It would take overturning that, or implementing Ranked Choice Voting, which is a fight in several states, including my own, Massachusetts.

This film was great! It had a perfect 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes until today. The review that killed that perfect score was of course from Armond White.

What's the first letter of given names got to do with it? What's that letter, but a second-hand identifier?

Exactly!

His elections, particularly his wins against Clinton, also proved that charisma, dignity, calmness under pressure, and the ability to write and speak with poetry are absolutely essential in order for Democrats to win.

While I don't like that Massachusetts has a fairly corrupt one-party system in local politics, given at least the state legislature is a virtual veto-proof Democratic lock, I kind of wish we voters would take that opportunity to foster a genuine third-party as an alternative to the current options of a Teflon…
