Agree with Dan Savage

He said on real time that we Dems need to stop trying to reach out to voters who will never vote for Dems. Instead they need to concentrate on people who don't or rarely vote, but if they did they, would vote Dem

And I still cannot believe that this idiot is President.

2020 Democratic nominee

As much as I love Mrs. Obama and Respect Hillary that "We go high when they go low" and "Love Trumps hate" taking the high road stuff doesn't work. We need to fight nasty with nasty. The political norms don't stick or work with Trump. The American people don't care. We need someone that will get under his skin. Someone that will give him a nickname like "Fatso Don" (as childish as it is, that would irritate him. Yes the media would complain about the nastiness of the race, and the American people will complain to. But in the end they will vote either one of two ways.

If there was a Democratic POTUS

And Dems were barely winning special elections in strong Democratic area then the narrative from the MSM and Repugs would be that the close wins are a repudiation on the POTUS.

Jurors

Are most Americans too stupid, bias, racist, you name it to be impartial jurors?

What the tell happened to Wisconsin?

I found myself asking that after the election, but truth be told it has been slowly shifting republican for sometime. Gore and Kerry both barely won the state. And Walkerhas survived three elections, while Johnson won in 2010. Also add that Ryan is from there along with the Dufus Duffy. And as of now it looks like walker is going to get reelected in 2018 easily.

Just as Virginia/Colo has shifted blue, a state like this (along with Michigan/Pennsylvania) is shifting red.

I knew that this was going to happen with those states but I figured that Texas/Arizona/Georgia would shift blue, but they are taking longer to shift over.

If Robert Bork had been confirmed for the SCOTUS

The current court would be 5-4 in favor of the liberal wing. Obama would have replaced Bork. Yes Kennedy has been less radical than Bork would have been, but what major rulings would have been different if it was Bork instead of Kennedy.
