Victory and pain over in Dem Village

  1. Yeh. The Trump scenario is a train wreck. So I won't try to pretty that up.

    But the dems definitely have their long knives out for Pelosi and Schumer so at least we do not have to watch those two clowns doing a happy dance. I mean, they might do one but we know they are faking it, while they await their little fate.

    The thing that is fugly for the dems- especially in House because they are always up for re-election- is that they don't know what their strategy is for midterms which will come up sooner than they think. Their traditional strategy just fell apart on them. Their traditional response to any loss is to proclaim that they will raise enough money out of Hollywood to buy the whole country and then stick it up the arse of targeted candidates. Really? You spent 95 million to bring Susan Collins down- the last republican in DC from New England- and dem's raised 6 million just on the week for her not-yet-identified opponent when she defended Kavanaugh. Then Collins won by 9 frigging points. Ditto for many other candidates.

    Yup. Republicans took a titanic size hit on the presidential race. But lefties better have a plan for midterms that involves more than just money.

    Oh, I see. Joe's and Skankala's charisma are going to do the deed. Okay. What was I thinking? So far, looks like the bloom is off of Skank's rose before anyone even saw a bloom. She seems to have mastered Joe's ability to hide in the basement but she was hired to be Joe's Visiting Angel and answer the door for him when he cannot get up out of his recliner.

    Anyway. Back to Pelosi. Not feeling the love here in this article.

    'It was a failure': Furious House Democrats unload as leadership promises answers after election losses

    WASHINGTON – House Democratic leadership tried to tamp down fuming lawmakers on a private call Thursday that included finger-pointing, befuddlement and a few tears as Democrats acknowledged being blindsided after losing a number of key races in an election some were projecting as another blue wave.

    Democrats went into Election Day boasting they would not only protect freshmen Democrats in battleground districts that helped them take the House majority, but also see wins in Republican strongholds to expand their majority.

    Neither happened.

    Instead, at least seven incumbent House Democrats lost races, with other contests still too close to call. Democrats, though, are still expected to keep the majority. Senate Democrats similarly had a poor election night, being bested by Republican incumbents again and again in races that they were forecasted to win.

    blamed the media, polling and one another for the losses, according to a source on the at-times heated call. Leadership attempted to paint a rosy picture with former Vice President Joe Biden on track to win the White House, though no winner has been declared as votes in several states are still being counted, .

    It's all bullshit. Just get ON WITH IT already! Let's get the country back to normal, instead of all the neener-neener and booger-flicking!

    And the futures look to have formed a triple-top now, where my entry happens to be. Asia and Euro will probably be having no more of the BS. I hate all these pols and their masticating over who should have done what. STFU already, jerks! Pelosi, AOC, Mnuchin, McConnel and Kamala need to get into their little Satanic circle-jerk and fuck the American people over with no stimulus for ANOTHER 3 months. That'll show 'em!
     
  3. Maybe this is the kick in the ass Pelosi needed to get out...
     
  4. They want Schumer too.

    It would not surprise me to see Pocahontas run for and be chosen as majority leader. Conventional wisdom is that she wants to be Treasury Secretary but I think that has gotten wobbly of late. Minority leader I meant.

    She'll be the next RBG, hanging onto her power until her last dying breath, because she can't get voted out.
