If you haven’t seen this, it’s excellent, and it 100% backs up all your points (and goes into some others re: accusations of Russian “meddling”):

Just to pile on: commercials can be extremely well-made, but a music video is a commercial for a band’s new single, whereas a straight-up commercial’s sole purpose is to sell you shit, and usually shit you don’t need (not that you need a band’s new single either, but you can just watch the video over and over on

“I’m currently inclined to say tie goes to the state”

shaky evidence

First: yes, we should be wary of DHS claims, granted.

Can you give me the link to the articles? First, I can’t tell the date of the articles. Second, this relates to WI and CA; there were (allegedly) 5 other states so far that “senior intelligence officials” claim were compromised in some way.

Well, in theory the meddling was completely ineffective i.e. “had no impact on our votes whatsoever.”

This times a million!!!

I agree with most of this, BUT this part isn’t true:

Did you really dismiss all my replies showing NBC/MSNBC categorically stated “no votes were changed and no voters were taken off the rolls”?

exactly. “We don’t care if a serial killer is in charge, as long as it’s our serial killer.”

But I think the cynics are right too when they claim that it’s not just the means/methods, the Trump Administration’s goals aren’t lofty either, they just (apparently? publicly?) coincide with MUD’s (apparently) more noble efforts.

Even worse, to guys like Tillerson right-wing military dictatorships are a bonus. Hell, they’re ideal.

BINGO

As other people have pointed out, November’s a long ways away, and anything can happen between now and then, there’s no guarantees.

You’re right and I’m glad you pointed all that out; after reading it again, yeah, the blame should be placed on Rizzo, and we don’t know exactly why McDaniel was “hoping that it would clearly refute Erica’s claim that she received a call at work...”

Oh I thought it was fine, probably not even worth mentioning my “minor quibble”

oops, my bad

Surprised you missed this one, maybe the biggest doozy of them all:
