hcreight posted:Ken was one of the people she went out of her way to personalize her response for, IIRC. She did, she was like "I'm guessing you're in the industry?" or something similar. Small touch, but definitely one that helped show she wants to connect with people personally. Ken Bone was possibly the only person in the audience to ask something approaching a substantive question, as it actually encompassed numerous factors in energy policy rather than just being some "COAL GOOD? COAL BAD?" idiocy, so that probably clued her in as well. Probably one of those STEM types who is really smart in his field and not so much outside of it, but he's clearly one goony motherfucker, so I can't bring myself to scorn him.

Crowsbeak posted:Wasn't that DWS's strategy in 2014? Yeah, and it worked great. Plus, that was in a case where it wouldn't be interpreted as an attack by the party. Like, to Trump and the Base, anything less than full lockstep support looks like a backstab and Trump is going to lash out.

imho its kinda bad that the groping tape came out just in time to overshadow, say, trump's fanatical desire to lynch several already-exonerated black teens, which was re-entering the public eye but I'm sure the clinton campaign is glad for it, there being more room to gain among white women than among any of the other demographics trump has spewed hate-speech against Night10194 posted:As poo poo as Kaisch is on a lot of things, he has my actual respect for always refusing to get on the Fascism Train. I dunno about courage more a pragmatic "hell, Trump ain't gonna win this thing and we still want to try and exist as a party afterwards. People will want to rally to the people who were voices of reason during this weird time...maybe me?"

Trabisnikof posted:Clinton may get more votes or electoral college votes than Obama, but ran a bad campaign because of unfavorables with whites, why is this so hard to understand? The white man's era of dominance in American politics is quickly coming to an end. This was the last election they had a chance to win as a single bloc. It's over for them. good riddance.

Roland Jones posted:That's enough time to kill gerrymandering, the filibuster, and other things. And once those are out of the way... Wouldn't killing gerrymandering require either a Constitutional amendment or a Supreme Court decision? Supreme Court's probably achievable but I'm not so sure about an amendment.

Of course Kaisch is a piece of poo poo, but I'll have a sliver of respect for a piece of poo poo who is smart or brave enough not to endorse an actual fascist, on that one subject.

Random thought out of nowhere, but where the gently caress is Sarah Palin? I figured she'd be offering her unique bit of word salad to anybody who'd listen right now and I can't remember the last time I've seen her on TV. Maybe that awkward appearance where she endorsed Trump?

Noam Chomsky posted:Super vitriolic reaction to my post as predicted. Maybe if you only watched part of the video, and weren't even sure of what was happening, you should have asked questions rather than authoritatively stating a bunch of poo poo that was obviously wrong to literally every other human being who used their senses of hearing and sight on the video? That seems like a better approach going forward.
