Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

This blog will pay for itself.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Hot air and ill-informed banter

All your base are belong to Tunch.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

Why did Dr. Oz lose? well, according to the exit polls, it’s because Fetterman won.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

This fight is for everything.

Everybody saw this coming.

CNN has Satorum up by 11 with 26% (of precincts, I think) in in CO.

Is there some channel where I can watch some Chuck Todd type guy talk about the I-2625 corridor and stuff like that? The MSNBC coverage sucks so far.

    I read somewhere that the news media didn’t budget for this many states, they expected it to be over after Florida and didn’t do that much polling or send many reporters to the 46 other states.

    What an incredible day this has been. First we witness the bitter farewell of Karen Love-Handel, then you were nominated for the prestigious Moore Award, and now we end the day with a resurgence of Santorum. It is all a very fitting tribute for the 200th birthday of Charles Dickens. Thank you, wingnuts.

I can just see Wolf, Candy and John all giggly and goggle-eyed that their sacred Conventional Wisdom has been proved wrong!

    Lower one and two digit interstates are south and west, higher numbers north and east.

    It was only on Sunday that I saw my first Romney bumper sticker/lawn sign/indication that an actual human being wants to be associated with the man. That was only the second instance of my seeing anyone publicly associating themselves with one of these goobers who wasn’t Ron Paul–I actually saw a Rick Perry bumper sticker in Sacramento with my fiancee and we both literally laughed when we saw it. This as opposed to 2008, when I saw a decent amount of McCain paraphernalia.

    Anecdata don’t count for much, but I see little evidence that actual people care for these candidates.

    February 7, 2012 at 11:57 pm

    @freelancer: There’s three lines of repercussions:

    1) Delegates. Not many delegates in play. None in MO. Mathematically it helps Santorum a little, hurts Mitt a little, and that’s about it.
    2) Momentum. Mitt wants to show he’s the inevitable guy. He wants to choke off funds to his opponents. This won’t help AT ALL. If it was close, it probably wouldn’t hurt. If he lost for obvious regional regions (such as winning/losing in Utah for a Mormon, or winning/losing to Ron Paul in a place like Alaska) it wouldn’t be a problem. This isn’t those cases. This is a real question mark over whether Mitt can reel in the next round of primaries. Tonight was multitasking for the first time, and Mitt should have done that better than anyone. It’s the place where organization and money help – a lot. And that’s his upper hand. He’s getting CRUSHED in the very kind of race that he should be running away with this. How does that impact the next round of fundraising and how does that affect the super delegate fight? The GOP has that as well, and that was instrumental in 2008 for Obama to slowly bleed supers away from Hillary largely based on the inevitability shift.
    3) Demographics/Electability. CO/MN/MO are pretty damn white-bread states. MO is still considered a bellwether for the general election. CO and MN aren’t so deep in the Dems corner that the GOP can’t win them – particularly someone who looks like Romney. Is Romney doing poorly because of the Mormon thing, where this portends trouble in November? Is it because GOP voters have finally soured on Mitt due to his unfavorables, and they don’t think he can win in the general? Was turnout just so low that this is representative of nothing about the candidates, but instead about the weakness of the GOP field in general? Lots of inside baseball bits to dissect. I have to imagine the big boys in the RNC are shitting radioactive bricks right about how.

    Willard’s only real selling point was his competitiveness with the President in head to head polling. If recent trends continue, and Romney falls far enough behind, it’s anybody’s nomination to win.

    I think that’s why the Romney campaign was ripping the methodology of some of the polling yesterday. They know people despise their candidate, and he engenders no loyalty. Consequently, once things start going bad for him, it tends to snowball.

Now it’s like, Jesus, did you really have to chain yourself to the White House fence? aka Did you really have to get tackled and embolden the GOP base in one fell stroke? Romney isn’t the first choice of the ghey-hating base, and anti-anti-ghey activism of this stripe fires them up in a way that they never would have been before in addition to hobbling the gay rights movement which in the last decade has just been struggling to say “We’re here, We’re queer, We’re the sons and daughters and co-workers and friends you’ve always known us to be, so just chill on all the selective Biblical talk, MmmKay?”

