wvParticipantNathan thinks the Texas/Michigan results demonstrate that ‘Bernie would have won,’ and that ‘nobody should ever listen again to the ‘electability’ arguments of the corporate democrats’
wvParticipantLotta under-the-radar stuff goin on. Texas Board of Education for example. Looks like it got flipped. Looks like it will be 8 Dems and 7 Reps.

vwvParticipantNice to see a Dem-socialist Mayor in Los Angeles: Nithya Raman.
It was a very close election, but she won. Police Union didnt like her.wvParticipantErik Kendricks (veteran LB signed in October)
wvParticipantBe nice to live in a country where a General Strike is on the table.
wvParticipantThe deli-meat statement
wvParticipantWell, I have to admit my level of glee is higher than I would have predicted beforehand. The country banded together and kicked MAGA in the nuts as hard as it fucking could,..
But this is absolutely NOT an endorsement of Democrats (who, in additon to being the lesser evil, are the lesser unpopular)…
Yeah, a shit-ton of voters didnt trust the dem but they were disgusted with Maga.
I’ve been looking for the analytics breakdowns. Apparently, 72 percent of the 18-29 year olds voted Blue. 72 percent. If i’m not mistaken that is unheard of. (In 2024 it was 54 percent)
Only 48 percent of the over-65 folks voted Blue.
Latinos (if thats the right word) make up 40 percent of Texas now. Huge shift from 2024 among them. 62 percent went blue. Only 51 percent went blue in 2024. If that change sticks, the Reps are screwed.

vwvParticipantIce on Stafford’s elbow. Chris Simms thinks its not-nothing.
wvParticipantwvParticipantwvParticipantG Steve Avila (hamstring) and WR Jordan Whittington (back) will be limited at practice.
========This little thing could be huge.

vwvParticipantI am thoroughly enjoying the maga melt-downs all across this Islamic-Communist nation.
MAGA human : “America is over. Many of us warned for years about the Islamic-Communist takeover of America”

wvParticipantMany Latino voters, apparently, lurched away from Trump this time.
wvParticipantThe Quentin Lake vid.
Umm….did Quentin just say Herbert was ‘throwing deli meat out there’ ?
I must have heard that wrong. But I replayed it, and thats what it sounded like he said.
Was he laughing and mocking Herbert?
w
vwvParticipantThe Jesus left.
wvParticipantAbdul El Sayed will be the new celebrity-progressive, i guess. He can dance. (see the vid) He’s witty. He’s one of the VERY few Democrats I’ve seen who can actually go toe to toe with Trump in the verbal-sparring department.
It will be interesting to see how he fares in the capitalist toxic-swamp. Will he join the swamp? Will he survive the smears? Will he actually ‘do’ anything? Will he be assassinated?
wvParticipantI see the great Moose-state lost its Republican senator.
=======================
“…More than $1.5 billion in earmarks couldn’t save Sen. Susan Collins from the “blue wave” Tuesday night, proving outsized influence in Congress isn’t always an antidote for deep voter dissatisfaction with an incumbent party.
The Maine Republican centered her reelection campaign on the argument that, in an institution largely governed by seniority, her nearly 30 years in Washington and control of the powerful Appropriations Committee could deliver more for Maine than her Democratic challenger Troy Jackson….
…Maine Rep. Chellie Pingree, a Democrat who has represented Portland and surrounding towns for almost 18 years, said in an interview that there is no doubt voters are “grateful for the amount of money a state’s able to receive” when represented by a top appropriator.
“But I think Mainers were balancing the Republican majority and the cuts to our state already,” Pingree added. “So, yes — we hate to lose the earmarks that go to fire departments and sewer projects and other things. But overall, we’re much better off without a Republican majority.”
She noted almost $1 trillion in reductions to health care spending under the GOP megabill enacted last year, President Donald Trump’s tariffs, staffing losses at federal agencies like USDA and the expiration of subsidies for people who buy health care through the federal marketplace….
wvParticipantSam Darnold is ruled out this Sunday against the pesky Cardinals. Quad injury.

Seahawks 4-4
Rams 4-4wvParticipantI’ve been reading dystopian stuff this summer but i spun off into the Horror genre for a bit. I’ve never really been interested in that genre, but it seemed fitting with Trump and all.
Anyway, I figured I’d go-ahead-and-read a Stephen King book along with some other stuff. (gonna read Tender is the Flesh) I landed on Pet Sematary for random reasons.
I must say, i picked the right book. I dont expect much from King, but this was quite good. Quite good.
King’s biggest flaw to me has always been his Norman-Rockwell-ish perspective on America and Pet Sematary does have that flaw, but if you can set that kind of thing aside, its quite a good story and there are very few roll-your-eyes moments.
I might have to watch the movie sometime.

vwvParticipantI dunno who this Talerico guy is, but he managed to win in Texas. All, i know is every single time i turned on my computer for the last 3 months he showed up on the side of my screen asking for money.
“First Democratic Senator in Texas in 30 years.”
“First Democratic Senator in Kansas in 94 years.”
Is this all about gas prices? Knowing Americans, i imagine its something like that. Genocide doesnt matter. Ecocide doesnt matter. Gas prices matter.
wvParticipantI agree with Atkins.
… They need another receiver. And please not Aiyuk.
…I kinda doubt there’s anybody out there who they could afford, and who could come in at this point and help them.
I’d like to know how many of stafford’s 8 INTs have come from passes to WRs NOT named Puka or Davante. I think at least 6 have come from aiming at other guys.
w
vwvParticipantwvParticipantSo…is this a ‘highlight’ play for the Chargers? When is a 50 yard completion not a highlight?
wvParticipantI had no idea McDuffie was that physical in the run game. Damn.
He’s not as big as Jalen Ramsey but he’s got the same mentality.
w
vwvParticipantRodrigue on what adding Simmons to the Bears means:
wvParticipantI would think Garrett will play this week.
I dunno. This is the first week he’s been practicing, so i was thinkin they would not play him with that limited amount of practice.
w
vwvParticipantMan, that new DT the Bears signed (Simmons) is making mince-meat
of the Seahawks interior OLine. Bears looking like a different team with that guy.w
vwvParticipantThe Super-Team has finally sunk.
Super Bowl Odds, according to some site on the internet:
1 Bills
2 49ers
3 (tied) Seahawks, Jaguars
5 Bears
6 (tied) Rams, Chiefs
8 Lionsw
vwvParticipantA Gardener and his hat.
