats are certainly PLAUSIBLE given last night's results. Each Democrat would have a fighting chance.

    I hate extremely cold weather, and I told my wife we could move to Edmonton or Winnipeg for all I cared at this point. Too many people think this garbage is OK and I don’t want to be around them any longer.

    I apologize for some of my posts last night. This dumbass makes me so angry, even more so when I'm drinking.

    It is not my sense that newsrooms don’t want Latino/Latina voices in them.

    It is my sense that many of voices may work in larger markets, and not, for any length of time in smaller/mid-metro markets, which are often told they’re not diverse enough but have a hard time being diverse when they’re faced with losing voices of color to larger markets with frequency.

    Some Democratic candidates say it but no one on the right believes it. It’s not so much the candidates as their supporters.

    Go on Twitter or Facebook and see all of the anti-Trump posts. Republicans or Trump supporters have read these posts for years, with very few of them responding back so as not to be “outed“. Being called racists. Being told they want police to kill black people. Being told they only care about themselves.

    You can’t call half the electorate stupid for years and not expect them to punish you at the next election.

    Even if President Trump is an embarrassment.

    The primaries also worked out to put Biden as the nominee. He was a great quarterback coach in the Senate. He’s never been a good HC. He’s the Norv Turner of politics.

    There’s a reason he didn’t do well in 1988 and 2008.

    I’ll also believe that if Buttigieg was the nominee, Mayor Pete wins by 5+.

    All my amateur hot take aside, I fully expect Biden to win Nevada and that’ll be the difference. Perhaps a warning to the Democrats. Their plan to move further to the left isn’t popular. They’re not Trump. That’s why they have power. And if they want to keep that power, a little restraint is in order.

    If Collins falls below 50, ranked choice voting comes into play.

    Non-Americans are afraid to visit our country. That says a lot about the last four years.

    If it is Biden, he needs to be aggressive. I'm tired of timid Dems
