I'd argue it's more accurate this way given their messaging

Agnosticnixie posted:To be fair, he has a point. The GOP campaign really poo poo the bed when they nominated Palin of all people and started acting like they were making a victory lap to a third term of Bush. it's not even Palin. she certainly didn't help McCain much, but what really sealed the deal is that the great recession really kicked off only a couple of months before the election. Lehman Bros and AIG collapsed in September 2008, Bush's favorability rating was down into the 20s, the media was predicting the total collapse of the economy, unemployment rates were skyrocketing, and McCain just couldn't distance himself enough from Bush's failures.

Pretty much, Mccain might have had a chance, but after that it was also like trying to run Hoover for a second term on top of everything else.

Gene Hackman Fan posted:that's the thing -- he offered two counters to that: 1) "it was up to the individual, not government." Christians are excellent at finding loopholes to dodge stuff they don't personally agree with. The fact that Jesus told a rich person he was going to hell should be enough but nope, they have to hide behind "the private citizen should donate all their money!" instead of supporting public programs that ensure people don't die on the streets.

OhFunny posted:True. Although I don't see Clinton beating Romney for reelection in 2012. eh reelection speculation is almost more nebulous than normal election, so much of it is based around war chests and general good will combined with a GOTV effort that mainly focuses on 'remember good thing? We remember good thing, vote for MORE GOOD THING'. A lot of very weak people can win re elections even if they're not doing super well.

As a pacifist I officially disavow all violence, even against people who really, really, really deserve it. That my disavowal occasionally takes the form of giggling is a character flaw I have learned to live with.

That doesn't mean I won't laugh at a neo nazi getting sucker punched right as he talks about pepe and looking about to cry before trying to be tough on twitter about how he can 'take a punch', and fully love the person who did it.
