I've owned uh like three cars, my wife has owned 1. I'm 37, so each car lasted me 6 and a half years which isn't too bad. I only ever got another car because loving suicidal deer jumping out of the god drat woods. Goddamn giant rats if you ask me. I should still be driving my 98 Saturn with manual windows if I had my way

Buttigieg just aired a commercial during Rutgers v Iowa basketball. Clips of him shaking hands with black people. Talking to black people. Couple interviews with black people. Wonder if that commercial airs during hockey games.

I just saw the full context Biden clip https://twitter.com/CBSNews/status/1220053331189682177 and it is not one single bit better, he still looks like he's having a psycho freakout and the chest bump was more threatening than cordial.

The thing about that Biden clip is when he turns. You can see he's genuinely really loving annoyed in the way he just suddenly, sharply turns around and zeroes in on the guy I mean I don't give a gently caress, but Howard Dean's campaign was ended by a lot less

hmmm yes how do we get the mythical white working class voters to get on board with Biden? Perhaps we can point out that his opponent, who we very much don't want to win, isn't supportive of taking their guns away? https://twitter.com/tomwatson/status/1220032841951731718?s=20

Wonder if that commercial airs during hockey games. Does Buttigieg think that black people just aren't aware of him or something? That if he just proves that he has some black friends that black voters will decide that his support of racist cops in South Bend was all in good fun or something? I guess it's a rhetorical question because even while I'm typing it I can already hear his campaign strategists in my head, talking in buzz-word filled sentences about pragmatic black voters and how they'll switch over to Mayor Butt en masse if he can just edge out Biden in Iowa. "That Bernie guy is too pie in the sky for them, so you'll reap all the benefits boss, just do an awkward guest appearance with Lizzo to prove you don't vomit in the presence of people darker than tan and their votes are all yours." oxsnard posted:hmmm yes how do we get the mythical white working class voters to get on board with Biden?

The best part about all of this is once Sanders is the clear frontrunner, the media won't be able to help themselves with breathless stories about "who can stop Sanders????" Thus further elevating his profile this cycle

Isn't that just how men of his age act? That was always very much my experience. All that is missing is Biden slapping the guy around a little, maybe calling him some anti-homosexual slurs.

Why does Biden have such a Trumpian amount of gross baggage, as well as Trumpian immunity from its consequences. Nobody's talked about it for a while, but it would sink any other Democrat's career (and even some Republicans') to have even one picture getting Biden's level of handsy with women/girls.

Yeah, I was coming to also post that everything in his facial patterns, his loss of focus when confronting the guy and the excessive repetition of one word, with the attempt to play it off as being normal right after, remind me exactly of my grandma who has both Alzheimer’s and dementia. Dude should not be trotting around the country in front of cameras trying to become president. He should be sitting on a park bench somewhere feeding pigeons bread.

I chalked that instance up to just his old-rear end mentality of macho tough guy greaser bullshit. He gets up in people's business because he wants to intimidate them and knows he can get away with it. I mean, what're you gonna do about it? Raise a hand to him and get your rear end beat by Secret Service?

got this notification from facebook today   I am very sorry for my bad posts on social media which may have mistakenly led someone to believe that I have firsthand knowledge that JOE BIDEN EATS THE WOODEN STICKS IN CORN DOGS. I would not want anyone to get the wrong idea. My intent was not to express the idea that it is completely true that JOE BIDEN EATS THE WOODEN STICKS IN CORN DOGS. Honesty is my first priority and I never meant to mislead anyone

Biden floats because D voters think a second Trump term would be gut-punchingly loathsome. Biden has the "He can beat Trump!" shine, and as long as he does he will maintain a strong base of support. I'm not saying it's deserved or a good thing.

Bloomberg does realize he got into the race WAY too late to even remotely be a factor, right? Like if he had swooped in while Biden was still flip-flopping on running and claimed the "centrist old white guy who can get the John Q Publics who flocked to Trump back on the Democrats side" lane maybe he'd at least be putting up not completely embarrassing poll numbers, but that ship sailed ages ago. Something about feeling entitled to political office just breaks rich people brains even more than usual. Reminds me of when Meg Whitman poured more of her own personal wealth into her California Governor bid than any other candidate in US history, and still lost stone cold to Brown because even $144 million in personal campaign financing wasn't enough to distract the electorate from the fact that she was complete poo poo.
