Hotter, Badder, and Unpopularer Takes

I have an irrational dislike of the "Tilt" rating, especially if Tilt and Tossup are used in the same rating system (should be Tossup > Lean R/Lean D or no tossup and just Tilt R/D).

I have an irrational hate of tossups, and I love the tilt rating, like I think tossup is chickening out.

Don Blankenship, now officially (WV-D) would do better in a GE as the dem nominee against Capito than Swearingen.

Same goes with if he went back to his birth state of KY and ran against McConnell. He would do better as the dem nom in the GE than McGrath.

Also, my congressman Colin Allred is one of the most underrated house freshman of the past decade, and he is one of us, and also a non stop working machine, and an A tier candidate and house member. I believe that especially as a young person in politics with plenty of time, and great health and family, he will be doing even greater stuff soon. I also believe that he will win reelection in an even more impressive manner next year than last year, best analogy I can give is Josh Gottheimer.

Demint started the recession.

If we do it right, automation can make life for all of humankind a utopia.

The impeachment thing may be overplayed. Two points I want more data on. One, how important is it really to voters? Like VA was against removing confederate stuff by a 20 point ish margin but still voted for Northam by 9 ish. Because while people agreed with the GOP on it, it was not that big of a deal. Two, I am among those high fifties to low sixties percent who don't want to see Trump impeached, for strategic reasons. I know other dems like me, I wonder what percent of the anti impeach movement is like that.

Middle school was slightly less unbearable than high school

I agree.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

If Biden is completely crashed and burned by Texas (highly doubt it will be bad enough for this) but I'll just say f#ck it and vote for Yang for the memes.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Warren ahead in RCP, she will be the nominee, been saying it for months that Biden is not going to be the nominee.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

The reason AOC generates so much reaction is most rw men think she’s hot

I disagree, otherwise Shalala would be the focus.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Andy Beshear for VP, Jacqueline Coleman gets gov job.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Yeah, prolly cheated with her.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Can’t believe I am saying this, but the current field for TX Sen sucks so bad that I’d honestly prefer Julian Castro to just jump in.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Is a cheese-less pizza even possible?

Yes, although I guess it's debatable if you consider it "pizza" instead of a flatbread cooked with tomato sauce and vegetables on top of it. Made right it can be pretty good though.

Cheese-less pizza, or whatever you want to call it, is elitist food.

This is cringe

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

I would rather debate with redeaglepolitics whether Macomb County, Michigan will trend D or R than have sex.

Ditto.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

At the end of the day, impeachment will have little impact on 2020. It will be long gone and forgotten. Also, I feel like this is an issue that while is slightly against dems is not even that high on people's reasons on how they are voting, and the GOP is unsuccessfully gonna try to make a big deal out of it (closest comparison I can think of is confederate statues in VA Gov 2017). No one gonna be like I was gonna vote dem, but now Im gonna be voting GOP because impeachment. The absolute most it could do is boost base turnout. Also, I feel like there are people like me, who are against impeachment but are obviously still going to vote dem.

Cabin fever is a real problem

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

I don't trust or even really like Barbara Bollier, I think she is way overrated, a B tier candidate at best, more like C tier, and would get crushed by double digits against anyone but Kobach.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Trump is bicurious

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Trump is bicurious

i am curious how you came to this

His weird tendencies to take compliments on men's appearances a little past the point of comfort, and also at the weirdest times, and he's done it multiple times.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

I am still supporting Michael Franken in Iowa, Greenfield is sh!t

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Minority Republicans are infinitely more irritating than straight male wasp Republicans.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Slavery reparations are a stupid idea and a plant issue by the Republicans.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Brian Kemp is popular, not as popular as DeSantis, but popular enough to win reelection and a rematch against Abrams in almost any circumstances, barring some really big turn of events

but as things stand today, he be fine