    Forgot about that one. Well, rules wouldn’t be rules without exceptions. But it’s really short. Driven on it, even. In fact, I think I’ve probably driven on at least part of better than 80% of the interstates in the lower 48.

    @trollhattan: Canada? Fucking Canada doesn’t have rules. They have one highway. It’s called ‘Highway’. I’ve driven quite a lot of that highway. There was a section in Saskatchewan that was on fire. The actual highway was on fire. Not next to the highway – the literal highway itself. They don’t need to number it. If there’s any confusion about which highway, they can always call it ‘The highway that is on fire’ and that should be clear enough.

    Colorado latest results still don’t include the big urban counties, so this may take a while, but the trend continues to be Santorum.

    Now, admittedly, Colorado is not Oregon and vice versa, but the urban counties vote very differently than the hinterlands in Oregon. Basically, if you can take Multnomah County and Lane County in Oregon, you’ve got the upper hand in a statewide race, and those two counties are the last to report, for the most part. Merkley’s win over Smith in ’08 Senate, and Kitzhaber’s win over Dudley for Governor in ’10 hinged on Multnomah and Lane Counties.

    @Martin:

    A thing of beauty.

    I’ll add:

    1. Romney won Minnesota in ’08 with 41.6%. He’s coming in third with 17.1% tonight. The mark of a floundering politician is one that cannot hold on to his support.

    2. Aside from New Hampshire, Romney has only won states by negative and attack ads. In five years of campaigning he has yet to demonstrate he can convince people to vote for him, not vote against the other guy.

    3. One over-riding property of this GOP Presidential nominating campaign is the rejection of Romney by the Base, and even the GOP as a whole. Only in the last four weeks has he reached 37% national support numbers or, turning it around, 63% of the GOP don’t want him at the top of the ticket.

    4. A couple of weeks ago the Fundie-Cons got together and decided to back Santorum as their Candidate. It didn’t work in Florida but it may very well have happened tonight. These people have money but more importantly they have national organizations capable of raising a ton of money AND they have boots-on-the-ground. Santorum, tonight, has shown he can win and win big. Thus the Fundie-Cons have evidence that they aren’t throwing their time, money, and effort away by working for him.

    5. IF #4 is accurate THEN we may see the Fundie-Cons unite the Not-Romney vote and in which case Romney is toast.

    6. IF #5 comes around THEN the chances of a full-bore GOP faction fight breaking out greatly increases … just in time for a Presidential election.

    At the time it was named, all the x80 numbers were taken (180 by CA-180 in Fresno, the others as I-80 loops/spurs, I-480 was since torn down after Loma Prieta did San Francisco a favor by damaging the road beyond repair).

    In general, the old “US” highway system ran low east/north high west/south, with a few crazy exceptions. So, when the Interstate system was planned, the numbering scheme went the opposite way.

    The general rule for the three number Interstates is that even first digit is a loop or bypass (like I-405 in Seattle, Portland, and LA) and odd first digit is a spur off of the parent Interstate (see I 505 in the Sacramento Valley, which runs due south after I-5 bends towards Sacramento, to provide a route to the Bay Area).

    According to Jeremy Meyer of the Denver Post, Mitt Romney is losing badly to Rick Santorum in El Paso County, home to Colorado Springs, trailing him by about 1,700 votes with 193 of 199 precincts reporting.

    This could make Mr. Romney’s math very difficult in Colorado. He won 59 percent of the vote in El Paso County in 2008, close to his statewide total. Although the area has a large number of evangelical voters, it is closer to being a swing region than other parts of the state in the context of a Republican caucus.

    @Anoniminous: Good point about MN. I hadn’t caught up to that trend, but that’s a HUGE drop in support for Mitt there. You could almost excuse it if Santorum was from MN and not in the race in 2008, but the dude is from PA.

    I wouldn’t worry tooo much about the vote-for/vote-against distinction, at least within the viewpoint of the GOP. There’s nothing vote-for in their plan for 2008. It’s all Nobama Muslim Abortion Soçialist. It’s a losing strategy, but apparently it’s the GOP strategy and has been since 2010 at least when the swept a bunch of teatards into Congress to say ‘fuck you America’ to everything.

