Here's a discussion of polling in PA that came out today, which purports to be uncommonly significant.
Here's a discussion of polling in PA that came out today, which purports to be uncommonly significant.Yes we all realize the EC sucks. Yes under the worst case scenario it would be possible to win with 11 votes vs 100M+ for the other guy. Or a 538 pt blowout in the EC with 50 more votes than the other guy.
Even under semi-realistic voting scenarios a candidate could win with 23% of the popular vote.
Saying “POLLS DONT MATTER!1!1 THE POPULAR VOTE DOESNT MATTER ONEONE||” isn’t remotely helpful.
Everyone on this board understands the EC determines the president.
However WE WILL NOT FUNDAMENTALLY KNOW WHAT THE EC SAYS UNTIL SOMETIME AFTER THE ELECTION.
Polls are the only thing that provides insight into the race TODAY. They are the ONLY thing that matters if a candidate wants to know how to spend their time and resources TODAY to improve their chances of winning.
Scientific polls are well correlated with the EC. That doesn’t mean they’ll predict the eventual EC outcome it does mean it can predict who has the best chance of an EC win or if a race is close enough that the winner is uncertain. Both cases are useful to a candidate to know now.

Ah, yeah, I get what you are saying. Those little comments drive me nuts too. I usually notice it more when it about a politician or news anchor.
Hope you don't mind but I've categorized that as a "Friendly Folksy Saying" and putting that one in my back pocket for future use.
In TX it was cheerios.You know, many moons ago I originally heard it as “Who pissed on your cornflakes this morning?”
I'm not saying that comment in itself was all the egregious, more completely unnecessary in the context. Sure, she's sexualized herself, but even so, the comment wasn't germane to the discussion. Little unnecessary side comments may be innocuous on their own, but they contribute to the overall tone of the forum.
For sure there are more egregious examples, and they've been irking me for a long time now. I happened to pick this one to speak up, partially because I was under the (mistaken) impression that Meghan would want to have an actual conversation about what I feel is a pretty big issue around here.
Reminds me of a banana spider.Again, enough with this election irrelevancy! The spiders have found this thread, and they're coming for me!
The problems are tied to the election, a significant part of the voting population is willing to bet that they will ultimately benefit (and that the undesirables will be punished) by moving towards a more autocratic form of government. They are, of course, right that the undesirables will be punished, they just lack understanding that they will also suffer and will have given up the ability to easily take action about it. When it's too late, they might lament the militarization of our police.I'd say we have problems bigger than any election in this country.
Ohio sheriff says to ‘write down’ addresses of homes with Harris signs
“I say … write down all the addresses of the people who had her signs in their yards!” Zuchowski (R) said. That way, he said, when undocumented immigrants — which he referred to as a “locust” — flooded in, “We’ll already have the addresses of their New families … who supported their arrival!”
Vance has to be a DNC plant. Joe Biden is a criminal mastermind!Hey, does anyone remember that famous "concepts of a plan" Healthcare statement from ages ago? Well, it turns out that Vance has spilled the beans and the plan they're conceptualizing is, get this, "let insurers charge more for pre-existing conditions."
That's a home run of a plan right there.
It gets worse! Now the biggest mostest orangest web (of lies!) spinner ever is coming to The Shrine of Our Lady of Czestochowa, which is less than 10 minutes from my house!Again, enough with this election irrelevancy! The spiders have found this thread, and they're coming for me!

Ah, the genius of the plan is the simplicity!Hey, does anyone remember that famous "concepts of a plan" Healthcare statement from ages ago? Well, it turns out that Vance has spilled the beans and the plan they're conceptualizing is, get this, "let insurers charge more for pre-existing conditions."

Welcome to reality. It's been 8 years...I always thought "deplorables" only applied to the small minority of the far right. It seems to be more and more applicable to wide swaths of Republicans these days, though.
I wonder if Elon deleting his post didn't have something to do with him realizing that his security detail isn't as robust as Donald's (whose detail appears to be fairly flimsy, alas).It didn't seem to change the numbers the first time, but unclear how a second "attempt" in two months changes things, or not. Uncharted waters, all of it.

That guy should lose his job, pronto.I'd say we have problems bigger than any election in this country.

Just be nice to them and scratch their bellies, you'll be fine.Again, enough with this election irrelevancy! The spiders have found this thread, and they're coming for me!

I postulated over dinner some months before the 2016 General that Trump was out to destroy the Republican Party. It appears to me that I may have been correct. Is it not in a shambles? Kinda?Vance has to be a DNC plant. Joe Biden is a criminal mastermind!
Please, no! The last thing we need is Trump or Gamce to start talking about witchcraft. Once that happens, it would then be a small amount of time before someone starts a Salem witch trials in the United States. That something we do not want.Da Devil made her do it!!!
