ISeeCuckedPeople posted:Why is Kentucky so drat poor if it has so much local industry and tourism? Usually it is low taxes hampering infrastructure but I don't think KY has unusually low taxes. Maybe it is low population density or an aftereffect of the coal bust? You pointed out that it actually has somewhat of a diverse economy so?????????????????????

axeil posted:The people gnashing their teeth and screaming THIS IS HOW DEMOCRACY DIES when the Dems lose a race in an R+20 district by 6 points instead of 20, when there are 120 seats less Republican than that one and confirms a nation-wide shift of about 15 points towards the Dems need to pull themselves together and get some perspective. It's a pretty big problem when the republican opponent is an unpopular carpetbagger, with lots of oligarchical comments and positions, and has no gun control wedge issue to help him. That means that the election was lost on messaging, real ideological differences, and/or tribalism. If the dems can't change enough hearts and minds in a purple state with a populist message like Quist then they are just a rump party. The close race narrative works in Kansas but Montana is more of a swing state.

axeil posted:The last Democrat to win a Montana Presidential Election was Bill Clinton. By what metric? Dems always get a larger percentage in MT than AL in presidential elections. Obama almost won the state in 2008 which is notable considering the racial makeup of the states we're talking about. MT has a democratic Governor and Senator which AL does not.

Sinteres posted:Huma's the dumbest person in the world if that story is true, but this guy might be a close second. Having a foreign country act as a PAC is a blatant violation of election laws and that is without getting into the Logan Act. His campaign already got in trouble for soliciting donations from foreigners.

Majorian posted:Trump permanently hobbled and Sessions out of office is the best-case scenario imo. It looks like that may well happen! It'll be harder to get Sessions because the FBI said it was okay to leave off meetings with dignitaries in his capacity as Senator when he filled out his security clearance. Obviously they were campaign meetings but that probably gives him enough wiggle room on any charges.

"rear end in a top hat" or "idiot" are fine alternatives if you want to insult someone. JK Rowling is an "rear end in a top hat" or "idiot" for talking about electability and then voting for the Lib Dems.

That's a pretty common theme with conservative politicians: acting like there is no record of their positions and talking to people like they are credulous 5 year olds. Probably because they know crying hypocrite doesn't actually do anything.

Potential BFF posted:A war with Iran would be such a profound clusterfuck that a sick little piece of my mind is intrigued at the prospect. The first antiship missile slamming into an oil tanker and the subsequent $10/gal gas would be a hell of a thing to behold. Even if they defeated the Iranian military and the Revolutionary Guard, the Mahdi Army would just cross the border and then we get to fight the middle part of Operation Iraqi Freedom again.
