Gardner is following the Dirty Dean Heller model of accepting his fucked fate and going all-in on the MAGA base to save him.
Following a guy who lost his seat by 5% is a bold move. Let's see how it works out for him.
Which is hilarious, because it's going to leave him far more fucked than Heller. I wouldn't be surprised if Hickenlooper beats him by double digits.
It all comes back to Bolton. A Bolton investigation should be launched, so that we can find out who he is, where he comes from and how much he knows.
One or two moderate Dems may really ruin it for everyone by giving credence to this "If Hunter Biden really was up to no good then Trump was right to do what he did" bullshit, huh? Fuck off, Manchin.
Even if Hunter was the dirtiest motherfucker on earth (and there's zero evidence he did anything wrong because Barr would've 100% revealed it by now) that doesn't make Trump's abuse of power magically go away.

Whilst being buried, America continues to scream, "both sides"'.
Lol outside of Hunter working for a fossil fuel board cuz he has a famous last name....
What the fuck did he do that was illegal? They didnt have to hire him to sit on the board
Outside of leaning on your name and nepotism i cant see what the whole corruption angle is. Outside of making money he didnt seem to be in a position to exert corruptive influence on the sales of fossil fuels lol
Like this whole thing is just them grasping for anything to draw attention away from how shitty Trump is

Sondland was also "intended" to be a GOP witness, but his remembering intensified and he revisited his statements.
Nothing. Burisma was a shady fucking company, but Biden is only guilty of using his name. The angle is just that his Biden really was corrupt, so his QPQ was justified.
It's a bold strategy.
I wonder what has bolstered Sanders so much in these last couple of weeks specifically?
In any case, I like to see Biden, Sanders, and Warren all somewhat in range of each other.
buckle up boys/girls - time to hit the panic button... I assume the last line of defense is rolling out Obama to take down Sanders.
This is true ofc but as dems I'd put Hunter on the stand regardless. In the (not too unlikely) case Biden gets the nomination you have cleared the waves beforehand. And in the (unlikely) case he incriminates himself or his father the latter will not get the nomination. There is nothing to lose imo.
Any moment now Obama's gonna take the stage to prevent a Sanders victory the neoliberal shill
Bernie clearly has the big 'mo. If Warren falls below 15% in a number of places, he'll be in a very good position.
So this is saying that its 39% Biden 34% Warren and 32% Sanders after second choices are done?
Warren is closer to winning than Sanders with these numbers.
I don't think Obama is a neoliberal shill - but I was born into the pundit class, so I merely offer a reading of the future based on history. Time will tell soon enough.
No matter how many times I see it, those "sir"s make me laugh every time. It just never gets old.
Well, 2nd choices are only important if their candidate does not get to 15% (at their voting precinct). So if we assume that there's an overlap between Sanders/Warren 2nd choices, and both are viable in the majority of precincts, this will only benefit those who are 2nd choices of Klobuchar (and Steyer/Yang to some extent)... Which is Biden, probably.
If Warren, Buttigieg and Sanders are all viable and the Biden-Klobuchar team-up maneuver works, that would be lethal for the other candidates, I would imagine.
No, because 2nd choices for supporters of the leading candidates (i.e. mainly Biden/Sanders, to a lesser extent Warren/Buttigieg in Iowa) don't really matter.
Honestly, there were probably people saying both directions. He was seen as a potential liability by some.
The news (AP?) tried to do this with Biden's brother recently as well. "He's using his famous name to help his business!" as if that's remotely comparable to Ivanka running the family business while working in the WH and refusing to answer questions about her father's policies.
We shall see. I think Buttigieg is going to under perform in many precincts. Bernie will over perform in high pop. places like Des Moines, but under perform in rural counties where there are more olds.
Also Warren won another mock caucus this time at GU.
Bernie keeps on not gaining in further alignments and I am cackling.

That kind of implies she thinks there's going to be support for witnesses.
Good, and if he's smart, he'll continue not taking the bait.
And nobody's going to bother him with this, whereas the level of scrutiny for Warren, had she said the same, would be through the fucking roof.
