ZooeyModeratorWell, there’s some weird-twisted truth in what the disgusting-Rep had to say though. In a weird way, AOC does get a lot more pub than any other Dem i can think of except maybe Pelosi. Why?
The ‘why’ of it, is more interesting than the ‘what’ of it.
I’m not sure ‘why’ she gets so much media-attention given her length of membership and power. Partly, i think its because the MSM likes to smear her. Partly its because she must get high-ratings. Partly, because the MSM likes to set up conflict in its narratives: AOC vs Pelosi, etc.
I dunno. But Kasich is not completely off base. Not totally.
w
vI think you are right about all those things. I think it’s also because she’s hot.
She isn’t politically different from other members of the Squad, and they get some attention too, but not as much as she does. The media makes it appear like she’s the captain of the Squad. So she just works from a media Ratings standpoint.
Yeah, Kasich is right. He’s also a fucking asshole who should not be at the convention, and his placement there is a huge Tell about the DNC…though nothing that we didn’t already know. It’s not like the Democrats pretend to be progressive anymore.

ZooeyModeratorDestroying the Post Office is really not a thing I expected to see. This is just surreal.

ZooeyModeratorEven if you drop ballots off in person — you still have to RECEIVE the ballots by mail, right?
w
vYes, unless you go to the precinct on Nov. 3. In WV, you can request your ballot right now, and voters will begin to be receive them on Sep. 19. You will get it in time. And probably WV is not going to be screwed with that much anyway as…you know.
It’s MI, NC, FL, PA, WI, and TX that are going to be screwed with. And apparently IL, CA, NY, and MA just because. It’s kind of pointless screwing with CA because even if they eliminated all of Los Angeles, Biden would still win this state by 3 million votes.

ZooeyModeratorLos Angeles last night.

ZooeyModeratorRealignment: Trump will be gone and the Republicans from the Lincoln Project will have more power in the Democratic Party than the Squad.

ZooeyModerator============
Are we agreed, this mail thing is a NEW level of domestic Republican nefariousness?
I mean….just…how…ignorant can the electorate be. This evil evil plan can only work if the american electorate has reached abysmal lows. Every conservative in america should be up in arms about this.
w
vI would say that we are in a brand new, fresh level of Hell.
They are saying and doing things out loud now. The stuff that we always accused them of doing, and that the conservatives told us was our feverish conspiracy wacko ideas. They are now saying and doing things in broad daylight, and the conservatives are STILL telling us that they aren’t.
ZooeyModeratorWell, who knows how WV would handle that. Each State might be different.

I will be hand-delivering mine to the County Clerk this year. In California, we are allowed to drop them off at a precinct on election day, but I don’t see that provision in WV. Not really an issue for you, though.
ZooeyModeratorNoteboom as a backup.
That is not what we were hoping for.
As far as ratings…yeah. Not surprisingly, this show has evolved into extended commercials for the NFL. There is no longer any honesty in it.
ZooeyModeratorThe juxtaposition of Gurley walking with a limp but looking good during drills is, unfortunately, the reality with the running back at this point
Gurley is unfortunate. He was a great one who lost out to injury. He coulda been on the Rams Mt. Rushmore of RBs alongside McCutcheon, Dickerson, Faulk, Jackson, and of course Greg Hill, if not for injury. (Bettis was also short-lived).
ZooeyModeratorI don’t have a counterargument. I’m forced to admit that that IS good news.

ZooeyModerator=======================
Well, I am just speculating wildly, like everyone else, but it almost seems like he’s doing one of three things:
1) He’s given up on re-election and he’s just going to go all out and do whatever he can to further his rightwing agenda, while he’s still in office.
2) He’s planning on winning by massive-cheating.
3) He’s gone mad as a hatter.w
v4) All of the above.
ZooeyModeratorThis…and the fact he is letting old people die from Covid…is going to drive down the number of votes he gets from retirees.

ZooeyModeratorHe and Dakosaurus eloped to Greece where they both came out as transgendered lesbians and went into the AirBnB business. I heard.
ZooeyModeratorThis other one came up with it, and it’s well worth it, too.

ZooeyModeratorOMG.
You will not leave my mind until I hear you are okay.
ZooeyModeratorAt the risk of offending the old timers on here, I have to admit that I really like the new helmet.
It’s a banana, and you are a poopy pants.
ZooeyModeratorWho’s kicking? The Rams lost whatshisface, right? The guy who was going to nail them from 70 yards all the time, but never did.
ZooeyModerator
ZooeyModeratorNo violence or destruction since the Feds left Portland.
And…I think this entire argument is going to be eclipsed by what happens next anyway.
Between now and November, each week is going to be an Eternity. And the next thing to come – that is going to wipe out concerns about Portland – is evictions. Business failures. Covid outbreaks in the schools that think science doesn’t matter.
The next 6 months will be worse, and will dwarf what’s happened so far.
ZooeyModeratorBefore this is over Trump will have convinced the “deplorables” and those on the lower end of the brain stem that only his law and order will prevent those leftist thugs from breaking into your home, stealing your guns, raping your wife, and killing all your kids.
Why even give him that path.
Well…you give him that path because taking a stand against the police acting as unlawful executioners of black people is the RIGHT THING TO DO.
And even if the protesters all went home to deny Trump that angle, he would make up some other shit to stoke his base. It doesn’t matter. I mean…Caravan. Muslims. Socialists. Emails.
It doesn’t matter. They will make some shit up, and fire up the base.
So stick to doing what is right. Take a stand. Push back. I agree with zn anyway; I think he lost this round. He will be back, but he lost the battle in Portland to moms and vets and kids.

ZooeyModeratorMy sympathies, Waterfield. I think that’s the worst personal Covid story I’ve heard. FWIW, I wouldn’t go, either. I would probably write a heartfelt letter, though, that focuses on your friend (and not the issue of Covid). You shouldn’t miss out on the “closure,” either.
