I probably would've voted for Nixon if I was still in NY, but her campaign made a number of mistakes and I am so, so, so tired of the angry white progressive journos whining and gnashing their teeth on Twitter every time their guy/girl loses and making it an all or nothing proposition.

 

Yes, Cuomo sucks.

Yes, I would've voted for Nixon.

Yes, she made major mistakes.

And yes, the will of the actual public has to be acknowledged and not condescended to or blamed. You don't get to blame Democratic voters for actually coming out and voting Democratic.

 

Meanwhile:

It's like what we always say about voters, especially those on the left and far-left, engaging in some ridiculous "purity Olympics" (tm @marceline?).  No candidate, I have learned, will ever be perfect.  But picking off every candidate with even the slightest flaw is what got us where we are now w/ Trump.

The Intercept world always seems to focus on the most contrived conspiracies - I saw that someone who works with them was saying that Sean Patrick Maloney ran for NY AG to block Zephyr Teachout and how his Congressional district is now "likely R" because he quit.

Ronan Strikes Again - at Kavanaugh.

 

 

Just this will not be enough to stop Kavanaugh - the GOP will go for a 'boys will be boys' spin which, even if the media hammers them, will not stop their vote. The only thing that can stop him is if there's a lot more, or if the pressure on Murkowski and Collins gets even more intense (voters have been on them, to their credit).

 

Meanwhile, in Manafort news:

She's hated by the extreme left.  She's going to win overwhelmingly in California BUT

 

This reeks of Anita Hill and I am old enough to be glued to the TV with my mom and hating her treatment by the white male dais. Why I can't ever vote for Biden(my vote in 2008/2012 was 1000% for Obama)

 

I would like to know exactly why she held onto this other than to protect the author.

    • I have a very different view of Dano. For one thing, she like me, loves her little dogs. Another thing, of course she is effusive, outgoing but she is also very vulnerable & she used to have her Frank, her mother & Vivian who officially was her publicist (I think) but she was so much more. Now, they are all gone. Well, except for her always having a pair of her little dogs. But, if I were going to think in your terms, what I would think is "cool aunt". Because this lady is really one cool dame. Here is one of my favorite views of her https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGecq8rJS4w/

    • I found it to be a rather odd way to deal with a character departing for parts unknown.
    • Today reminded me as to why I’m a little disappointed in the name that the new Pope chose

      Luckily, EJ and Johnny, and pretty much every other character saved today’s episode.  I didn’t expect Javi to be the one to save Sarah though, and I don’t mind it at all, because if it means that Javi is finally going to get his own identity/character, away from his douchy bf, I’m all for it. Javi’s scenes would’ve been a lot better had it not been for him. EJ and Johnny were the best part of today. Their conversation hit a lot of important beats and I’m so looking forward to seeing them play out. And now that EJ knows that Johnny is going to work for Xander, that opens up another dynamic to their storyline and to the Kiriakis family storylines as well. Tying them all together could be really good. There are so many story possibilities that can come out of this. And I thought Carson Boatman did a pretty good job again too.  I also liked that Johnny was there to comfort Chanel after everything that happened with Sarah. They’re so good together. But I do have mixed feelings about Chanel possibly forgiving Johnny so quickly. Hopefully, the question that she asked him at the end of today leads to more conflict for the two of them.  And yeah, still no changes in Alex’s character lol 
    • Awesome, thanks so much for taking the time to grab this episode. I had a quick review of your rip because I was curious why it was 700MB and 30 minutes. The first 10 minutes of the episode is 3169 (opening credits at 5 minutes and again at 15 minutes). I thought we had the full HD version of ep.3170 on the YouTube channel, but it appears they added the wrong episode but labelled it 3170. 
    • I guess, according to Mike Manning in the Michael Fairman chat, he was almost Derek

    • I imagine Brad will blow through all the money in a year and come crawling back, just as Portia warned him not to.
