It’s like Dems are stuck in this loop of planning around how people *should* vote, despite years of evidence that they don't vote that way, but are also like "Well, if you can't just see that you should vote for us, we certainly won't do anything else to get your vote."

I think the article lays it out pretty well. In spite of evidence that young voters are policy-driven, they go with "Democrat Avengers" marketing. 

Also worth noting that while enthusiasm and favorability isn’t everything, it certainly helps a candidate if their base is at least enthusiastic to support them. 

I’m glad it worked out :P

An active pandemic changes that equation, I think. Short-lifespan or no, a lockdown or a quarantine that because of political pressure starts 2 weeks earlier in any of the hot spots in this country would’ve saved thousands of lives. Woodward usually writes about what happened, topical but not breaking news current.…

Ashley, did you read Woodward’s defense? He was Chad from your women’s studies class.

Today has been an instane news cycle: The nightmare SCOTUS nominee teases, Bob Woodward proving to be a vulture who will rather get fat on the carcass of the nation, and the whistleblower alleging that the Trump admin pressured DHS officials into doctoring intelligence reports. The PTSD after this admin is over will…

The Democrats learned the wrong lessons during those years and started running on very similar economic policies starting with Bill Clinton (who agreed to dismantle Glass-Steagall.) When the Third Way democrats (fiscally neoliberal, socially liberal) became ascendant is when the GOP responded by tacking even harder to…

Cause every alternate site they’ve tried to start has been absolute garbage and folded almost immediately. Shocking no one.

I don’t blame Yifei for this, at least not completely, as I’m sure it’s a complicated situation. I 100% blame Disney and other companies for catering to an evil dictatorship though. Good time as any to remind everyone that corporations are never moral, they are only profit driven. Every time they give to charity, or…

It’s weird that this has been painted as some kind of error or miscommunication on Harris’s part. Again the media fails on the framing of the question. That any president should have a say in the timeline of a vaccine approval is ridiculous. Kamala Harris simply said the scientists should have the final word. Not Trump…

A few things:

The vast majority of people did acknowledge that. Can we blame the electoral college? You know, the real problem here?

No kidding. This asswipe is the gift that keeps on taking. 

It’s the booze bloat for sure.

You can Google it, you know. Jezebel, the Washington Post, the NYT, etc extensively covered what a crap job Joe did at that time and after.

I guess you haven’t heard of BDSM?

I guess this is the kind of “progressive” we can expect if Biden wins. The overton window has gone so far to the right because of Trump’ America that the above person will truly consider themselves a feminist. Like Anita Hill, I too am left with no choice but to support NotTrump. But it’s still fucking disgusting the…

OTOH cookies aren’t going to do much for when the choice between the two represents a difference of probably hundreds of thousands more deaths.

Well, we see five minutes of him being a snotty, self-involved, unnecessarily insecure, confrontational and condescending asshole to her while they’re supposed to be on a date before she delivers that line, so that’s at least partly where she gets to determine that he’s an asshole.
