I wonder if Gosar will respond a la Will Ferrell in "The Campaign" and record an ad where he has sex with Brill's wife.

Right? If it had just been one, you might have been able to dismiss it. But six?Holy smokes, that’s what 5 siblings? All saying don’t vote for my brother! LMAO
Um, that SD is a conservative state where it's very hard to win as a Democrat?The strong economy will keep the blue wave from being to big. Many people still vote with their pocketbooks. I want to see the Dems win states like S.D., TX, KS, ND. The dem governor candidate in S.D. picked a long term GOP as his running mate, what message does that send?
Issue number one — dinosaurs. She believes Farragut needs dinosaurs in its parks.
"That would probably increase tourism — maybe decrease the population," Bill said. “What kid doesn’t love dinosaurs? I love dinosaurs.”
Because she loves gardening and conservation, she would also like large gardens in these parks.

Yeah. He needs to resign and live in a cabin far away from the rest of us.Maine Governor Paul LePage criticised for 'racist' remarks
Governor LePage held up mugshots he said showed that most men arrested in Maine on drug charges were black
The governor of Maine has said that people of colour were enemies of his state, and appeared to suggest they should be shot.

Yeah, that’s two years old. People voted for the Trump ticket anyway.Dear God. From the article:
Mr LePage made the comments while seeking to clarify remarks he made earlier in the week which were criticised as racist.
Mr LePage was asked about a statement he made in January, in which he blamed the state's heroin problem on "guys by the name D-Money, Smoothie, Shifty" who "come from Connecticut and New York".
"They come up here, they sell their heroin, then they go back home. Incidentally, half the time they impregnate a young, white girl before they leave," he said.
Speaking on Wednesday, he denied it was racist, but said that since January he had been putting together a binder cataloguing drug arrests in the state, and that "90-plus per cent of those pictures in my book, and it's a three-ringed binder, are black and Hispanic people".
Asked by reporters to provide the binder, Mr LePage replied: "Let me tell you something: Black people come up the highway and they kill Mainers. You ought to look into that."
He then stormed off, telling the reporters: "You make me so sick."
And it gets worse. That's a doozy of an article. Today's GOP!
Check out my 401k bro.At least the $$ was directly to those who need it most.
Had a co-worker this week claim his 401K is going wild and he made nothing during the Obama years. It was difficult explaining that would have been nearly impossible. Guess they're gonna believe what they want.Check out my 401k bro.
Maybe he only staying putting money into his 401k in 2017? That's the only way to explain it logically.Had a co-worker this week claim his 401K is going wild and he made nothing during the Obama years.

The Portland Press Herald published FBI statistics which show that 1,211 people were arrested on charges of drug sales or manufacturing in Maine in 2014. Of those, 170 - 14.1% - were black, and almost all the rest were white.
Rights group the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) said it had filed a freedom of information request for records related to the arrests of black and Hispanic people in the state.
Its executive director, Alison Beyea, said Maine police were nine times more likely to arrest people of colour for selling drugs than white people, even though white people were just as likely to commit drug offences.

Something seems to be brewing in the midwest, of all places. Dems are apparently gonna come out of the midterms with at least a 2/2 split and maybe 3/1 in Iowa's four districts, with the fourth one being Steve King so who knows if he's even safe. Current split is 3/1 in favor of GOP. And they could very easily get to 2/2 with an outside shot at 3/1 in Kansas of all places, which is currently 4/0 GOP. One of Nebraska's three GOP districts is close, too.joffer said:

IF the Dems win the House, it would be particularly nice if it wasn't done entirely by college-educated suburban moms in coastal states.
My guess is he listened to Hannity and Alex Jones tout Gold prices during the Obama administration and bought Kugerands.The Z Machine said:Maybe he only staying putting money into his 401k in 2017? That's the only way to explain it logically.
Seems like it. I'm far more skeptical than most, but I think one of the election experts mentioned that incumbents on either side losing their seats during election cycles favorable to their party are incredibly rare- I wanna say something like 54 for the last 54? Here's a 538 article saying they're undefeated in the 5 "wave elections" since 1994. I don't put too much stock in that since Trumpism has totally re-aligned politics since six years ago, but it's at least worth mentioning.Is it really possible that Trump's and the Republicans constant dismissing of women will put the Senate in play?
His stupid tariffs and trade war are taking their toll. If he doesn’t figure out a way to back out of it really soon, he’s going to lose a bunch of these Midwestern seats for the Republicans.Something seems to be brewing in the midwest, of all places.

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/23/us/politics/scott-taylor-virginia-house-scandal.htmlRepresentative Scott Taylor, Republican of Virginia, has enjoyed a rapid political rise anchored in his valorous background as a member of the Navy SEALs, a credential with great resonance in a district that includes the world’s largest naval station and one of the highest concentrations of voters connected to the military. Fit, square-jawed and telegenic, he was expected to have a relatively easy time winning re-election in November.
But now he is threatened with a sudden fall: His campaign is facing accusations that it was part of an improper effort to help an independent candidate get on the ballot and siphon voters from his Democratic challenger. The allegations, which included using the names of dead people or voters who did not live in the district on signature petitions, were serious enough to warrant the appointment of a special prosecutor, and the independent candidate, Shaun Brown, was stricken from the ballot by the Virginia Supreme Court.
someone call Kris K Kobach ASAP!
This all sounds great, but flapgreen posted last night that he and his friends are all really upset and that the Democrats are going to be wiped out in November.I hope this isn't the kiss of death, but for the first time I'm genuinely optimistic about the House changing hands. Based on the district-by-district polls that the Times and some others are doing, along with the ratings of individual races from the analyst types, it seems like the Dems are way more than halfway to 23 already. And they have about 20 coin flip races and a bunch more races where they could potentially pull an upset out there to get them the other 10 or so they need.
Also important is that we're five weeks away from the elections and there's very little movement in any of the broader polling. Generic margin is steady at 8-9%, Trump disapproval is stead at 53-55%, etc. And early voting is already starting.
I assume some awful thing like new Russian troll farms spreading bizarre lies about candidates or the GOP coming up with a crazy new strain of bigotry to push will appear soon to temper my optimism.
When one of the great analytical minds of this board weighs in with insight like that, I tend to straighten up and pay close attention.This all sounds great, but flapgreen posted last night that he and his friends are all really upset and that the Democrats are going to be wiped out in November.
Did trump take office in January of 2009?
Obama did - from Jan 2009 to Jan 2017 - looks like gold went from 855 to 1100. So my point was that even the crazy gold people made some money during the Obama term. My co-worker was arguing that his 401K bombed during the Obama years and that it was going wild in Trump years.Did trump take office in January of 2009?
