That's it. Nothing more from that docket.

On second thought... 😉

I deserve that...

He's talking popular vote, which he lost. Electoral vote, yes, he won. Depends on one's viewpoint of the electoral college.

Plus he has an immovable contract...

I'm good with that... Now... How about Chiarot? 😉

Maybe... Yeah... maybe Stewart could've reached that contingent. And the 3rd party voters too, with a "Don't be stupid" message...

Probably a huge amount of Independents... But that wasn't so important in 2016... The angst would have overridden that and still gone for Trump, I think... But in 2020: muy importante. I believe. Because Indies NEED to be stripped from Trump. Regardless whether left or right leaning...

If I were a fly on a wall... I'd be laughing so hard they would hear me...

"New Hampshire Republicans" sounds pretty explicit to me. The other thing that popped out was a poll on Trump versus Haley voters last night. Trump Voters: How many of you would refuse to vote for the other candidate if they were the nominee? 77% Haley Voters: How many of you would refuse to vote for the other candidate if they were the nominee? 88% That tells me: Trump's voters are pretty locked in. And... Haley's voters, which in NH would be Never-Trumpers, Establishment Republicans, along with a huge smattering of Independents, and I am guessing Indy's both who lean right and who lean left... are ALSO locked in... against Trump. The two sides of the current state of Republicans are hardening their positions (Pro and Anti-Trump... or Pro/Anti-MAGA). That was the most heartening thing I saw last night.

The key question there is not on Sutton or Vildor... it's: "Can Kerby & Melifonwu bait Purdy into throwing a couple INT's?" But I guess that falls back on a related question: "How often will AG leave Sutton and/or Vildor on on island...?"

The longer she can stay in... The more chances the loser starts sinking into his own cesspool. He's already there... but if voters keep running away from his stench and towards Haley... She could still apply the knockout punch and deny him even the nomination. I'm not pinning any hopes on that... And it's not even close to that at the moment... But his stench has already risen to a certain level: not quite half of Republican voters or Republican-leaning Independents voted NOT for him. (This was true in Iowa, not just NH...). Just a little more stench, and more heading for the Exits away from Trump would work. I would kill for him to lose the nomination itself.

They like Kelvin Sheppard... A lot. DC has already talked about him as a future coordinator.

Lovely.

She better NOT go back on that... EVER.

Better than the polls, which had her at 18% down. 9% down right now... It's enough for me to actually be heartened...

Fever Dream: Trump on the phone right now... Telling MAGA "screw the Republicans, we'll form our OWN party. Let's call it the TRUMP Party! The ME Party? MAGA?"

Different donors. DeSantis donors: "Please give us Trump without the baggage." Haley donors: "I will NOT vote MAGA 3 times in a row. I am NEVER TRUMP, Haley please show us something please."

She'll get her donors and support. After tonight... there'll be a huge swing in money towards her and away from Trump. Plus some voices. Book it.

It's an ATROCIOUS win by Trump. If he gains the nomination, he's dead in the water in the General. I think Biden has nothing to worry about except for something outrageous. And I don't see it. A wipe out of Trump in the General may finally wipe out the political power of MAGA.

South Carolina be damned... She MUST stay in until at least Super Tuesday. And... while she's down a lot (in polls) in South Carolina... She has lots of time to tour the state drumming up support. She has to make a huge effort there... But I wanna see her get through Super Tuesday... At least. If not more than that.

Yes... This too.

The Charismatic ruler broke down the walls, died, AND started Venezuela on the road to driving things into the ground. Maduro finished the job... but Chavez definitely started it... in a huge way...

If it's the NFC Championship and it's our last chance at salvaging a win then... I WANT DC to do that and I believe he SHOULD do that... IMO.

Yeah... This is probably what I was thinking of... Because you're correct, you don't want your QB or anyone else injured by playing stupid games with unsaid rules (although I've seen a few V-formations busted which... also pissed everyone off...). But I think a fake "concede" is much more akin to a fake spike. All a fake concede would do is trick to claim more seconds to try a last gasp win in a critical game. It might piss everyone off but no one is in danger of an injury since it's not an actual play. I mean, a fake spike is an actual play... but I think much less egregious than the fake kneel-down. I would put a fake "concede" into the same boat as a fake "spike"... IMO. Gamesmanship.
