  1. Last time it was 62-37 in 2020 and 66-34 in 2024. So a nice swing our way so far.
  2. Not looking great for that so far.
  3. RFK Jr dominating Rush County, Indiana so far. Is that...a mistake? Trump with 1% of the vote with 36% of the vote in. Is this another Pat Buchanan situation? Edit: Ok reporting fuckup. Knew it was too funny to be true.
  4. So far Harris +1 with 65% counted. Is that good?
  5. So far seeing a leftward shift in all the votes reported in Indiana so far. Does that mean anything?
  6. We'll see. Hard to do what Trump did without the power of celebrity.
  7. The 1980s broke the leftism of the Democratic Party. We are currently slowly walking it back to where it was in the 1970s. But that is on economic issues. On social issues, of course they are more progressive today. And that is also where the Republicans go after them and try to stir up panic.
  8. Well you will get no argument from me. I was just saying they have shifted leftwards on those issues from where they had been. But to the Republican media machine these are dangerous radical left policies.
  9. Yeah. I kind of got it in 2016 and 2020. Now I just have to accept people want fascism and coup attempts.
  10. I can think of some. LGBTQ+ stuff like allowing gay marriage and being nice to trans people. Abandoning free trade to an extent and going back to aiding Unions...to an extent. Trying to raise the national minimum wage. Doing some things to fight climate change. Stuff like that. All things that I like and I support but I guess if you are a 1990s type Democrat who wants big crime bills, free trade bills, and cozying up to big business you might be annoyed.
  11. Then why did you start this conversation? Just to purposely take it nowhere? That is BS anyway. I thought I was addressing your points fairly.
  12. I didn't mean to say that you had said that. Just that this is the second time I have heard that and I was checking my sanity.
  13. Kamala has not, to the best of my knowledge, mentioned being a woman or a minority to any significant degree. Supposedly because Obama told her that she doesn't have to. It speaks for itself and bringing it up will make it sound like you are trying to shove it down people's throats.
  14. It seems pretty obvious from that, that the parties have shifted with the voters. and:
  15. I think it is a vibes thing. Sure the Democrats sent a dude from the 1970s into office in 2020, but it just feels more radical.
  16. I don't see the evidence for Kamala giving up on rural voters anyway. I have seen several pitches to them during her campaign by both Kamala and Walz. But this is the second time I have heard this nonsense about Kamala going all in on women and ignoring everybody else. I haven't seen a single speech or campaign event she has done that was specifically for women only while I have seen several directed to rural voters.
  17. The last ten years? Obama was as centrist as you can get. I feel like the center was firmly and passionately rejected in 2016, in both parties with centrist Republicans being 'RINOs' and centrist Dems being "Corporate Democrats". Ultimately if the voters want things to be more centrist than they need to stop fucking sitting out the primaries because centrist candidates typically get annihilated in those. The fact that nobody shows up to the Primary elections and then bitches about the candidates it produces never ceases to enrage me. Look in the damn mirror people, that is the problem. If you don't show up, you don't matter. And if you make your views not matter, then they wont.
  18. I'm not. Because that would require that somebody accept the mainstream view of cause and effect and also be crazy enough to kill somebody over this election. They will blame government lasers or some shit.
  19. After several pages of random tweets and incomprehensible charts we have determined that we don't know shit about fuck.
  20. Why would I freak out? If that holds, we win. Granted I would rather we win by more.
