Members Wendy Posted October 25, 2020 Members Share Posted October 25, 2020 I don't worship them. But in this election, the adage, "The enemy of my enemy..." has indeed been useful. That being said, I have no illusions in the end. But I can at least sort of respect TRUE conservatives instead of Trumpublicans, even if I disagree with them. The Lincoln GOP'ers seem to at least give the illusion that they have SOME sort of lines they won't cross. Still, I know this is a temporary truce. But as long as it accomplishes the goal, I won't complain. Too much is at stake. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted October 25, 2020 Members Share Posted October 25, 2020 Mark Meadows is like some offshoot from House of Cards...he's exactly the poisonous chief of staff that Trump deserves. Looks like Republicans are catching up in Florida early vote. Biden has a slim chance due to his support from seniors, but after this, I really hope the party can find a way to move on from Florida in Presidential years and not look back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JaneAusten Posted October 25, 2020 Members Share Posted October 25, 2020 You read that article from Politico. Whenever I read a party talking about internal polling I always wonder. But in general I agree with you. Democrats would be better off working in places like Georgia, Arizona, and boosting efforts in North Carolina going forward. And Texas, where the problem has always been low turnout. A real investment there could make a difference. Beto showed that. And it's pretty likely Beto runs for Governor there in 2022. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted October 25, 2020 Members Share Posted October 25, 2020 I take Politico with a grain of salt. It is and always will be a Republican-born Beltway gossip press which has no problem printing Trump's dirty laundry but will always - always - concern troll Dems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 25, 2020 Members Share Posted October 25, 2020 It's 2016 and 2018 that are guiding more on Florida than Politico, to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted October 25, 2020 Members Share Posted October 25, 2020 2016 I give a pass on but I am with you on 2018. I think this year is unique due to the pandemic. I don't know how the party affiliation works in Florida when they talk about dems vs goper casting ballots, but when I read The Villages had a 40% advantage for Trump in 2016 and is now dead even, I think the chances are a bit better. But honestly after 2000 I never count on Florida for anything for democrats. I personally think the state is a cesspool. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 25, 2020 Members Share Posted October 25, 2020 Black men voting has become a recent topic of conversation but seems to entirely ignore the recent group of former felons who have fought to register to vote after having fought to have their right to vote restored. I would be interested to know how their votes figure into things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted October 25, 2020 Members Share Posted October 25, 2020 Meadows is insanely stupid sometimes. That's the end of the election AFAIC (knock on wood). That's their epitaph. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
