Motor City Sonics Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 I hope there is really really good security for the clerks in Arizona and Nevada. I am worry something bad is going to happen, especially in Maricopa. There were some really creepy things going on leading up to Tuesday.

Motor City Sonics Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Did anyone see where some jackass in Wisconsin pulled a knife out at a library voting precinct? He wanted to stop the voting -- and it did get stopped for 30 minutes. There were kids there with their parents too. He had previously just been arrested for posting racist and threatening flyers around West Bend, WI that threatened Democratic candidates. Wow, quite a surprise there.

Motown Bombers Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Just a reminder Gary Peters is chair of the DSCC and Democrats are actually poised to gain a senate seat this term and over performed in most races.

Motown Bombers Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 In some ways, I kind of want the Republicans to have a 2-3 seat majority because it is going to be a complete clown show. With an only 2-3 seat advantage, I don't think they would have enough votes for impeachment or sham investigations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motown Bombers Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 One thing I've been thinking about, if polls were off on Democratic support, doesn't stand to reason they are off on Biden's approval rating? I just don't think he is as unpopular as people make him out to be. We are seeing the flag waving mouth breathers are loud but a minority that get outsized attention. A lot of polls also list soft support such as somewhat approve as disapproving. I don't know that he has the kind of hatred against as Trump does.

A lot of polls also list soft support such as somewhat approve as disapproving. I don't know that he has the kind of hatred against as Trump does. I wouldn't doubt this is true but I think it has as much to do with the current Zeitgeist. The culture celebrates a sort of faux discontent attitude today - and there is nothing intrinsically wrong with that. It's no better or worse than the Gary Cooper never say anything bothers you attitude of the 1930's but it is different. So I think when you ask a superficial question like the President's approval, you are just more likey to get a snap 'it's horrible!' kind of response, because that's our social skew for everything today. But when someone goes into to cast a vote, that is not the controlling logic. So I would put as just another case like the change in phone tech and usage, where the cultural assumptions that have underlain the polling industry are shifting under their feet. Just because you are asking the same question that you did 40 yrs ago doesn't mean the question signifies the same meaning to the listener.

I had a fever dream last night that a moderate Republican threw his/ her hat into the Speaker ring (of fire) with the stated position that they are rejecting the Freedom Caucus and looking for moderate Dems to align with... And I didn't even partake of any of MCS's edibles last night either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a perfect world a middle majority of folks from both parties could coalesce and elect an outside non-partisan speaker - the Speaker need not be a member of the House, (maybe a retired Federal judge for instance..), but I'd rate the chances of that too close to zero to worry about.

Its more about A - Abortion rights and B - Keeping the kooks out than it was about Biden. Biden rarely makes it about Biden and it works for him.
