Their general coverage of all Senate races has been incredibly poor imo.

Getting a little bored now of the lack of news, I'm in danger of doing some actual work for the first time in days. When is GA/PA expected to be called?
Trump's USA has also lost a lot of moral high ground to China. Many countries see the US as unreliable and unreasonable in the way it conducted the trade wars.
Considering the history of the two states, it's quite amusing in a way.
brilliant
I'm pretty sure I read some pretty crazy stuff about sentenicing gays to death by stoning in the Old Testament a few years ago. I recall that men being gay was a bit worse than women as well, for some reason. The same section also talked about punishment for adultery, incest and such. I have no idea what book this was, I was just fooling around out of boredom.
One challenge with this is going to be getting past labeling countries of origin as potential subgroups within the Latino culture. We already specifically label Cubans, so wouldn’t be a new policy or phenomenon, but when these subgroups who will be labelled specifically as Honduran or specific parts of Mexico, for example, or other Caribbean countries become as defined as Cubans, when this starts to occur, democrats will be the ones labeling them. Don’t see how it could be labeled anything other than country names. There will be pushback to this & there will be resentment towards the Democratic Party due to this.
Is there another way of effectively labeling the factions within the Latino culture in America, a way that will best define them against the others?

Hopefully, they spend a lot of money on ads to remind how Perdue and Loeffler made money on stock exchange with inside info on Covid while lying to the American people.
Agreed.
Trump will beat the Obama 08 number when it's all done.
They should go back to giving Florida 17 EC votes.
Dems taking the bible belt and Repubs taking the West coast? Mad tings.Wanna see strange? Look at 1976 Election, looks science fiction by today's normal
Very much so.
Climate change might give it 0 EC votes.
Haha true. This pretty much sums up his supporters.
Imagine the same candidate taking both California and Oklahoma.
Was about to post something along those lines for the Keys but I actually do kinda feel for the people there. But yeah.
I've tried to get answers from my aunt and a couple others. Some will say it's an abortion stance, that I get. But when it comes to garbage like "Dems hate god," "Dems took god out of school," "we're a Christian nation and no other religion should be here!" and so forth, it's clear they're just stuck in "the other" bullshit.
Puerto Rico has, for the 6th time now, voted for statehood.
The parties switched like earth's magnetic poles?Wanna see strange? Look at 1976 Election, looks science fiction by today's normal
It’s almost like a ‘Choose Your Adventure Book,’ there’s certain to be passages easily interpreted as negative to gays in there.
The teacher next door to me, devout Christian, feels the same way...
...and absolutely can’t stand people like that.
So, there are some out there. Just few and far between.
Any possibility of that becoming a reality in 2022 if the Dems can flip the senate? Do the Dems even unilaterally support making PR a full state? Someone here said there was no guarantee it would be a consistently blue state.

It was always bound to happen within a couple of elections anyway.
Think that argument makes a lot of sense to me? I know of a lot of liberal religious people who fear that the progressive democrats ridicule religion way too much (whether true or not). I agree though if the alternative is voting for Trump (probably the worst practicing representative of christianity you can find) it makes no sense voting for him either.
Weird year because the Democrat was from Georgia and on the heels of Nixon/Ford.
DC statehood is a much safer bet.
It's not just the parties but demographic changes as well. Also, 1976 was an odd one with Ford being not all that conservative and Carter being from the South which mattered more then.
Dems ran a southern Sunday School Bible teacher, Peanut Farmer, ex Governor in 1976. He's still alive - Jimmy Carter.
Almost as though things have flipped. Tough getting that across to many right wingers.
A little off topic but just to continue down that rabbit hole a little further, I thought this analysis of that little swish in the bible belt they've held onto since then was very interesting. Start of the Twitter thread here:

My Grandma voted Trump in 2016 because "he's a christian". There's no science behind it, Fox and radio were her news.
The depressing thing is that she was a lovely woman that raised 7 kids and then took care of 6 of my cousins. You'd be hard pressed to find someone more different to Trump than her.
Not too dissimilar from JFK's map, though. But certainly the last gasp of that coalition before the full effect of the southern strategy took hold.
Presumably with a Republican Senate this would now not happen?
Funny stance. Wonder how much Christianity was lost when Dems were in power. My guess would be zero.
