Hahaha! That would be amazing if he wins!

If I were a resident, I would put up with a little inefficiency and "incompetence" surrounding the bureaucratic process to get someone who wasn't corrupt and promoting a big government, lefty agenda.

MSM isn't exposing this earthquake in South Jersey, it will be interesting to see if others join the fraying of the career politician.
Murphy will win NJ, somehow there is always a a barrel of votes found in Union county, will have to wait for the outcome to be realized, but NJ is totally corrupt.

During his time in office, Trump increased the intensity of politics.
He was willing to fight, so he was accepted by conservatives in lieu of the other milquetoast choices.

He did not create the base.
He correctly read it and rode the wave to power.

The ensuing 4 year brawl forced libs to take off their masks.
Now the “moderate” segment of the electorate can’t unsee what they’ve seen.

The conservative base is the same with or without Trump.
Among moderates, hatred for Trump does not translate to love for liberals.

The response to losing among many on the left is that the party isn’t left enough.
I would strongly encourage the Democratic Party to go further left, and be as open about their intentions as possible.


Liberals want conservatives to shut up.
Conservatives want liberals to keep talking.

Exactly. Trump, while ham-fisted and incapable of staying out of his own way long-enough to win an easy re-election, forced a lot of cockroaches out into the open. He essentially was a third party candidate.

Exactly.

At first, I was pissed that the Dims were not understanding basic cause and effect. Not that many Americans are hard core socialists.

Then I realized that this is a good thing for America.

They are mostly refusing to accept that and are blaming the moderates in their own party (or Trump).

Here comrade, let me get you a bigger shovel. Keep digging. Push the agenda further left.

Yep. Never get in the way of your enemy when they're making a mistake.

There's a fantasy sequence where the Iraqis milling about a crossroads at Debecka Pass are really those Dem Commies in disarray, but who finish by getting piled up in the same fashion anyway. Wish I could draw...

Latest reason of the day that they lost in Virginia, white women who voted for Biden but are actually racist. Not sure how they explain the new Lt. Governor being a person of color. Will get that answer tomorrow I am sure.

Liberals think they know why the Dems lost the Virginia governor's race: A key female voting bloc that voted for Biden but turned on McAuliffe are a ‘bunch of racist Karens’

LOL. McAuliffe had his Hillary moment (a generation of Dem polecat he's part of). Those white women, who didn't vote for Hillary because they simply couldn't stand her? If they had school-age kids, he called them the equivalent of deplorable, not worthy, less than important, you name it, they didn't cotton to that AT all. Their response was to render him irrelevant - and I'll drink to that.
