Joe Biden just swamped the South Carolina primary and got himself back in the game with a resounding win as the Super Tuesday with 14 states looms on the horizon.
Go Joe Go!
Talaniman: Joe is the man for POTUS for you?
The guy who actually thought we had 150 million gun deaths since 2007. It was more, he said, than all the wars combined. Not exactly reassuring.
ANYBODY but the dufus fellows!
I want a repeat of the 1924 Dem convention (without the KKK)
I sure don't want a repeat of 1972! Probably wouldn't have made a difference despite Tricky having issues.
you mean where the rogue extreme candidate won the nomination against the stale establishment candidate ?
Mayor Pete dropped out That's 2 gone in the last 2 days .
Mitch and Bernie will get along fabulously. Especially if a SCOTUS seat comes up and whatever judges needs filling. Primary ain't over yet and like I say the dem nominee gets my vote and I ain't gonna hold my nose either. I'm a realist though whatever the outcome I'll have my own plan that has always worked best for me, and mine.
You know how these things go Tom, hope for the best, plan for the worst! Go Joe Go!
coming in on a wing and a prayer, eh! Tal?Quote:

In fact one of those businesses was raided by the FBI last month .Bet you didn't hear that on the Sunday morning news shows today . James it turns out leveraged Biden's name to attract international clients to drive up the value of two rural hospitals merger . He also used Joe's name to downplay legal ramifications .

“Jim [Biden] told me. Don’t worry every time someone threatens to sue you you’re with us now nobody is gonna touch you.” According to the lawsuit, “It was Frey’s understanding that Lewitt was implying that DMM [Diverse Medical Management] was 'protected' because of Jim Biden’s connections.”
This is just one of many examples where Jim Biden used quid pro Joe's influence to cash in . This isn't even the most famous example ….just the most recent one.
So what we have here is another demonrat crime family?

Lot of money over here Clete, and it can corrupt. Money is a helluva corruptor.
if you are a Republican and any of the primaries tomorrow are open primaries then you must voted for Biden or even better Nanny Bloomy on the Democratic ballot instead of voting for the unopposed Trump on the Republican ballot .The goal here is to force a brokered convention Why not ? The Democrat do that when their candidate is unopposed like the emperor was in 2012 . If the political parties are stupid enough to have open primaries then they deserve what they get .
Tomder55: Have to ask you: Where did you get "Nanny Bloomberg"? I love it and it really fits him to a tee but where did you get it? I don't know if I have ever seen a candidate with less charisma than Bloomberg...well, maybe, Michael Dukakis, but Bloomberg is purely rancid!
I have to take credit for it . I saw him up close in action in NYC where he dictated soda size ,plastic straws ;keeping restaurants from having salt shakers on tables . This is not the stuff that Mayors should obsess over . I heard the phrase nanny state and put the two together . He reminds me of this quote from CS Lewis .
Quote:
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
tomder55: Wow! Pretty awesome thought there! Bloomberg is an overbearing arsehole....and I don't know him personally...but it seeps from his persona: Kind of person you could be around and then want to hurry home and immediately take a shower.
Oh, and believe me: He wasn't doing any of that soft drink or straw stuff for "the public good": You can bet the bastard had some kind of monetary link to those initiatives.
He has bounced from right to left with his eccentric policies, but he's really rich, so he can do whatever he wants just as the dufus does, so why is that such a big deal with Bloomy? I guess it comes down to if he is your favorite rich guy bully and who he bullies along the way.
The big question tomorrow is does he even get a delegate ? Styer spent $200 million before he gave up and he is going to spend as much again trying to turn the Senate .
Khlobushar just dropped out of the race. The winnowing continues

yes quite a coincidence the days before Super Tuesday . I see the invisible hand of the emperor in this .He is not the emperor's 1st choice ;but Warren is not going anywhere .
Bold prediction Biden and Sanders comes out close to even after tomorrow . The deal for the extreme base is not to add Warren or Sanders on the Biden ticket . Instead I believe Biden gets the nod and he nominates Kamala Harris as his Veep . That balances the ticket in a number of ways .
Desperate move to make sure that Sanders is NOT the nominee.
Chris Matthews just got purged from MSNBC . Here is his finest hour
https://www.mediaite.com/election-20...-won-cold-war/
turns out he had his own woke moment that was revealed Friday in GQ https://www.gq.com/story/chris-matthews-experience
I'll wait and see what the voters say tommorrow and go from there. Realistically I didn't see much of a path to victory for those that dropped out. Bloomy for all the money isn't showing much, nor is Warren at this point who is as smart and qualified, and experienced as any. Of course the establishment rallies around the centrist establishment candidate, as long as that establishment candidate performs to expectations.
I'm not counting Bernie out by any means but politics is politics!
Chris Mathews just retired! Talk about an era ending event!
I tell you what: If that grabby Uncle Joe tries to play touchy-touchy with Kamala Harris, he is going to get slapped! And she won't care whose is looking!
At the top of "Hardball," Chris briefly announced his retirement and left the studio. Totally unexpected by the network staff! I've never seen Steve Kornacki rattled before.Quote:

Talaniman: Another case of a big corporation "Using Up" and asset and disposing of him, like so much garbage...using the excuse that he alluded that Bernie Sanders may be a closet communist: The Thought Police are hard at it today, working tirelessly to make sure that you color inside the lines and toe the line! The slime balls he worked for didn't try to defend him at all...instead, they threw him to the wolves....I might not agree with most of what Matthews said or even believes but I sure as hell don't like how they treated him, either.
Uncle Joe threw down the gauntlet :
"Talk is cheap, false promises are deceptive, and talk of revolution isn't changing anyone's life."
Vac, Mathews left with an apology and warning, watch your mouth. He had his day and a long good career, and is gone. No doubt compensated richly, so I got no grief with his leaving. The question now can Bernie rally his troops against the establishment and can Biden take advantage of the bump he got in SC, and moderates dropping out, and supporting him. The early, and absentee votes though predate the Biden surge, and could be CRUCIAL for Bernie.
It's on for sure!
YEP! That's how it's going to go from here.Quote:

Everything humans do has flaws in it, but do we throw the baby out with the bath water? Early voting is a great convenience for many people, especially working people so maybe such a big field played into that too!
Evidently Matthews had committed the now unpardonable sin of complimenting women on their physical appearance. Men who commit such a heinous act are now expected to grovel and pay penance to the god of womanhood.
jlisenbe: I hope my "day of reckoning" is gracious: I grew up when whistling at women was EXPECTED: if you didn't look and whistle, people thought something was wrong with you: mind you, you didn't do this to the women around where you grew up...but when you went to town, all bets were off!
tal early voting is a horrible idea. Many people voted over 2 weeks ago when the field was crowded . I gots a secret for you . The early vote is not even counted unless the ballots taken on voting day are indecisive .
talk is indeed cheap and getting cheaper by the day, except for bloomyQuote:
