During a bout of insomnia the other day I went through about four months of thread rounding up all the nominations in a spreadsheet. Is this something that's actually useful and should I keep going, or should I just clear the file and stare at the ceiling like a normal person?

I believe Discordio Vox does this at the end of the year and I'm sure they'll be delighted to hear they can spend less time doing that; send the file to them

I'm fairly drat sure some goon has a program to scrape threads though and can do the task in seconds.

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.

Please PM it to me then resume staring; I’ll be doing that work as I start to prep to run the Kellies.

Out of curiosity, I check Sanders and his polling, and he’s around high 40s/low 50s. So Rall basically picked Biden’s lowest poll and Bernie’s highest.

Biden sucks plenty without resorting to crap like this, especially when your point is “guy too old, elect older guy.” Just call him out on being a terrible leader who can’t wrangle two wayward senators and capitulates way too easily to the GOP. You know, like Obama without the charisma.

Biden’s average is 42%, but people keep cherry-picking the same 36% poll from a few weeks ago. All recent polls are in the low 40s.

Rasmussen released a new set of polls recently that say that Trump has a 13% lead over Biden if the election were held today, and that the percentage is even higher among independents, so I wouldn't be surprised if right wing cartoonists (and Rall) start using those numbers.

It was a shame how he carried on
I for one am SHOCKED that a Democrat inherited an absolute loving mess and is getting dragged in the polls as a result. Just in time for Republicans to sweep up midterms!

No this isn't an endorsement for Biden either. I'm only 31 years old though and I'm already sick of this lovely pattern where a Republican comes in and trashes the place and then the following Democrat gets poo poo on for not pulling some Cat in the Hat poo poo and tidying the place up before mom and dad get home.

It makes perfect sense to give the variant a name without needless political baggage. Hell, there are probably a million people with the last name Xi besides him anyway.

That’s because people like Garrison have already been trained in that point while COVID was running wild under Trump; those people were already dying anyway/the number is a lie. Basically if you’re not a big enough name to be proven to have died/weren’t personally known you didn’t really die of COVID and if you’re somehow able to be proven to have actually died you were a weak invalid who was dead anyway with or without COVID so who cares
