dana white, peter thiel and tom barrack!

dana white on his art collection:

quote:

"That's a gun that's taped up in dollar bills. What this piece of art represents is ... literally on the other side on that clip, those are all real drugs in there. There's cocaine, black tar heroin, and a bunch of other actual legit drugs that are in the clip over there. It represents what war is really all about. What happens as a result of war. It's all about money, what happens to the soldiers who go over and fight, most of them become addicted to drugs or messed up somehow. So it's pretty cool what this piece of art represents."

peter thiel on democracy:

quote:

Most importantly, I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible.

peter thiel on women's suffrage:

quote:

Since 1920, the vast increase in welfare beneficiaries and the extension of the franchise to women � two constituencies that are notoriously tough for libertarians � have rendered the notion of �capitalist democracy� into an oxymoron.

tom barrack on the democratic nominee:

quote:

Hillary�s an amazingly accomplished woman. To say that she�s not capable or competent? It�s ridiculous. She�s unbelievably capable or competent

Is there some rule that prohibits presidential campaigns in the year 2016 from borrowing those lists that were drawn up by the last however-many years of local, state, and federal election campaigns, or which compels those campaigns to destroy their lists and notes once they're done using them? One would think that knowing some simple stuff like "John Smith, who lives at 123 Anystreet, has identified as a Republican voter every time he's been contacted in the past 12 years and we've driven him to the polls twice and overheard him state he voted R at an exit poll," would be really useful. Is that sort of stuff not kept around and pushed forward in subsequent years? Are there election rules against it?

even if trump gets his hands on romney/mccains lists they are useless without an organization to take advantage of them. get out the vote isn't just some people in vans driving old people to polling places. you need to get people face to face with your voters and assure them your candidate cares about what they care about. you need to know who is likely to donate if you send someone to their door or have someone call them or email them. you need volunteers at polling locations checking off people on your list so you don't spend time chasing people who have already voted. you need people to recruit and motivate all the volunteers you'll need and you need people to manage those people

donald trump doesn't even have offices open in most states yet

Oh please please please let Texas switch to blue this year. It's one hell of a longshot, but the Republicans would be making GBS threads themselves in actual terror instead of made-up terror to justify their bigotry and incest. The biggest piece of the GOP electoral pie taken by Hillary Clinton of all people.....one can dream. One can dream.

it's probably too late for this election but if the democrats tried i think they could flip texas. non-hispanic whites is less than 45% of the state population so if democrats can get better margins with hispanics, african americans and white women than republicans can get with white men they could win. the problem is that there is basically no democratic apparatus in texas so they'd be starting from scratch to build an effective organization
