If people took midterms, this seriously . . . We would be doing, a whole lot better, as a country.

Not only that, but if Democrats would do more than just rally every 4 years for a presidential election, we'd be doing so much better. I give credit to the GOP for one thing – they seem to treat every election, whether its for president or Congress all the way down to city council and school board seats, as a life-or-death effort. The fact is, the population of this country is not as conservative as our elected leaders. It's a credit to the Republicans that they understand that you build national power by respecting every election at every level and working hard on it.

democrats, are talkers . . . republicans, are doers.  part of the reason why trump won.

yawn…so much Monday quaterbacking.. all of a sudden the democratic party is such a disaster… if she'd won you'd all be writing the death knell of the Republican Party. .heck you WERE writing it before the election…


there's no need to over exaggerate.. things are bad enough.

morning

It's true, my buddy and I were talking last night and marveling at the thought that just six weeks or so ago, we thought the GOP was just fucking itself to death over Trump. But I've believed my point on the last page for years – the GOP is better at mobilizing at the local and state level. That's evidenced by the fact that something like 38 state houses are republican and most governors are. The GOP's demographics might be old and dying out, but they still vote in every election, whereas Hillary couldn't inspire the turnout she needed to win.
I'm not criticizing or Mon morning QBing, just thinking about what happened and some of the reasons why

Farting in the wind, so to speak

The fact is Comey totally fucked her over hard twice if not three times…never forget that…

She should have trounced him and she did not.. obviously the American people did not much like her in the end…

But it was very close.. .much closer than it looks in the electoral college..


Beating ourselves up about how we are out of touch and all this hogwash is silly…imho….. remember we are the only ones who give a shit about the working people…

Trump comes in with the weakest mandate ever… he only came up with like 46% of the votes… many who voted for him did it in desperation (we can't have that criminal in the White House…yup, they bought into the lies..) and not as an endorsement of him….to me he takes power wounded… I think he will be reelected in four years but we shall see…

the early signs are his presidency will not be a good one…but who knows.. I have to hope for a good one.. by the time I think he will be done I will be 54! What choice do I have?

Fucking nut job

CPP just can't seem to catch a break
I've yet to actually catch a show there…looks like all this insanity might actually close the place
Isn't that the Comet sign that used to be in Adams Morgan in the 90's, loved that liquor store

they've had like two interesting shows in a decade… the raincoats (missed.. a mistake… although they went on at like 2 am or something) and david j


i doubt they will ever get anything else… its all hobo rock..

i do like the joint and the pizza is great

amanda's various bands have played there often..

There are already claims the CPP shooter is an actor that it's a false flag.. I'm sure it's only a matter of time there is a gofundme campaign to cover this nutjob's legal expenses

So there is an actor on imdb with the same name as the shooter…

So it is the same dude, so I guess the whole incident was staged to discredit trump supporters is true.  Who knew the liberals had it in them to pull it off

well if that is all true- and I know nothing- liberals did not have it in them to pull it off….

don't throw out that opinion/analysis quite yet.  the GOP got into the white house with a candidate who isn't a GOP'er.  he doesn't represent traditional GOP values, his platform is wildly inconsistent with GOP policy. 

in other words republicans got back into the white house as parasites.  they couldn't get in on their own merits.

well that may be but they are all getting into power like that and their ideas on most things will predominate… you don't think Trump will represent their ideas on the environment or abortion or in the courts?

I don't see his platform as wildly inconsistent.. maybe on trade but who knows what he'll do on trade

we really don't know what he will do but we know based on the people he is appointing that its the same GOP people…
