  1. Yeah I think the free-for-all is probably the only way we could do it this year. I wouldn't have time to commit to a team but I can definitely make some picks here and there. Happy to complete the Tank for Tua. :D


  2. Ya but if Trump says go back to work, we go back to work, and the virus spikes again...that costs him the election, doesn't it? I know an overwhelming majority of Trump's supporters will vote for him no matter what he does, but I still think this is something that leaves him vulnerable. This isn't rhetoric or political; this is actual people dying. And there's no plausible way he can blame it on anyone.

    I agree. Have any thoughts about Biden's running mate? I was thinking probably somebody more in Bernie's realm. Need a VP that can attract the progressives and young people. Warren?

    Someone like Warren makes sense to throw the progressive wing a bone, but I think Biden will pick someone a little closer to center. He could always give Warren something like Secretary of Education.


  4. If we're going to use that kind of logic, let's envision a Trump vs. Sanders election. All the GOP has to do is run ad after ad with Sanders describing himself as a Socialist. The election is over.

    Sean, you need to come to grips with the fact that the far-left pact of the Democratic Party is a much smaller portion of our electorate than it seems. Because they are by far the most vocal on social media, it has been easy to envision the Democrats taking a big step to the left this election cycle. But there are far more blue-blood, moderate, centrist Democrats who flocked to candidates like Biden, Klobuchar, Buttigieg, and Bloomberg. And the votes prove it.


  5. The Bernie bros are much more like Trump than they realize, Thanny.

    And F4E called it: Bernie's coalition wasn't as strong as it appeared in 2016; it was just that plenty of Democrats could see Hillary sucked. Too bad the DNC couldn't.

    I would call Trump the favorite for sure, but Biden has much more of a chance than a self-described 79-year-old socialist who recently had a heart attack, fair or not.

    Tulsi needs to drop out. Needed to a long time ago. She has no path and hasn't had any for awhile. When Yang didn't have a path, he left, as he should have. Tulsi is not going to be allowed on the debate stage, nor should she, she's not a serious contender at this point. Just because someone refuses to face reality doesn't really mean they are still a candidate. I like Tulsi, quite a bit, but she has no business to still be running for the nomination.

    Needs to be just Bernie and Biden and let them go at each other.

    Agree with every word of this.


  7. Depends what you mean by "stolen." If nobody gets a majority of delegates and it goes to a contested convention, that sucks, but them's the rules. If the DNC pulls out the obvious corruption like they did in 2016, the party will fracture, Trump will win re-election in a cakewalk, and the Democrats will deserve every bit of it.


  8. Obviously that depends on Biden's performance in two days. If he wins a state or two but it's a Sanders sweep, otherwise, I agree that he's in trouble. But in his favor he has all of the anti-Sanders Democratic donors, who will want to coalesce around one candidate post-Super Tuesday. It's obvious now Biden is that candidate.
