I voted for Pat Buchanon in 2000. I had zero interest in politics at the time and wanted to vote for an odd ball.
-
That is why he won. I don't know if Biden could have won. The ordering just makes more sense.
-
Maybe a younger Biden should have been President in 2008 and a more experienced Obama in 2016.

If it happens , it would be economic. If there is a way to monetize this, the corporations will do it. Some of them have already begun to market themselves as being against the decision. While I think that the corporate elite has more power than politicians, they are usually led by old white guys who don't care about abortion. That is a problem, but if they can make money...
-
I think the big corporations will ultimately decide how far individual states go with this. They always do.
-
THEY have to be convinced. They did come out to vote in 2020. That was easy though. Trump was so obviously terrible that you'd have to be blind and deaf not to see it. They didn't vote because they thought Biden would be a good leader.
-
They have to be convinced that their consequences will be better with Democratic leaders.
-
But banning abortion doesn't hurt the people that want it. Eliminating Medicare and Social Security hurts everybody except for a small percentage of wealthy people.
-
If any of the Trumps had not been involved in an abortion, it would be big news.
-
They've been saying that Medicare and social security would be eliminated my whole life. You can't really sell it to anyone because everyone pays into it and pretty much everyone benefits. I can see them chipping away at it at a slow pace so most people don't notice. Overturning Roe was a pretty easy sell to the brain washed MAGA base which the Supreme Court represents.
-
You sound old!
-
They didn't want to do much becausde the Democratic center is not progressive and this is why young people don't vote.
-
I worry about social security and medicare, but I think eliminating them is going to be a really hard sell to the old white guy base. I suppose they could grandfather in the old white guys and eliminate it for the yet to be retired people.
-
We want more people voting Democrat. We just don't think candidates are entitled to votes. If people aren't voting, the onus is on the candidates to make themselves more appealing.

Javy Baez OPS by month March/April .852 May .727 June .795 July .873 August .728 September .721

The clintons suck, but I voted for her because she wasn't Trump.
-
I don't know. It seems to be getting worse!
-
What if they vote Republican?
-
I didn't vote when I was young either because all the politicians came across as phonies who only cared about themselves. I still think that, but as I got older and less idealistic, I decided to vote more and chose the politicians that pretended to care about the things I care about.
-
If they got more votes, they could have had more of a majority and passed it. Do you think young people are inspired by any of the old out of touch Democrats? AOC is the only one with a pulse. I saw her protesting today and she is the only congress person that could pull it off without looking awkward.
-
They could sing God Bless America on the Capitol steps. God, our politicians are so weak. That is why people don't vote.
-
Who cares what Spencer Turnbull thinks? He was born in Bama, was probably a pampered sports hero his entire life and has a Bible verse on his twitter profile. There was no chance he was going to be anything but what he is. I just hope he can come back and be a good pitcher again next year.
-
Shortstop looks like the best position again. If they want to make a big splash, they can move Baez to second and sign a shortstop. That would require spening even more money than they did on Baez though, so it problay won't happen.
-
They need all of them. As seen this year, you can never ever have too much pitching.
