As a Kings fan, I for one cannot wait to see where our continued attempts to be the NBA’s version of the Browns will take us next.

Man, I must be really emotional right now, because I teared up at the end.
That umlaut. That umlaut is my favorite thing ever.
Okay, so I’m going to take it straight to race.
I’m a filmmaker in my real life and without going into too much detail I did a film that explores a lot of racial subjects/theories.
Shep Smith is slamming 45 on Fox. I honestly am amazed, it gives me just a glimmer of hope that Babyhand’s smokescreen for the GOP/punishment for the huge backlash is the beginning of the end.
I really think Pence may be innocent of the Russian shit. Not because he’s patriotic or anything, but just because he really isnt in the inner circle. Trump almost didn’t choose him and feels he was forced on him. You know he doesn’t like how stuck-up he is. (I doubt Pence does locker room “pussygrab” talk.)
My favorite Norm MacDonald appearance wasn’t stand up but this guest spot on early Conan O’Brien where he flat-out insults a movie starring co-Conan guest Courtney Thorne Smith and Carrot Top and it’s so funny and devastating that even she has to laugh. I’ve never forgotten this.
I did not say that the poll definitively disproved the notion that we should move further left.
We may be saying the same thing. I think the Dems need to do a better job of emphasizing “we are the party for working/middle class people”.
Agreed. But I still think that moving to the left will allow for a more coherent and easily digested economic message, and not necessarily at the expense of more identity-based politics. You know, when FDR came out with the New Deal and could say “Hey, old people, now you’ll have money after you retire” democrats…
That’s the exact opposite of how to win Presidential elections. There are no swing voters anymore. You win by bringing out the base and getting turnout. Clinton lost because her base didn’t come out to vote. She didn’t get enough African American voters in the upper midwest. She didn’t get enough young voters in the…
After 1988, the Democrats have won the popular vote in every Presidential election with the exception of 2004. You can argue about leadership and strategies, both with elections and with lawmaking, but the ideology isn’t to blame. They chose a Left-of-Center candidate in 2008 who actually moved more to center when in…
This is so, so critical. Obama’s biggest mistake was never taking credit for anything he did, and god bless him for that, because he was too busy working his ass off to aggrandize himself and hold big press conferences about how he was Saving America, but it bit him in the ass because it left the Republican message…
“The Democratic Party needs to go left.”
This is what a lot of Dems keep overlooking. They aren’t playing “the game” well enough. They don’t understand that if you have policies that are good for people, you have to BEAT THEM OVER THE HEAD with the proof. Dems just assume that people will figure it all out on their own. Well the truth is that most people…
Yep. It is frustrating that it seems like, at least for those within my circle, the Hillary supporters (myself included) are willing to admit to the mistakes made whereas the Bernie supporters can’t stop saying “Told ya!” (even though they were wrong).
We keep trying to be polite, but people just aren’t getting the message. Somebody needs to just come out and say “You guys are getting buttfucked. I know you think Trump is a cool guy, and I’m sure you’ve had a few quality laughs at his rants. Good times. Anyway, he’s a con man and you aren’t his friend. You’re his…
Ellison has said he would resign his seat in Congress if chosen
Both Tom Perez and Keith Ellison are excellent choices. Either one will be an advocate for progressive causes. I would pick Perez only because I would rather the DNC chair not be an active member of congress and have to be worried about his or her own seat, but Ellison’s great as well.
Tom Perez was the most progressive member of the Obama administration, is enormously competent, and is committed to rebuilding state-level Democratic politics. Keith Ellison is...endorsed by Bernie. That’s about it. The people who elect the DNC chair should ask themselves “Who will do a better job at building the…
