If China did gas the entire country everyone would condemn them while breathing a sigh of relief at the same time.

my kinda ape posted:All the "moderate" Republicans have already jumped ship from the burning garbage fire. Nobody wants a Republican-lite party. The Democrats going further to the right in an idiotic quest for non-existent moderate Republicans is just going to lose 10x more people who actually want left leaning policies. Bull. Where are they going to go? If the Democratic Party isn't left-enough for them, they're not going to vote Trump in 2020. At worst, they stay home (again, in the case of Berniebros). But the Democrats do not have a broad enough base. They have to expand, and the only people available are the moderate conservatives who think the GOP is off its rocker. They're out there...but Hillary pushed them away because she didn't think she needed them. She was dead loving wrong. She absolutely needed them, and so does the Democratic Party. Pretending we're in Europe and that the Dems aren't really left is a bullshit non-argument. The center in THIS country is what matters, and feigning otherwise is a waste of time. It's a bad wall to keep bashing your head against.

That's why the convention was an America feel good exhibition with lots of military people and why Hillary went all in on Trump's personal odiousness rather than politics. It didn't work. You already got the pivot to the center Democrat and you hated her. Contrast her with Obama, who governed center but ran both times on leftist policy aims, and won handily.

Deathy McDeath posted:The vote is on Thursday, isn't it? Yep, still lots of time for those "no" votes to get turned into yes. I just don't see how. Earmarks are gone, Donnie and Pence have already pitched the House GOP, Republican big-money groups are lobbying against the bill, House Republicans have no reputation of being good vote-counters, the CBO score is garbage, the bill actually does worse with insurance numbers than straight repeal, and literally nobody likes the bill. Could be wrong though!

It's a lose/lose situation for Republicans either way so I'm fine with either outcome with the exception that one may very will kill people.

The center in THIS country is what matters, and feigning otherwise is a waste of time. It's a bad wall to keep bashing your head against. That's cool, so replace "left" with "center", and "center" with "the demographic formerly known as 'center'"? No one is really pretending you're in Europe, it's just that YOUR political spectrum has been moving to the right almost in its entirety, with a few exceptions.  /edit: Not even trying to be cute here. Also, what she absolutely needed was the people that voted in 2008 and 2012, but sat it out in 2016...I don't really think those people fall in some thus-far-unexplored demographic. The center is what she only would have needed to make up for the absence of those people. Duzzy Funlop fucked around with this message at 21:59 on Mar 21, 2017 |

Two Finger posted:Is it inaccurate? How do you know the CIA didn't whack Kennedy then threaten to do it to all subsequent Presidents to keep them in line? I can't remember but it might have been a GiP poster who originally commented something along these lines: Immediately after the inauguration, a new president is brought into a darkened briefing room full of suits smoking cigars. A screen drops from the ceiling and a tape of the Kennedy assassination is shown, shot from an entirely different angle than previously seen. Once the tape is over, a man at the head of the table asks "Any questions?"

They went liberal in the wrong ways(gun control) and then gave the entire banking industry(the only people with worse popular ratings than Congress) a free pass so yeah I'll stand by my assertion that centrism is a losing proposition for Democrats

Honestly I say run on a leftist economic message, ditch some of the more annoying social justice-y types, ditch gun control and boom you have a recipe for Democratic electoral success. Hillary had a great economic platform that was way more comprehensive than anyone else's, in either primary and obviously in the general. But she sure as hell didn't run on it.

Not seeing a single person even brought up on charges, much much less going to trial, after 2008 sticks in a whole lot of people's craw. I get all the legalistic arguments for it but people were loving pissed for good reason and the view from below was nothing but assholes opening wide to rain down even more poo poo and it wasn't the first time. Dems as a whole, for decades, have been either silent or complicit in organized labor getting thoroughly and completely rear end hosed in this country and they've been abandoned in droves for it and all the other outcomes of that kind of policy. Union membership used ti be basically guaranteed votes, now unions are a god drat joke and have been practically outlawed if they do anything that hurts the money. They coasted for years on the civil rights victories and forgot about pretty much anything else. Whether through incompetence or malice benefiting their donors is a matter of opinion.

WaPo on the Laptop ban, bold my ownquote:They note that the United States has not been forthcoming about whether the ban is based on recent intelligence or long-standing concerns. There is also no explanation for why electronic devices in the cabin are a concern, and electronic devices in the baggage hold are not.

Exactly. Attempting to be more centrist won't get you turn out. Appealing as republican light won't get you turnout. Especially among voters under 30 you need progressive policies to build any enthusiasm.
