My mom, a hardcore conservative, was actually crying during Nancy's speech.
Wish she'd just grow up and accept it.

I've been thinking this too. You can switch it either way imo.
Edit: Kirblar beat me
Again, then how did Jon Tester and Joe Manchin win? You can't generalize this shit.
Dude. There is plenty of time between now and 2020 to get into fight territory. I don't doubt that Pelosi has already a plan going on for a microsecond that will systematically obstruct and dismantle conservative agenda while advancing progressive causes. What she did while holding the minority is amazing.
In what world is Manchin and WV indicative of anything.
WV is the fucking thunderdome, look at Jim Justice and the entire SCOTUS.
I talked myself into 51/49 and 50. And at least expected 50/50 and 40. So yeah.
Not sure if I agree with this. If the only thing keeping their shittiness in check are the Dem controlled Legislature is that really something to be tolerated?
All of them are still part of a racist shit party
b..... but echo chambers....
I'm a lefty, so I'm good. But I was interested in finding out if there were interesting debate in here.
I'm quite a bit of a Nate hater, I specifically hate the way he does his odds and I keep telling people not to obsess over those numbers and that they don't mean what they think they mean.
But I can't lie, when I saw how that they went from 19 in 20 to under 50% in like 20 minutes, and when I saw in online reaction to that, I got 2016 flashbacks, down to that exact same sinking feeling in my stomach which I can still taste.
I did not enjoy that.
And I smoked for the first time in almost exactly 2 years.
But then Dino Rossi lost and I was thanks god for Dino Rossi and his collection of Ls, a rock of stability in this crazy times.
What it's indicative of is that there's a lot of serious differences between states in this country and anybody acting like there's a single strategy to win in all of them is extremely wrong.
So glad we finally got Walker.
And I hope Golden prevails in the instant runoff in ME-02 because neither looks like he'll get a clear majority first round.

Megan, you are a citizen. The issues and proposed solutions should define your vote. Burying the lede aren't you?
So how many house seats did we actually win? Seems like a lot in flux still at NYT. NBC was flashing 230 give or take.
I'd be most acceptable for this pair. A combination of both a centrist and a progressive. I doubt both sides would be pleased, but it seems like a good compromise choice for the two opposing ideology in the party.
Really CNN your gonna cut away? Wtf
We had to listen to a raving mad man and we can't listen to a woman in power. Uggg

I have zero issue with what Pelosi said.
The only way they get anything they want through the Senate is if they actually do work with republicans.
As for everyone chiming in with Beto for a spot on the ticket: You better be sure he can appeal to the voters of MI/WI/OH. I'm not necessarily sure he's a better choice there than Biden, who I feel would be a guaranteed win in those states.

Does this position even mean anything when it's the Speaker that's actually the leader of the party in the House?
Of the 21 Representatives in New England (Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut), only 1 is Republican and he may lose his election. It's being done on the "ranked choice" format which Maine put into law recently.
Of the 12 Senators in New England, only 1 is Republican.

Do you think they could win in swing states? I'd be 100% down for this ticket, but I guess the senate results have me kinda rattled.
Adios Perro.
An actual born in Mexico Mexican working with the GOP. I hate that
The machine politics aspect of blue states makes me sympathetic to why you'd be ok with this. And well, also O'Malley being so useless for his time in the position.
Yeah, I'd obviously take it if he wants to sign good bills to get wins. Whatever helps people. Send him that Sanders M4A bill or whatever.
Yeah, I'm pumped. We have a federal leader who isn't an idiot! Who isn't racist, or sexist, etc...! It's been a long 2 years.
Honestly, I don't know how they didn't catch that with a simple test. Their forecast was set up to only count confirmed wins as they came out, which meant that when 8PM ET came around and people like Pelosi hadn't won their seats in CA yet, the model went berserk. Wouldn't be hard to test that honestly, notice it flipping out, and then fix it ahead of time.
Get excited. The next 2 years are gonna be a roadmap for us. Pelosi isn't gonna just sit there and block GOP bills. She'll pass our bills (and get them blocked), and through that, we can see what we might get in 2021. All the GOP did under Obama was ACA-repeal junk. Pelosi will push for more than that since we actually have an agenda, as you noted.
I think Beto's performance in Texas is an argument for him as the top of the ticket. He got Cruz to what, 3 points? That's insanely good in a state that's not really purple yet.
Same spot he had when Pelosi was Speaker last time, so no surprise there.
Really it's Crowley getting beat that opens up a spot in the Dem leadership more than anything. Clyburn might become Whip again but I believe Crowley was right after him in the hierarchy?
How Brat Lost.

Would that be a spot Schiff would go for if he's thinking of going for Speaker once Nancy retires?
