iospace posted:Yeah. It's why we'll likely see manager #4 soon. VP debate is going to likely be a wash (and no one cares except for diehard politics nerds), though the Town Hall is going to be what ultimately makes or breaks Trump. He has a good showing, and he might be able to make things competitive again. He has a bad showing, and all that's left is to wonder "how bad will the blowout be and/or how will we be able to deal with such a harvest of corncobs?" Call me an optimist but I don't think Trump's capable of holding it together during the next debate.

gfsincere posted:Armed White Lives Matter protest in front of the Houston NAACP by white supremacists specifically for the purpose of intimidating black people. While deplorable, the first ones actually legal so long as they're not breaking any fire arm laws and sticking to just protest. They're fuckers but they're legal fuckers. Doing that same poo poo isn't legal at polls because it's voter intimidation.

She PANDERS to anti-vaxxers - every time the subject is brought up, instead of simply answering "no, vaccines are vital" she goes on a whole diatribe about how it's understandable people have concerns about big pharma. When it comes to stopping the spread of preventable disease, there is absolutely no difference between the two what so ever.

Young Freud posted:That might happen for November, just as a recap, but I have a feeling that the Clinton camp have planned for these things to have a life expectancy. First it was the Khans, then it was Machado, now the tax returns: Hillary's attacks will be presented in widest possible form available, be it the 110 million audience of the debates or the New York Times; they will be on everyone's lips, on every newspaper, website, and news broadcast, for a couple weeks at most; Trump will try to explain away (which, if you explain, you're losing) or present his recycled attacks as a rebuttal; and by the time it dies down and/or Trump think he has handle on the attack, Hillary will no longer touches it and drops a new bomb, and that dominates the news cycle and Trump's attention. I can see this since Trump's opp research binder's actually a file cabinet.

cult member at airport posted:I wonder if the October Surprise is just a continuous dump of new stuff until election day with the goal of disgusting enough moderate Trump supporters to stay home on election day (or make them stay home out of apathy thinking he's gonna lose for sure). Along with a good GOTV effort by Clinton, this could be really good for down ticket races. Hope that's the plan. Trump must be buried and the gop punished for letting him happen. Also it'd be nice way to occupy my time after the Cubs are swept out of the NLDS.

I know it's some way really big companies can tilt disputes in their favor, but I've never been clear on what it is exactly. Buried in the ToS you didn't read you agree to settle all disputes according to arbitration where Dick Hole Bank picks the terms. It's the judicial equivalent of suing Heritage Foundation and them picking Scalias rotting corpse as the judge.
