I really want to see video of her comments because who would actually talk about how other candidates were better than your husband
98% of my posts in this thread are puns, wisecracks or (as of today) cat pictures. I leave most of the "out-in-the-weeds" discussions to smarter folks since the few areas I'm familiar with rarely come up; Northern Indiana and Delaware politics.
Not today, though;
An Economic Warning Sign: RV Shipments Are Slipping

An Economic Warning Sign: RV Shipments Are Slipping
For reference, Obama used Elkhart as a backdrop for two speeches about the recovery and I believe MSNBC used the city as a reference point for a bunch of articles on the recession.
One thing more clearly than others gets me to think that Biden won't win, and it's that his corner is not acting like a team that's going to win.
In 2013, a poll showed that more Louisiana Republicans blamed Obama for the response to Katrina (29%) than Bush (28%) even though it happened over three years before Obama. Another 44% weren't sure.
That's real, not The Onion.
I think in the GE, positions like ending employer based insurance and decriminalisation of border crossings will be vote losers.
You really get the impression that no one in his inner circle actually believes in him
Man he really shouldn't be running. No wonder Obama was leaking to the NYT last week.
Right, yeah. I like them, but couldn't imagine actually buying one unless I was already retired. Otherwise it would just sit around most of the time.
He's also not always been a Democrat, but you keep on doing you, Susan.
I'm not sure about that, but in any case Kamala's plan also for the most part end employment based insurance.
I have no idea. There's a place near me in PA that must have stock of like 100+ on their lot, and considering the cloest population center is at least 45 min away I'm flabbergasted as to how they can operate.
They sell heavier in rural areas. Even in a denser suburb, where would you have the space for one?
Don't forget that "Recreational Vehicle" is a pretty wide term; they aren't just $500,000 45' McMansions on Wheels. A lot of the RVs made in Elkhart are tow-behind folding / pop-up campers that can go about $6-10k;
This is definitely something that a family, especially a young one where privacy isn't an issue yet, might invest in to handle all of their vacation needs instead of staying in motels or messing with tents. They're pretty easy to park in the driveway or back yard until you need them and they last ages; my family got one when I was ~9 years old and it lasted until well after we were all in college, and if I remember right my dad sold it for a few thousand bucks too so... we got our money's worth out of it. Having taken a lot of vacations in a camper pretty much exactly like that growing up, it's not exactly roughing it but you still have to find the bathroom with a flashlight.

Sure, but Raytheon is about to make a shit-ton of cash, so who's to say whether thermonuclear war is a net negative, or positive?
Anyone who publicly advocated for voting third party should have to flog themselves in public in penance.
A third thing is also true: Susan Sarandon and other 3rd party refuseniks deserve to be viciously owned until they DO own it
But by stealth!
I mean you know I think people are generally dumb. Even if something is better that doesn't mean they will want it.
Win first, then go ham.
Well, people are still talking about her, so they obviously care about what she's doing.
It makes a lot of sense though, because it's easily one of the more expensive luxury items. Other "luxury" items like clothes washers / dryers, air conditioning, dishwashers, computers and TVs are still pretty essential to most people, but a camper isn't; it's like buying a new car that doesn't drive anywhere and you only use a few weeks out of the year. You buy it because in the long term it takes a bite out of travel expenses like hotels and such; emphasis on long term. When demand for them drops, it means folks are expecting to hunker down for a few years at least.
Newt the Bumfuck everyone
Foreign aid is apparently socialism now, also GND is going to be implemented by checks notes John Hickenlooper!
RVs also include things like 4 wheelers, camper trailers, snowmobiles, jet skis, etc... luxury items that the middle class can afford.
I tend to agree with this since it's so widely read (if you include Atlas Shrugged) but in an era of mass white nationalist murders, The Turner Diaries deserves consideration. It has certainly directly inspired far more bloodshed. As far as widely-read, incredibly destructive books, the only one I think compares to ole Ayn is The Bell Curve.
She's right, but really weird to see her making that argument. Does she want him to lose? 🤔
For sure, I get the reasoning, but I still can't help but be a bit tickled by the corollary and the vision in my head of a bunch of economists going to this one town to scope this out.
But Nikki, Cory is going to lose. It's, like, a foregone conclusion.
In the same way you care about your cousin Kyle, who lives with his parents and drinks cases of PBR at age 45.
You can care about/recognize the existence of someone and still recognize that this person is completely irrelevant to modern life.
Still not supporting Bernie in the primary, Susan. Thanks for the "history lesson"
Has anybody ever figured out the lowest possible number of Republicans blaming Obama. I don't think that polling Republicans whether Obama was to blame for the fall of the western Roman Empire would fall substantially below the figure in the poll you cited. Probably a quarter of the Republican base is only inspired by trolling the libs, I don't think you can get any number in a poll below 25%.
That's... very logical. I think I'd need to know how RVs move in comparison to cars. After all, I'm always impressed by the size of car dealership lots and the amount of them around me is obviously in the double-digits.
Perspective, I guess.
I mean, until I see graphs, I'm not convinced.
If I'm honest, I seriously doubt that the election will be won or lost on something like the differences between Harris and Warren's plans, especially not when running against such detail oriented candidate like Trump.
That is not my vice but he is definitely a contributing factor to my other increased viciness

They track the recessions pretty well. The question is if it precedes the recessions, though.
Old people are dying. Its the same with Harley Davidson and old cars the market for that stuff is dying off and younger folk either aren't interested or cant afford these hobbies.