    On your last point, I think the risk of a convention fight just went up a lot tonight. For all of optics of this, it doesn’t change the delegate race much. The winner take all states come later and big states like CA aren’t likely to fall to Santorum. I’d put my money behind the bond traders over Rick Warren here. That may indeed lead to a result where the delegates fell disproportionately on Mittens but the heart of the party stays between Santorum and Noot.

    Bottom line though – this is just awesome.

    Hmm. Denver and Douglas (Boulder) are both in and both went for Mittens. Arapahoe (Aurora, Littleton) not in yet, but it’s big (3rd largest after Denver), and may well go for Mittens also. But Mitt doesn’t have much of a lead here.

    El Paso county also not in. It’s Dobson county, and is actually larger than Denver county (Denver county is physically small and the large population there flows over into the neighboring counties).

    This might be pretty close, and I think Mitts biggest vote haul might already be counted.

    The bean counters are finally starting to tear through the aggregate results, and it’s looking more and more like Romney is winning by dominating the 1% vote – both in fundraising and in demographics. This might turn out to be a bigger referendum on SuperPACs and tax policy than we might have realized.

    Please remember, folks, Ricky Santorum is our worst fear as liberals. Make sure all your GOP friends and relatives know we sockulist liberal Democrats are deathly afraid of Santorum running against Obama. There’s just no way we could beat a Santorum juggernaut. We desperately hope Santorum isn’t the GOP nominee.

    Perhaps you are right and the entire 99%/1% meme is working overtime in the GOP race too. Remember, Santorum has been positioning himself as the blue-collar/working man candidate on the R side.

    @Villago Delenda Est:

    Now, admittedly, Colorado is not Oregon and vice versa, but the urban counties vote very differently than the hinterlands in Oregon. Basically, if you can take Multnomah County and Lane County in Oregon, you’ve got the upper hand in a statewide race, and those two counties are the last to report, for the most part. Merkley’s win over Smith in ‘08 Senate, and Kitzhaber’s win over Dudley for Governor in ‘10 hinged on Multnomah and Lane Counties

    Pretty much every state race for governor has been decided by Multinomah county. Those guys keep it real for the rest of us.

    The rest of the state has no idea what is good for them. Those fools were willing to vote some real moronic weak Republican candidates. Kitzhaber has been doing a pretty good job working with everyone. He should win re-election quite easily.

    @freelancer: I don’t think we really know. I don’t think anyone knows.

    IMO, the most alarming problem within the GOP is that NOBODY has a positive favorability. Santorum can win over the god botherers, Romney the millionaires, Noot the ‘who will piss off liberals the most’ but each group hates the favorite of the other groups.

    In past years, I think they would have weathered this due to more traditional and moderate campaigning, but so far it’s been nothing but millionaire SuperPACs cluster bombing negative ads. And not just mild negative ads, but “If Jesus came back to earth tomorrow, my opponent would punch him in the neck and fuck him in the ass” negative ads.

    And for all the GOPs “Obambi is a cryptomarxist” bullshit, I think they realize deep down that the public like him in spite of their 24/7 smear campaign, and that he’s really goddamn competent at campaigning and they’re not going to to beat this guy with candidates that alienate voters and stumble over their own feet – and that’s all they have in the bullpen.

    Ultimately, Santorum may simply be this round of not-Romney.

    I hope the glitter attacks end. Somebody or somebody’s kid is going to get glitter in the eye and really it’s not cool or funny or original. I hate Romney but that guy who attempted to glitter bomb him is a moron.

    @Martin: Dana Milbank’s column is all about Pres. Obama having fun with a marshmallow cannon a kid brought to the WH Science Fair and that it’s better to be lucky than good. I think he’s both. I feel more enthused than I have in a long, long time.

    Rick Santorum has now won more states than Romney has and spent 30 million less doing it.

    Huh. Well, one explanation being offered up for Santorum over Mitt tonight, and for Mitt’s collapse over 2008 results is that in 2008, Romney was viewed as the conservative against McCain as the moderate, and therefore Mitt was somewhat more appealing as a result. This cycle Mitt is viewed as the moderate over Santorum and Newt as the conservative.

