A majority of Baseball fans may be Northern or Californian, but a lot of baseball players have always been Southern, and there is your divide.
-
A friend who works in IT told me that Southwest was spared any upset because their computer systems are too old to have been affected!

not to be too picky/thread police-ey but I am going to suggest that when we do the FIFY thing on another poster's work (which I think is fine and usually fun), that just out of courtesy, we italicize or bold or otherwise highlight exactly what we changed so that the OP never has to clarify what he didn't say. And I know I've probably done it but I'll try to be better too.

of course she is out of her depth, she hasn't given them an exclusive interview yet. The Times has made itself irrelevant to Democrats. I think they are talking to themselves at this point.
-
If they actually drag it deliberately to milk some press and theatrical value out of it (which they should) it will be a good stroke. If he's just playing some kind of Hamlet it would be disappointing.
-
Yup, there are going to be weeks of suddenly fawning press, plus all the women who who saw Hillary defeated will be doubly charged up for Harris. It could all work if Harris can avoid mistakes for 3 months.
-
Romney's problem has never been lack of class or personal virtue, he's just stuck in a world view that's a couple of centuries out of date, so he's terrible on too much policy.
-
If you step back to a longer view what appears to be happening with the orchestrated transition to Harris in the US is quite similar to what happened in France in that people are coalescing around the need to stop an existential threat, and making the kinds of concessions to that cause that you probably wouldn't see in everyday politics.

I imagine Biden made a lot of calls before he put out that letter. Someone suggested that they could get it all orchestrated in advance and I remember saying I was skeptical that could happen without more leaking. Maybe the Dems are more disciplined than we give them credit for.

And I haven't even sent mine in yet....

Wait, what? I thought he wasn't going to debate. The Winds be tricksy around the GOP encampments today.

2024 Trade Deadline Rumors and Discussion
gehringer_2 replied to LongLiveMaroth's topic in Detroit Tigers
If Harris accepted Spencer for Skubal he should be shot out of a cannon to manage an independent league team. 23 in AA striking out >30% of the time and no particular power? Really? He's basically Parker Meadows. I love Parker but I wouldn't trade Skubal for him. -
How hard can the GOP work the border issue in the face of the GOP refusal to move reform? The issue was already playing badly for them after the bill failed.
-
Costa misspelled "Republican"
-
gee, I don't find it funny at all.
-
But it's Trump, he doesn't believe he can lose at anything.
-
I have no idea what the polls will do with this, but Trump will get a lot of pressure from the GOP to change his mind if the GOP does find itself losing ground now.
-
If they have a sense of theater and he is going to be a team player, he puts her name in nomination at the convention.
-
The one other thing for Harris is that she has to work on being more the 'Happy Warrior.' Americans don't like to vote for dour people and Kamala can tend in that direction.
-
Yup.
-
That was why Hillary kept Bill sort of at a distance, though I'm not sure that in her case the idea that it would be Bill's 3rd term might not have helped her overall....

Hurter has just given up 6 in 3 IP.

another ridiculous game for McGoniClark: on base 7 times, 4 RBI, 4 runs scored.

Out of likes but this is an excellent point.
