2024 Elections

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Yeah, but they were all right when they worked for Oprah as regulars on her show. They became intolerable when they went off and thought they were Oprah.

Best speaker selection and best speakers I've ever seen at a convention. I dunno who wrote the speeches coached the speakers, but everybody was excellent in content and delivery.

Thanks.
... Only 23% of Democrats support Israel's incursion in Gaza against Hamas, according to a recent Gallup poll.

But with the exception of a couple of delegates that interrupted the Democratic convention's proceedings Monday night, it was Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez − a vocal critic of the Israeli government− who called for the release of the hostages and a cease-fire in the same breath....

"I have confidence in Vice President Harris, to put my son's life in her hands," Dekel-Chen said, adding that he's found all of the members of the Biden administration deserving of their trust....

Dekel-Chen added: "What I can say is that all of the decision makers in the Democratic Party, all of the elected officials, that I've come in contact with and I've come in contact with many dozens, if not hundreds of, congresspeople and senators, from the Democratic Party have completely embraced us."...

I'm sorry for the families of the hostages, but when they say "nobody can imagine how awful...", I can't help but think I bet the families of the 20,000 killed by Israeli vengeance can imagine,

You were up against Nancy Pelosi:


You, and Kelly, never had a chance ;)
So was Biden. Guess he never had a chance also.

Thx Nancy.

Nancy Pelosi is a villain in Biden's inner circle — and a hero to the rest of the Democratic Party

:D None. She sure hit a home run with Walz. Maybe Kelly would have been as good, but couldn't have been better.
Unrealistic expectations. Joe and the Party would not have survived a second debate fail.

Conspiracy theory: This was "former" Speaker Nancy's scheme ever since Joe picked Kamala, if not sooner. Run out the clock so Kamala was the only alternative, roofie Joe before the debate, easy-peasy. Bay Area homey chicks stick together :twisted:

Ted Cruz or Collin Allred for Senate? Here’s what these Texas voters said in new poll

... A University of Houston Hobby School and Texas Southern University Jordan-Leland School poll released Thursday found that 46.6% of likely Texas voters plan to vote for Cruz, while 44.5% said they’d vote for Allred — putting Cruz 2.1 points ahead. Of those polled, 2.5% said they were voting for Libertarian Ted Brown and 6.4% said they’re undecided.

The poll surveyed 1,365 likely Texas voters between between Aug. 5 and Aug 16. The poll has a 2.65 percentage point margin of error....

Cruz was last up for reelection in 2018 when he won against former El Paso U.S. Rep. Beto O’Rourke by 2.6 points.
Wow, that's close. Do we dare get our hopes up?

Meanwhile,
2024 Texas: Trump vs. Biden vs. Kennedy vs. West vs. Stein
RCP Average 1/13 - 7/1
Trump (R) 46.0
Biden (D) 36.8
Kennedy (I) 6.5
Stein (G) 1.8
West (I) 1.3
spread Trump +9.2

Or

2024 Texas General Election: Trump vs Biden
RCP Average 3/18 - 7/1
Trump (R) 50.0
Biden (D) 40.8
spread Trump +9.2

:roll: I keep waiting for Texas' predicted blue shift :think:

The Texas electorate is shifting, but not very quickly.

Don't hold your breath.
