Yeah, I’m not sure how he concluded it has been proven spectacularly untrue. Has there actually been a true left-wing candidate that has even run in a swing district? It’s certainly possible left candidates could do better in swing districts, we just have no way of knowing right now.

It’s been proven true that it’s hard to hold swing districts.

Remember when Deval Patrick was the smart money choice to run for president?  Good times.  He should run on a ticket with Andrew Cuomo, Dumb and Dumber 2020

My mom has a crested cockatoo. Fuck him. He’s mean as shit and holds grudges. He’s at least 30 years old because she got him when I went off to college.

She has all the fierce moral urgency of Martha Coakley, with none of the charm

That “Affordable, quality healthcare” is actually “98% free, extremely sub-par healthcare” in state’s that didn’t already have a healthcare net. Obama, dumbass that he was, decided to ram it through without thinking for a second about how the Federal Government had no right to dictate what the States offered for…

A normal person would also never expect that every time they step out into public that any time they are on a camera police have access to that they are also being cross-referenced with the DMV database irrespective of whether they may have committed any crime. That’s some Big Brother surveillance state shit. …

Well, a quick Google reveals that the first facial recognition software was developed in the mid-1960s (research funded by an unnamed intelligence agency) and there have been prevalent public security cameras my entire life (ATMs, banks, retail stores, traffic).

Nope, not the only one. Maybe I’ve been misled by too many TV shows and movies where the crime-solving nerd character has access to every government database ever, but I’ve always assumed that once any part of Big Brother has a photo, it’s available to every branch. Same with fingerprints and DNA.

It is astonishing that you guys only take notice of this when illegal immigrants are on the line.

I mean... as someone who wants to be able to own suppressors and other cool stuff without a bunch of bullshit paperwork, I wouldn’t be too mad if the BATFE went away tomorrow.

I guess I’m the only one who didn’t assume they’ve been doing this for decades?

It’s almost as if - wait for itttt - people die every day?

Stop coming here

Holy shit. Seriously?

Sure, says triathlon right there!  

That was a triathlon joke

No one ever said switching to triathlons was easy.  RIP
