    Just putting this out there again as people start giving speeches while we still have essentially no results

    We need a new, shorter process for our era of media saturation No debates before Jan 1, four regional Super Tuesday primaries monthly from March to June, Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, Midwest and Plains, West, and South, rotating the order every four years

    Every four years we have this conversation about how bad the Iowa caucuses are and how terrible it is that two small, unrepresentative states dominate the first months of the presidential campaign If a Dem wins in 2020, I hope they push to change it for 2024 and beyond

    Here's the problem (and I guess pleasure too) of sports I went into today's game with pretty much no rooting interest; but after 3 1/2 hours I am disappointed because my team lost

    Ah yes, Superbowl Sunday, one of our annual days where people smugly declare their ignorance and indifference toward a major cultural event The other big one is Oscar day, but also every once in a while when there is a major TV series finale

    The Iowa Caucuses work by giving an unrepresentative group of mostly-privileged people, from an unrepresentative state of mostly-white people, the ability to set the parameters for choosing our one nationally-representative office...

    Why aren't we seeing news organizations challenge Democrats with this provocative argument from , et al, that says that John Roberts can subpoena witnesses over GOP objections? It could upend the whole process

    This is wrong. I know Joe Biden doesn't want to embarrass his son, but his story, that he didn't want to tell his son what to do because of his previous problems and because his other son was dying, and he still did what was required even though it might hurt his son, is a winner

    This is a provocative argument that and the House managers and should look closely at and which the media ask them about Quickly...

    Think about how much the Republican Party’s complete & utter corruption is taken for granted: We’re not hoping that evidence of Trump’s obvious guilt will get 20 of them to remove him. We’re hoping that 4 of them will even allow that evidence *to be heard*.

    could have been a hero, to Dems for talking, or to GOPers for keeping his mouth shut Instead he plays Hamlet, tells the truth but too late for it to do any good, and becomes a world-historical villain What an as--ole.

    So, . Why not tomorrow? The info is already in the public realm. Get it on the record while the trial is still going on Bolton says he doesn't want to be seen to be holding back info to make money, so call him on it and call him in

    Finally watching , and I don't know what the details of the horrible thing will be, but it bugs me that it only happens every 90 years As a social scientist, I can assure you that no crazy sacrifice ritual would survive if it only happened every 4 generations

    Finally watched , and it was so good! Very different, but also the same in all the best ways. Some truly surprising moments and plot twists. Can't wait to see the rest,

    If you aren't sure you really know a politician, look at the people who are really sure they do know, and then ask what they are seeing that you don't They may very well be right

    You should absolutely judge a politician by the actions of their most fervent supporters

    It is a real mistake for House Managers not to go through Trump's obstruction letter in detail, rather than just talk about the documents The complete absence of any legal argument in that letter should be emphasized

    A lot of people are calling a "small country." It has 40 million people, it is one of the biggest countries in Europe, between Spain and Poland in population It is a weak country, but it is not a small country, and Russian dominance of it would be a big deal

    And whatever, college kids are an interest group, they can feel like they want more than they're getting, but Socialism is not something workers are pining for and never has been, it a utopian dream for future managers
