Had a look at the front page of the guardian and it looks like he's smashing it. Way out in front.

Let's Talk About Ceps
Trump is leading in most of the remaining swing states, and if he takes those, Biden is toast. BUT, that's just based on in-person voting in several states, which haven't even started counting mail-in ballots yet, and those are very heavily weighted towards Biden.

just like version said, every time, just when you think you're out, they pull you back in

but no, I was about to go to sleep then I checked one last time and saw that Sleepy Joe had pulled ahead in Wisconsin

Trump is deploying the Roy Cohn playbook

yeah but he doesn't have Cohn's discipline. he couldn't keep his mouth shut so everyone was ready for him to do this. even Fox didn't bite on it.

not that he won't continue to follow through on the groundwork he's tried to lay, I'm sure

Biden's probably about to take the lead in Michigan too btw, again on urban mail in ballots

if he pulls out Wisconsin and Michigan (and holds Nevada) that's it, fucking ballgame, barring lawsuits etc

not that falling into the trap of calling it yet, but yeah

Election night is the only time I can get remotely hype about the idiot spectacle of American presidential politics

just like the World Cup is the only time I find soccer at all compelling

four years of interminable drudgery and yet every time, despite knowing better, you get sucked in by the electricity of the event itself

If Biden wins is it going to be possible for him to undo some of the damage Trump's done or will he be blocked by congress as Obama (apparently) was?

Why are democrat voters more likely to mail in? More conscientiousness? Care about Covid? vs older traditional ‘I’ll do it like I’ve always done it’ people? Crass generalisations i know

the question you should be asking, Sid, is if Trump is really the prefered choice of American conservatism, and if the dems are at this middling average, why he isn't utterly thumping them. and you'll end up realising that people like Hali and Rubio are antagonists to djt.

Stan is a rare orchid who has had a totalising vision of the world, vouchsafed by an Angel, as an interlocking structure of parts geared towards an The Inevitable Moral Ending. history as a unified process in which higher order mechanisms enfold and capture lower order ones, and mesh the individual with the group, and group with the Everything, in its march towards dematerialisation and ultimate cosmic unity.

It's easy to get frustrated with him for various reasons, but he's very young, and as I say, a rare specimen that should be provided the conditions needed to flourish. A little of Marxism to mitigate some of his naïveté but but don't bury him under it.

oi do you remember that time when you pushed me for 3 days to read a j. h. prynn harmony piece? How comes you've flipped your tune on Herbert! there is no cosmic unity on dissensus, it is just a maelstrom.