    In a way that makes sense, but to really buy that we need to accept that 2012 Romney, who is clearly staking out more conservative positions than 2008 Romney still managed to move to the left of the electorate. That’s astonishing. Not that I’m surprised that the GOP has shifted that far right, but that the GOP thinks they’re going to win jack shit by doing so.

    @Martin: its waay simpler than that.
    50% of the GOP is WECs now, up from 40% in 2008.
    they wont vote mormon if there is another godbotherer running.

    There’s no Open Thread tonight, but may I be OT and say that Daniel Choi was kind of overbearing on the replay of The Ed Show?

    I’m gay, and I’m cool with the fact no one responds to anything I write here, especially after midnight. Don’t blame anyone!

    Choi was weirdly churlish and shouty, and I don’t know who elected him as the voice of gay America re: Prop 8. It was actually embarrasing, Choi barking at Ed about rights. I am far beyond wondering why the GLBT community depends on drama queens to make their case on national television. Choi honestly seems to have issues, I don’t know why he’s anyone’s spokesperson, he seems way more into the attention. Expressing this rigid “gay rights!” ideology without any subtlety, conversation, persuasion, talking about the issues as they are right now, day to day. I find Choi really unhelpful as a representative, but I guess we gay people have been conditioned to accept anyone who will defend us, and in the larger picture we have to salute the troops, coercivally. I don’t necessarily trust Dan Choi to speak for me, I think he might be a little unstable in the head with the attention.

    Yay troops! Yay war. Choi doesn’t speak for me, and I’d bet anything there’s a police incident with him in the next 5 years. Some strange incident. Choi’s not my spokesperson, but I wish he had acquitted himself better on The Ed Show. No need for shouting.

    You watched the Ed Show and found Dan Choi overbearing? Lord, have mercy!

    You might as well have been watching Michael Moore interview Cindy Sheehan about her run against Pelosi.

    See above for my unbeknownst, yet prescient analogy.

    @Arundel:
    I worked very hard for the anti-war movement in the 60’s & at some point a group of very angry people rose out of the movement & seemed to take the lead. It was embarrassing to hear them use violet rhetoric and hate when our goal was supposed to be peace & non-violence. Part of it is anger at being ignored and abused when asking nicely some of it is just frustration for not being able to cross that imagined goal line. Sadly those folks became the face of the movement, partly because of spectacular stunts like bombings but also because they made better TV.

    In retrospect I think some of the same rise in ‘angry young men’ can be seen in the civil rights movement. You can only ask to be treated as a human for so long before the anger over takes you, some people have a lower tolerance for abuse & rejection so they get there first.

    They actually started that late last week. You knew it was going to be a good night for ol frothy because Willard completely ignored Salamander & focused only on Santorum. Never thought it would be a sweep but the power of morans compel the GOP these days

    I keep imagining everyone at Obama headquarters breaking out in uncontrollable giggling every few minutes.

    I was at my local OFA HQ last night, where we recruited 5 new vols for my tiny little district. Giggling deferred til this AM.

    @Martin:

    I have to imagine the big boys in the RNC are shitting radioactive bricks right about how.

    I love you, man.

    @WaterGirl:
    I think the punctuation could do with a few semi-colons, the addition of a couple of relative pronouns and an initial cap on a proprietary name:

    Since I have been working the Komen beat almost exclusively, I have been remiss in pointing out that I fear that Barack Obama will in all likelihood be facing a socially maladroit charisma-challenged gaffe-prone filthy rich religious cultist who claims to be middle-class and unemployed; who holds no deeply held belief that couldn’t be swayed by a stiff breeze; who enjoys making money by dismantling businesses, firing the employees and shipping their jobs overseas and then taking that money and stashing it in off-shore tax havens; and who has recently been spending tens of millions of dollars fending off the likes of Newt Fucking Gingrich and Rick Fucking Santorum because, even faced with those horrible choices, most Republicans still find him as palatable as a semen-flavored Popsicle.

    There. Now it’s perfect.
