The Dude wrote:Preparing for something really huge to happen. I was watching the Harrison/Graham debate and Graham said something about a vaccine in less than a month. Also the antibody therapeutics could prove to be huge if Trump gets better. Hopefully not enough to move anything significantly


Lady G is a liar extraordinaire. There will be no vaccine approved within 30 days and, even if they work, the therapeutics are still months away from being approved by the FDA.

Biden has this, relax.

Would advise against relaxing. Continue to talk to friends and family who need a push to vote for Biden and down ballot Democrats. Do a night of phone banking. Help with a lit drop (it's nice outside!). You can relax after polls close at 8 pm on November 3.

Within the last two days, just driving around my neighborhood, I have seen MANY Biden signs now

Judiciary Committee Chairman Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., assured Friday the first hearing for Barrett would happen Oct. 12 as scheduled and said any members of the panel can join remotely if necessary.

Trump, after surviving this thing thanks to world class care and use of widely unavailable therapeutics, will say the disease is difficult but even someone his age who is supposed to be at significant risk can survive. This means young kids, young adults and young parents have nothing to fear and we ought to open it all up. We know how to solve this.

He will downplay it and use his survival to do it.
On a scale of 1 to Chris Brown, how pissed is he?

I doubt Trump will admit he is high risk.

Just how is Jason Miller out there stumping for Trump. His flaws are diametrically apposed to many conservative groups. Seriously, he not only committed adultery on the campaign trail last go, but he tried to abort the baby unknowing to the mother, which the court asserted the reporting as Fair and True.

Did my absentee ballot today. They pull a fast one on you. It’s republican first, then democrat second for the bubbles. Then it flips halfway through. It also requires a stamp which I found odd. Figured it would be good to go. Nope!

Wow.

I've heard some R names. Dan Hilferty most recently.

Guess Shapiro runs for gov and then Lamb, Houlahan, Torsella, Fetterman and Val Arkoosh for senate possibly.

I was just trying to think of some Democratic names...I like Shapiro and Fetterman definitely leaves an impression...one thing for sure, I don't think a Mayor Kenney would do well on the state level

Drat. I was looking forward to him getting crushed in 2022. Maybe this decision will position him to speak his mind more? Lol.

Some person I have never heard of but has a blue check floated DJT Jr to run for the Senate seat here. Would love to beat his ass.

I would love to vote against him in the primary. That would spark joy. He'd probably win it, sadly.
