How many times did you mock the water main break again?

Oh sorry I gotta do my usual caveat

I missing winning in GA where we are installed into power

I don't recall water main breaking in the 2021 runoff or the 2022 election.

I do recall Trump saying he was glad we lost the runoff.

America first, and all that jazz

Not for nothing, but yeah Trump calling for folks to not show to the runoff was a bad call. Maybe the worst.

I don't believe it had a huge effect, but any effect would have helped as it was within reach. Run offs usually favor Pubs here.

Both candidates did worse in the runoff than they did in the main
 
Y'all know the water main thang, the thousands of dead voters thang, the passing around the USB drive like vials of crack thang have all been thoroughly debunked

it would be honorable to acknowledge that and give up the fictitious narratives...no matter how cherished

very poorly chosen one lost

he lost in georgia

he lost in the country

that's it

I know folks that are friends with one of the candidates (probably the best candidate) outside of the election, and The Dems worked hard to get Hershel nominated. They knew the dirt and interviews would sink him.

Which was contrary to what the in person reception was for Walker. Folks said his in person stops were compelling.

I'm not sure I'd come in here white knighting for Fulton County if I was you.
 
and now we keep indicting very poorly chosen one in hopes of boosting him with the base...a really sly variety of election interference

this is unquestionably what they are doing... they did it in 2022... and are doing it now.

brilliant strategy but save me the "threats to democracy" cries later

I already forgot about the threat to democracy cries.

Was that before everyone was a white supremacist or after?

I don't think this can be gamed as some sort of strategic choice. The Supreme Court overruled a very poor precedent (none other than Justice Ginsburg has commented on the sweeping overreach embodied in Roe v Wade) and returned the matter to the political arena, where it belongs. There are some very socially conservative states that will have strict anti-abortion laws. But that's not where most of the country is (including quite a few red states). The places where it will remain as an issue are those where referenda are not available as a tool for settling the matter. In those cases there could be a divergence between what the political system produces and what most of the voters want and it will remain a contentious issue. In most of the country it will get settled and we will move on.

It could also be that abortion will remain an issue in national politics long after it has been settled in most states. But I suspect the Republicans will eventually adopt a politically neutral federalist position on this. Abortion is bad but should be left as a matter for states to sort out. Ditto for the Democrats. What's interesting though is that there is a strong faction in both parties that want it to be a federal issue. I don't think they will prevail but it is not out of the realm of possibility that it will remain a potent national issue after most states have settled the matter.

Abortion will remain forever until the left can pack the Supreme Court like they want to.

The left wants to nationalize it.

The right wants to make it a states issue.

Step 1: Use millions of DNC money to prop up threats to democracy
Step 2: After successfully propping them up, cry about how they are threats to democracy

The Democratic Party is so incredibly lucky to have the voters they do. Similarly... Trump is so incredibly lucky to have the voters he does. Unfortunately for him, he's got so many less glasses of water supporters than the Ds

Several presidential candidates are out there campaigning on a national ban of some sort.

interesting to see y'all come around to my often expressed view that very poorly chosen one is a secret agent of the left...the gift that keeps on giving
