Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

This blog will pay for itself.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

The choice is between normal and crazy.

“And when the Committee says to “report your income,” that could mean anything!

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

It could be worse. Vance could have said “post-menopausal sows.” Waiting for that audiotape to surface.

Innocent people don’t delay justice.

Please don’t feed the bears.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

Trump makes a mockery of the legal system and cowardly judges just sit back and let him.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself. We’re allowed to grow past that.

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Chutkan laughs. Lauro sits back down.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Moran:

The Conservative Party candidate is conceding the race for New York’s 23rd District for the second time, saying he doesn’t have enough votes.

Doug Hoffman had withdrawn his first concession to Democratic Rep. Bill Owens, saying the race was close enough that absentee ballots could change the outcome in the closely watched New York Congressional race.

Now, Hoffman said he has no hope of winning.

Guy sure is quick on the uptake.

Also, Acorn.

    I don’t blame Hoffman. As it turned out, the election was really close, and he could have won on the absentee ballots.

    Getting the vote count right, having an outcome that comports with the public’s will, is the most important thing.

    I thought this in 2000, and I still do.

    Losing will usually cause that to happen.

    Now, Hoffman said he has no hope of winning.

    In Hoffman’s defense, Fox News made it seem like he had a lot more supporters with clever editing.

    At least Hoffman has lots of new friends to help carry home all those bags of No Hope. That shit is heavy.

    @joe from Lowell:
    The vote was close, but the odds against the absentees giving Hoffman the victory were very high. After fixing the mistakes the election night total was about +3K for Owens with about 10K absentee ballots sent out (though nowhere near that many returned). In a race where presumably most of the absentee ballots sent out were returned before Scozzafava (or however you spell it) dropped out, it’s very unlikely that Hoffman gets the 3K+plurality of the remaning votes.
