ocean pulls me close and whispers in my ear,
the destiny i've chose all becoming clear,
the currents have their say, the time is drawing near
washes me away,
makes me disappear,
and i descend from grace
in arms of undertow,
i will take my place
in the great below

i can still feel blue,
even so far away

i can still vote blue,
even so far away

I like this, the GOP is not going to learn anything from this cycle and will carry on with Trumpism.

JORDAN: I disagree. I was at a Trump event just last week. You saw all kinds of folks there — African-Americans, Hispanics-Americans, 8,000 people crammed into this fairground arena.

So let me know if this is accurate (I've been following the Senate races less than the Presidential). Senate-wise:

We need 4 of these 8, out of which 7 are currently held by Republicans: Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Indiana, New Hampshire, Missouri, North Carolina, Florida

Polling-wise, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania look pretty good to flip, maybe 75% chance if you look at the average across all the aggregators, and EV means Nevada is likely to stay Dem.

So that leaves us needing to flip one of:

Indiana
New Hampshire
Missouri
North Carolina
Florida

Of those 5, how likely do you guys think we are to flip one? And which one is probably closest?

Also, my take on the whole Comey situation:
I think, looking back and having cooled a bit, he was in a rock and a hard place. On one hand, he did feel obligated to inform congress "Hey, we found something" and to get ahead of any leaks, which undoubtedly would be worse. The problem was the letter he sent. Vague, reeking of partisanship, and doing more harm than good. His news conference in the summer also didn't help.

So tl;dr: by the letter of the law, you could argue he violated the Hatch Act. By the spirit? Not as strong of a case there if you ask me.

So Donald is just hallucinating fake accolades now, huh?

Probs my last Trump QUOTE OF THE DAY before the election, unless it gets too crazy, Time of Your Life edition:

quote:

Donald Trump frequently boasts of his hotels and golf resorts, and it's true that they have won awards. The American Academy of Hospitality Sciences has given Trump at least 19 Diamond awards, which it calls "the most prestigious emblem of achievement and true quality in the world today," for his various properties, according to journalist David Cay Johnston in his book The Making of Donald Trump. It also gave his golf course in Aberdeen, Scotland, a prize as "the best golf course worldwide."

All of which sounds impressive. Except that the board of the Academy consisted mostly of Trump's employees, friends, and family members.

"A majority of the trustees bestowing these awards on Trump and his properties were Trump's employees, friends, or retainers," Johnston writes. Two of his sons, Donald Jr. and Eric, served on the board of trustees, according to the Associated Press. Trump's former butler of 17 years, the subject of a Mother Jones story earlier this year for calling on Facebook for President Barack Obama to be "hung for treason," was also a trustee. Trump himself served on the board and was listed as the Academy's "ambassador extraordinaire."

The president of the Academy, Joseph Cinque (a.k.a. Joey No Socks), is a convicted felon with alleged ties to organized crime.

In May, Trump denied having any connection to the organization in an interview with Yahoo News, saying, "I mean, I receive awards from different places sometimes, but I'm not involved in it. How am I involved in it?"

http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/10/trump-files-hospitality-awards

Also, after bankrupting it

quote:

I don't even think about the USFL anymore," Trump said. "It was a nice experience, it was fun, we had a great lawsuit"

The damages award from the NFL, a check for $3.76. (The seventy six cents was interest).

An explanation of the only thing Trump could ever be said to be good at

Wrestlemania writer posted:

Trump's success with Wrestlemania's audience, Bauer said, was propelled by his ability to speak the language of an average American while evoking vast wealth: "What Donald stands for is aspirational, and that's what it is for wrestling fans....Donald talks blue collar but he has the world. He's been selling people on that dream for a long time."
