I don't see how they are any less electable than their ol' man, but I try to avoid seeing them as much as possible so I don't know them too well.  If Trump can win then I don't see why Don Jr. couldn't.

Yeah, lets go back to the wonderful days of the industrial revolution when there were no government regulations to protect citizens from exploitation at the hands of powerful corporations.

Everyone had it so good back then.

Either way, it's the most 3rd party yellow an EC map has seen since George Wallace won a shameful number of states back in the "good ol days."

It's arguable that he only started seriously thinking about running in the first place because Obama nationally embarrassed him so badly at the correspondent's dinner in '11.

I 100% agree with you.  You could see it on his face, he wanted to destroy everything Obama accomplished.

Quote:If they take their W and just do their thing, you're probably right. But the more they make their policies/actions an attack against him/his presidency, I don't think he'll be able to resist. Guy's got thin skin.

I agree here as well.  I think with how close the election is, coupled with the major letdown of their Senate campaigns, it would be in the Dems best interest to play it humble.  

I did hear a rumor that Biden will have Gillibrand in his cabinet and the Cuomo will appoint AOC to her vacant seat.  That would be counterproductive to the above.  But this is probably just unfounded rumor.

Once we get a vaccine...and it is close...I expect things to rebound quickly.

I mean more like actually being fiscally conservative and not manufacturing a bunch of fake economic booms and saddling our children's children with massive debt.  Saying libertarians want to go back to pre-industrial revolution is like saying republicans want to force us to be Christian and democrats are gonna take all our guns.

I will say though that the sooner the average voter starts to demonize and fear the libertarian party the clearer it will be that they've made it into the limelight.

Give us the inside scoop on your state. 

We went blue all of the sudden. Pretty much down-ballot. Two main reasons: Trump slamming John McCain so much (especially after he died) and Martha McSally's offensive attack adds against Mark Kelly. Most folks don't like that kinda stuff out here.

[Millhouse]

So if Biden takes Nevada, Arizona, and Michigan, the 3 he currently has slight leads in, he wins, correct?

Fingers crossed.

SHOCKER: Trump's suing PA now too.

Yes. Those 3 give him 270 exactly.

Yes.  PA won't matter.

Ida know...if it is 270 to 268 compared to what....290 to 248 I'd say it matters.  In theory it shouldn't but you know...Trump.

Thanks. When Arizona went Blue I said they Dems can thank Cindy McCain. 

Didn't know about the McSally ads,

My new hope is that PA is irrelevant.

How did Cindy get Trump to act like such an asshole toward her dad?

The Republicans can thank the Donald for turning Arizona blue.

I think that would be close enough for an electoral recount.

Thank god our prez is fighting to stop counting the votes of the American people. He is so patriotic.

On another note I heard Portland has a bunch of babies strung up ready to murder them if they call it for Biden. Probably like that in a bunch of other lib cities too.

That's close enough for a normal president, for Trump he's gonna want California recounted.
