    It does when you try to wholesale them.

    Puerto Rico and Washington DC seems the most likely, immediate and most sensible to me at the moment.
    At the least there should be North DC and South DC. If there can be two Dakotas there can be two DCs.

    Another idea is to hold the other territories as leverage. Statehood for DC and PR regardless.

    You oppose Medicare for All? We add Guam.

    Oppose a cap gains tax increase? Welcome to statehood, Virgin Islands!

    Probably is too late. If they couldn't get anything done in 2009 I'm not confident they'll be any less inept in 2021.

    Might be even more lopsided since Maine is bluer.

    Same Quinnipiac poll has Biden only down 6 points in SC with Graham and Harrison tied

    Also has Biden winning Maine's 2nd district by 9 points which is more important than people think.

    Pretty much what I said several weeks ago. McGrath ed herself in the primary and has no shot against Cocaine Mitch, but the South Carolina race isn't outside the realm of possibilities.

    Jesus, outside of the actual poll vs. Graham, Harrison's overall numbers are amazing for a Dem senate candidate in South Carolina.

    +13 favorable rating (-5 for Graham)
    +24 honesty rating (-9 for Graham)
    +30 rating on whether he "cares for average people" (-3 for Graham)

    Surprised he's not winning the race with that likability, probably a case of votingrepublican.jpeg

    Graham: "why won't my opponent release his tax returns, what is he hiding"

    Harrison: (releases returns)
    Harrison: "Done, now do Trump"

    More likely:

    im sure he's a good guy, but he hasn't shown me that he overturning Roe v. Wade is his #1 priority above all else, so I can't even consider him even though his opponent is undeniably a piece of

    I thought you were joking, didn't realize this actually happened



    Graham wouldn't have tried that stunt if he thought this race was in the bag. Repressed Lindsey is still the favorite but Harrison definitely has more than a puncher's chance.

    Demographics just haven't shifted in Kentucky the way they are in South Carolina, and McGrath is a bad candidate. She couldn't win the 2nd bluest district in Kentucky in a waive midterm year, but somehow Schumer pegged her as the one who was going to win a statewide race?

    Kentucky needs a well liked charismatic black candidate (i.e., Jaime Harrison) running as a Dem to make their senate race compe ive.

    Damn, almost like he baited Graham into that.

    If not for voter suppression in Louisville they'd probably have one now.

    Right, a state that is 87% White needs a black representative.

    If we're being honest that wasn't just voter suppression, it was the Democrat Party fighting tooth and nail to stop a well-liked progressive from winning a primary against one of their milquetoast corporatists-in-training. The amount of money the Democratic Party dumped into primary contests this year was a joke. The money that was dumped into Richie Neal's campaign alone was several million dollars that could be getting used in key senate races right now. Instead it was used to make sure Blackstone still had control over the Ways and Means Committee.

    Booker would definitely be a better candidate than McGrath (who's basically just a tier version of Susan Collins only in the end she wouldn't be loyal to her party the way Collins is) but might have been too progressive for Kentucky.

    Not what I said; only way the Dems win a senate seat in Kentucky is with record black turnout, 2017 Alabama election style. Only way that happens is with a well-liked black candidate.

    For a few weeks, I guess.

    Then you sold out your countrymen to death camps to actual fascists.

    When the survivors got out and attempted to go back... their houses were taken over and they were told "there is nothing here for you".

    You probably didn't know that last part, I would guess. The ones your countrymen wouldn't let back into their own homes, came here.

    Seriously though, I am just trying for a mild ribbing.

    All countries have some that went on in the past, including the US.

    Poland got unlucky being between two corrupt authoritarian behemoths. Never really stood much of a chance, despite the obvious bravery of the Polish army, which, from the first hand accounts I have read on both sides acquitted itself rather well.
