North Carolina is always just out of range, aside from 2008, so I have a feeling we'll end up back there. Sometimes I wonder if they should put money elsewhere but when it's that close I can see why they are torn.

Nevada is the one where I am most torn because it was stubbornly against Biden for months of polling and is difficult to poll. Maybe they just needed fresh blood (and as much as efforts will be made to tie Harris to Biden's record, she is seen as fresh blood in many ways). I hope so.

Some of the media and the GOP have been trying to turn the Arlington PR stunt gone wrong (the tiktok they made of it is stomach-churning - for the sake of any hope I have for this country's future I hope it isn't effective) around on Harris, even though she has said nothing about the matter. This may be the most blatant example yet. I would rarely suggest you watch the Ozempic king in action (and if you don't have Twitter you probably can't anyway) but you can see here just how much he is consumed by hatred and misogyny, and clearly rattled at just what a bad position he is in (especially now that he is fourth or fifth in his own campaign structure below Trump, the Trump family, the whale decapitator and Cruella).

I think we will take both NC and GA (again). We've been up in NC in some other polling recently. It's tight but I suspect it happens. Nevada, I think it's possible.

The media has scrambled to try to tamp down the Arlington mess for Trump but I don't think it's going to work.

I appreciate you referring to RFK as 'the whale decapitator'. What a tale that was.

And we especially need a Democratic Congress in addition to Harris getting in the White House because the right-wingers in the SCOTUS are currently scuttling common sense proposals from the Biden/Harris administration like allowing undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens who are in good standing a pathway to citizenship and student loan debt forgiveness. SCOTUS is in effect, blocking millions of people from getting a chance for a fresh start in life and the only way around them is to vote these programs into laws that focus on reform.

It’s a miracle that this even got through.

After so many talking heads were dismissive of Biden’s and Harris’ talk of price gouging being a problem, Kroger admits to doing just that.

Say whatever you like about Tim Walz and his (not exaggerated) military record, but you'd never catch him creating a national incident at our nation's most revered burial place for veterans!
