Looks like Bernie's got a pretty decent chance at taking CO too. Holding steady at about 52%.

I have faith that Trump's VP pick will be loving mind blowing. Like, picking an actual pro wrestler or something.

... is Jesse Ventura doing anything these days?

Good god, what if he kept his word and chose Palin? :psyduck:

So, while we're talking about downticket races: what happened to 2016 being a supposed bloodbath for the GOP in the Senate? Even in 2013 and esp after 2014 I heard a lot of talk about how 2016 was supposed to be the year where the Democrats regain a sweeping majority in the Senate, possibly even filibuster-proof, due to all those Tea Party wave assholes being up for re-election. What happened?

All of that was based on Dems not doing too bad in 2014, as opposed to doing almost as bad as was possible.

They should still take a few seats, but the massive GOP gains in '14 will make it difficult to regain the majority.

Looks like California will raise its minimum wage to $15/hr by 2022 (2023 for small businesses) and index it to inflation after that.

Colorado is all mail-in ballots these days, so we can smoke our legal weed while voting for socialized medicine this year :350:

Kasich would blend in perfectly as a middle-manager at any rural Lowe's in America.

This would be cool so local-transit-chat doesn't derail USPol. Make sure and let us all know when it's up. I want a place to talk about how subway systems across the country are becoming failed organizations.

Agreed, I'd love to see a public transit thread to nerd out about and probably never post in. :)

That was pretty tame, and the guy heard in the video is way too high-strung.
