Schnorkles posted:winning elections these days is more about activating partisans than convincing the other side that you're right. the question isn't if they get kicked in the balls and then decide to pull the lever for democrats, its do they actually go vote or just get disheartened. point being is that regardless of what their party does to them, Republicans continue to pull the GOP lever, especially at the state/local level. The GOP could gently caress them 10 times over and they'd still pull the lever. You're right that elections now are more or less about energizing the base to go out and vote but having the GOP in power of everything and loving it all up won't flip any GOP voters to the D side.

loquacius posted:Question, is this lady Actually Good or is she just Better Than Chaffetz? That link is 100% boilerplate She posted an explanation for why she's running against Chaffetz on DailyKos of all places, so I think she's pretty lefterino: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2017/3/2/1639685/-Why-I-am-running-against-Chaffetz-for-Utah-s-3rd-CD Her big thing seems to be she wants to help put an end to gerrymandering. I would love a constitutional amendment that deals with statehood, what it means, and how districts must be apportioned. I mean, I would have loved it back in 1795 when it was necessary, but I'll take a simple federal law mandating independent commissions for redistricting.

octobernight posted:The HUD is getting their budget cut by a lot, so as a result one of the largest areas in NYC (serves 400K people) does not know how it will house their poor folks. GOP plan working as intended. Also, Red states that rejected the expansion of Medicare funds will probably get that money back, as they are working on allowing them to take any rejected money now that the President is not a black man. thats not a real budget. ignore everything that comes from trumps budget its going nowhere

Christ what a loving mess. It doesn't help that the media is basically double dog daring them to remove the previous existing conditions otherwise it's just "Obamacare Lite". Get hosed. Everyone. The entire world, go gently caress youself!

They are in fairly important places though.

The thing about Brianna Wu is that she is fairly plainly bad for many reasons but so is the guy she's primarying like if she were running against Capuano or Kennedy I'd roll my eyes and move on but Lynch actually does kinda suck

You know I'd like to believe that all this bickering over healthcare will eventually lead to a single payer system because most of America will eventually realize that making a profit off of healthcare is dumb but I fully expect that congress will be debating the 20th iteration of repeal and replace Obamacare 20 years from now.

I'll wait until a supermajority and a good Democratic candidate in 2020, to be quite honest. After all, this could be Trump's sole accomplishment: being so piss-awful that he destroys everything he comes near. If God was a MAD magazine cartoonist. Jesus Christ, it's like a burn victim stole a mask from a Primus video and dulled it down so it could almost pass for real. This is more realistic than Primus Madface up there. That said, it's like the Leader from the Hulk comics went to Business School.
