Cory Booker tweeted:

I asked Amy Coney Barrett today if she believes every president should make a commitment to the peaceful transition of power.

She wouldn't answer my question.

That's profoundly concerning for a judge who aspires to join our nation's highest court.

If we work hard, we can build this into a strong trend. Some races don’t tighten, but widen at the end.

A better question for the Great Senator to ask lying traitor barrett would have been, “what have you told your daughters about trying to get a job working in support of and alongside Justice Beer Rapist and Justice Coke Sexual Harasser?”

This feature might actually be not too hard to implement:  Posts must exceed 3 characters in length. 

Puts an end to the heh and lol posts.
Heh. LOL!

You figured out a workaround.  I don't think every poster here would.

I only watched Kamala defend Obamacare and then question Barrett.
For a law professor ACB didn't seem too sharp.  She seemed to sense that Harris was leading to something but had trouble following the classic Socratic method (which teaching law supposedly employs).  First you get someone to agree to one premise, then maybe another and finally spring the trap: If you agree with A & B then doesn't C logically follow.  So ACB just acted peeved about having to answer fairly obvious questions, which she agreed with.

Of course it's obvious that replacing RBG with a Scalia acolyte is devastating to the liberal agenda.  Barrett is a very religious person and Roe v Wade is doomed.  Police will be empowered, criminal rights reduced.  Businesses will be treated as minor deities.  She seems average at best and at 48 is likely to be on the court for 30+ years. 

The failure to defeat a complete ass in Donald Trump has had a lot of hugely negative consequences.  A horrendous and deadly non-response to a pandemic.
Three right-wing Supreme Court justices.  Most of the other policies should be able to be reversed, unless I'm forgetting something.  Though the harm to the media's reputation, the re-ascendancy of racism, mainstreaming of conspiracies and alternative facts all will have lingering harmful effects.

You really have to wonder how a party that brings us W Bush and Trump manages to continue to exist and have supporters.  Hopefully Biden understands that it's time to take the gloves off and reverse course drastically.  Bare-knuckle time or get flattened like usual.

Harrison’s campaign confirmed to The Associated Press that it was funding the ads and the state Democratic Party was paying for the website, calling both “standard, routine advertisements.”

Harrison spokesman Guy King told AP that the campaign is simply “making sure voters know the facts” about Harrison’s “two opponents on the ballot.”

Bledsoe technically ended his campaign earlier this month, however, to back Graham, as Harrison began to rise in polling and fundraising. But Bledsoe acted too late to remove his name from ballots, and with the three candidates listed in alphabetical order, his name appears at the top of the list.

Well, Trump will have a few months to mull over pardoning Donald Trump.

Opposite.

Biden is ahead because he is a nice guy.

Stay the course - get run over - and still become 46.  This is the plan.

If Joe starts punching, all sorts of wild things will come out of that mouche.

Maybe Biden is "ahead" because Trump's is a failed Presidency.
