This is why I support the LibDems.

I do not understand what you mean by 'inherently' and 'racist'.

I mean 'charged' not 'arrested.

Yes, but once he -did- show his ID and it was established that he was in the right, the cops should've apologized and backed off. Not arrested him. I'm not quite sure how Nicholas Cage suggests anything different.

I got one minute fifteen seconds in before stopping the video.

I'm sure she's great, but it is really that hard to present information in an interesting way?

Of course they'll take him. Since when do they care about what happened yesterday, unless it benefits him?

Theyd' take him, and they'd spin the whole thing as one long triumph for the Republicans.

What are the chances he'll switch parties again, return to the R fold?

I'd wager he'd do that in a heartbeat, if they handled Toomey somehow.

Me for Wardlaw.

And I intensely dislike Cass 'Even Liberal' Sunstein.

Answering my own question, I'm strongly behind Wardlaw.

And, um, perfect name!

Staying purely political, then, who is the most progressive Hispanic possibility? The one that will a) guarantee they go apeshit and b) move that Overton window (pardon the phrase) leftward?

I've never quite understood the idea that your first offer oughtta placate the opposition. It's like offering a car salesman full price this time, thinking that he'll go easy on your next time. When you're buying your riding unicorn.

I was trying to explain EFCA to someone, and realized I don't understand it myself.

If >50% of workers sign the cards, a union is certified, right?
But if 30% of workers request a secret ballot vote, then that happens, yes?

So what results if both of the above happen at the same time?

Doesn't seem to be working.

Nothing on our responsibility to punish any criminal activity committed by the Bush administration?

That's the hope I'm enjoying.

That's a technicality. Like the number of pledged delegates.

And I hope Armstrong understand that Bowers's argument isn't 'Obama needs to win PA and Clinton needs to win PA'.

It's, 'For this to be over, Obama needs to win PA.'

I'm pretty fond of both candidates, but some of the trash being written by supporters--especially when pretending a sorta of above-the-fray journalistic neutrality--is embarrassing.
