QuoProQuid posted:It is probably ideal to differentiate between favorability and voter preference. While Bernie increased his favorability, a good portion of that is probably from Clinton supporters over his email comment who have no interest in defection. True, but there is more to it than the horse race. Obama had establishment backing from Senator Ted Kennedy, which allowed him to be a credible threat to Clinton, for example. A popular Senator with a national audience has a lot of influence that can be put behind future candidates.

Captain America has been black for a while, but he has a new enemy. Fox and Friends.quote:“The [Supreme Serpent] is an American who has misgivings about unlimited illegal immigration and the costs associated with it,” Carlson said. “And that, according to the comic book, is evil.”

quote:“Right, so these serpents are stopping people from coming over the border and Captain America is saying, ‘That’s not going to happen on my watch, I’m Captain America,'” Morris agreed. “An interesting discussion around the idea of [immigrants bringing] disease and rapists and everything else.” Yes, it is interesting to discuss the fact that you are a racist who sees immigrants as diseased rapists and not human beings. How could Captain America possibly have a problem with racists?

In Virginia we recently had a Blue Dog quit his seat in order to allow the Republicans control in exchange for his daughter's judicial spot and I assume some other kickbacks. Blue Dogs are a cancer and I'm glad the Tea Party ate them.

Isn't it the case that gerrymandering is a significant barrier to winning state-level offices even if the Democrats wanted to? Also, I'd question the utility of having more Democrats win downticket races if they're just there to fill the seat with a D.

I'm a goony nerd and I don't break my weak nerd bones punching walls.(I'm also not rich so my walls aren't diamond/gold) Yeah, you're a lot more likely to break a finger or two before you break your wrist. But the guy's a big namby-pamby who's spent his entire life in a bubble and doesn't realize that, unlike in the movies and on the crime scene dramas, punching actually kinda hurts your hand. fool_of_sound posted:So is this guy legitimately mentally ill, or just really retarded? He's lived in a rich bubble of his friends for the entirety of his life until now, never having to really interact with the real world unless he wants to (which he obviously doesn't). So, yes in a fashion to both counts. haveblue posted:Plus the bad luck that this time a media firestorm happened. The low-demand drug trick is apparently a common thing, it's not even the first time this guy specifically has done it. Apparently he did this at a previous company which kicked him out and fined him for doing exactly this, and he's using money from this current company/scam to pay off the fine from the previous bullshit.

(Hint: DWS isn't investing in running Blue Dogs in state legislature races) This is rather interesting, but in an environment in which not even non-crazy Republicans have a chance, I'm not sure how "like a Republican but branded as the Marxist-Satanist Party to Republican voters" is going to solve anything. Matt Yglesias is usually a good look into how Democratic neoliberals think, though. So it's not a shock that his thinking resembles that of Canada's NDP and Liberal Parties- unable to imagine left-wing economic policy as appealing to the electorate.
