When Tom says new problems, what he means to say is Sanders winning.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Didn’t read past the title yet but I’m a swing voter. And given Nebraska’s elite split electorate my swing vote matters.

Proud swing voter myself . . . big swing coming if it's #Bloomberg2020 (maybe even Pete)

nice, you could do your part to swing Alabama for the first time in my entire lifetime.

Sorry Bro. that’s not gonna happen.   Doug is gonna have hard time keeping his seat.   If Doug gets Space Command Hdqrs at Redstone in Huntsville, he should be a lock.

Oh I’m fully aware that there is a zero percent chance it happens

Not sure what to think about her stuff.

i've followed her for a while and i pay attention to what she says.  i would say she's not terribly intellectually honest or rigorous and i think the guy in the article that says her point (negative partisanship) is widely known and accepted is right.  that said, she argues for the application more fiercely and more eloquently that pretty much anyone else and it is an extremely important point.

i wouldn't go to her for an accurate or precise attempt to quantify the odds of any individual race, but i think like 99.9% of the population could improve their understanding of how voters behave by listening to her.

thread with examples.

That is exactly the crap you put on the white boards to put your sticky notes under. Board 1 “Synergistic” board 2 “Anergiatic”. Put examples of how you work today under each. Wow, I like your examples Helen. Let’s take a 15 minute energy pause and regroup ready to talk about each one.

Also it is important to make sure your mindset is “above the line”

I didn't read, but wouldn't her position be that each race is pretty much 100% determined? If so, you wouldn't expect her to give odds. And I'd agree with her on that viewpoint.

Not that the race is determined, but people’s minds are basically made up on who they support (except gE’s own swing voter Dax).

So her theory suggests politicians should be spending 100% of their efforts on getting their supporters to turn out rather than trying to win over new voters. You can certainly still place odds on how successful those efforts will be.

Pete was on Bill Maher's show last Friday and I noticed he dropped several of those while they were talking.  There was something mildly annoying about his communication style that I couldn't quite place my finger on but this tweet made the light bulb go off in my head.  What a bunch of trite garbage.

Congrats to Mayo Pete! The average smelling moderate middle of the road guy we can all rally behind in the middle.
