Yep, that’s always possible - if Ryan goes full-tilt to privatizing Medicare, there are lots of balls in the air. Absolutely. If the Dems are smart (always a questionable assumption), they will take the winter holiday to bring pitchforks and torches to the Ryan residence in Janesville, WI.
You are aware of the numbers of D and R senators up in 2018?
“You’re not being nice. You’re certainly not being analytical,” Conway replied as she calmly and methodically slit their throats and drained both of their bodies of the red life-sustaining elixir.
And yet he lost handily to Clinton. If Sanders message was so powerful, he’d have beaten her among those most in agreement with him. He didn’t. But it’s as useless as tits on a boar hog to be arguing what Sanders could’ve done were he the nominee. It’s as useless as speculating what Biden would’ve done.
He lost to her, but “handily” isn’t the word I would use to characterize that loss. She should have wondered why a 74 year old virtually unknown socialist with the personality of your favorite old uncle could generate so much excitement. She didn’t and her loyal supporters like you who put her over the top in the primaries, weren’t enough. Politics is only partly about energizing your own base. It is also about attracting people who don’t have a long history with you.
When are you going to realize Hillary was a flawed candidate who didn’t work very hard to overcome her obvious shortcomings. Somebody advised her that going negative all the time was her best bet. She should have fired out the positive message I know she had in reserve.
What “we” are you referring to, you little right-wing weasel?
Another of your moronic right-wing lies.
Racism happens every day, every hour, every minute somewhere in America.
And in 99.9% of the cases, the racist is a conservative.
You fool no one here with your phony—and newly acquired—“moderate” tone.
From the WaPo article on the panel - the popular vote total came up in the context of the size of mandate.
“You guys won, that’s clear,” Benenson said. “But let’s be honest. Don’t act as if you have a popular mandate for your message. The fact of the matter is that more Americans voted for Hillary Clinton than for Donald Trump.”
At which point Conway turned to her side and said: “Hey, guys, we won. You don’t have to respond. He was the better candidate. That’s why he won.”
The Ends always justify the Means in TrumpWorld - good to know.
I am indeed. You are aware of what happens in a “wave” year when one party overreaches?
No, enlighten me, O Sage of TPM. What happens?
Oh, if only there was something like a search engine that everyone had access to, where someone could type in something like, “wave election,” and immediately get millions of results. Alas, without that I’m afraid that you will have to remain unenlightened.
And here I thought you actually had an insight, but apparently you’re just another dumb liberal bozo. I guess I am spared another “lib-splaination” of some crap about how everyone is a racist. OK, jack, later.
And there will always be something fishy about that as far as I’m concerned.
She won this election but this time it wasn’t the SCOTUS giving it to the person who didn’t win it was Russia and the FBI.
Said the concentration camp guard to the SS officer while they were unloading the cattle car at the gates of Auschwitz.
You should be ashamed but of course there is no shame anymore either -
“Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before stumbling.”. Proverbs 16:18.

LOL… I share insights and have serious discussions with those who warrant such things. You, alas, do not qualify, as your posts on this thread clearly demonstrate.
Now, if you actually want to have such a serious discussion, I’d be happy to do so, but you’ll have to start with something worth responding to.
