This was an entertaining beatdown.

On the positive side , people who go to these religious gatherings tend to be conservative...

I guess she couldn't get her nails done.

I really hope so. Can we have fresh blood? I have always liked her, but time to go young.

I think some of our companies should collaborate with the Serum Institute of India. They can produce vaccines quickly. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/coronavirus-vaccine-india-serum-institute/2020/11/10/bbd7509c-0fb0-11eb-bfcf-b1893e2c51b4_story.html

I think he is still hurt. I guess we are not going to get 10 sacks from him.

They need better Data Scientists. I was reading the other day that Republicans were mining social media such as twitter and facebook to make people vote. As a result, Trump gained 10 million from the 2016 numbers. Of course, Republicans didn't care about the virus, so they knocked on more doors. That mattered too, but it appears to me that Republicans use certain things better. With PhD types leaning more towards Democrats than Republicans, you need to do better and find elite data scientists. Republicans did better tham expected locally. So they will draw the map however they want. And yes, they will use Data Scientists and Statisticians for this. The newer maps will be even more gerrymandered. So, Democrats are screwed.

We just need to wait. This is not peer reviewed. 90% would be spectacular, but I am not sure if I believe it. Hopefully, if this is correct, children have been tested too. (I wonder if they were waiting to release the data until the election)

Pete Buttigieg is a near-certainty for Biden's cabinet. https://www.axios.com/pete-buttigieg-joe-biden-cabinet-ec5af2b1-c884-4d50-ae41-e40bee7dde8b.html

Man, this is just sad. I immigrated to the United States in 1997. I have watched him since then.

The outbreak this winter is going to be horrible. I met my parents (and brother) this week. We have decided not to do anything this thanksgiving. Yeah, i am going to isolate myself. I am not even going grocery shopping. We just order things online.

I doubt that. He probably thought he would get more votes if he made that statement. It's just that simple. It's not White vs Black vs Brown vs whatever. Did anybody else say that? It was just Biden I think. So one guy played politics.

I will just mention what I want the party to do (which some people have insinuated here). I want the party to be ruthless. Pack the court to name one. But given the coalition they try to build, not sure if this is possible if Biden wins. So they will probably continue as is. Nothing will be "fixed" or adjusted. It is supposed to be the "moderate" party. Now if Biden loses, the party will move left. There will be no choice in this case.

I don't think he is. There are other jobs for him. How do you define "qualified"? I suppose because Trump beat everybody in 2016, he was the most qualified?

Also, was Obama more experienced than Hillary? Nope. I supported Hillary, but guess what, in the presidential election, Obama received record support from minorities. So come to think of it, in politics, you don't necessarily pick the most qualified. You need to build a coalition. So there is a calculation you need to make. It's not simple as "pick the best qualified".

Of course, I agree with that. However, you need to take into account the fact that there are voters that need to be motivated. A lot of minorities don't believe in LGBTQ issues. What would happen if you pick Mayor Pete? I think Trump wins. I really like Mayor Pete, but there is homophobia in all communities.

Yeah, this is true. No way is Mayor Pete more experienced than Kamala Harris. I think Kamala Harris was the best candidate for vice president. Who else would you pick? There is a strategy here. You want to motivate minorities to vote.

Well, I think you are right about that. Not just wealthier suburbs, but they also favor private schools.

IMO, Mayor Pete would have been a good candidate, being part of the LGBTQ community. He is a smart guy. Being the inclusive party that the democrats are, we should strive to include everybody. Heck, everything in the country should be inclusive. There can be negative consequences otherwise (like in the TJ example). It is easy to say "best" people, but people may not like the result. In fact, I will guarantee it happens. Try to include everybody.

How would you feel if best people are all Asians? Whites are already screaming about Thomas Jefferson high school. I read it in the forums all the time. I don't believe the "best person" crap you all are spewing. You would change your mind in a hurry.

The country is, what, 40% minority now, or close to it? You mean to tell me that there aren't minorities that are experienced enough out there? Forget politics for a second. If things were fully fair, it would not be Whites who benefit. Look at Thomas Jefferson high school. It is 80% Asian. Now Whites are trying to change it. Personally, I feel that schools should be all-inclusive. Doesn't feel good if there isn't diversity. Similarly, had there not been any "holistic" selection, the ivy leagues would be dominated by Asian Americans. The only group not benefiting from this "holistic" selection process are Asians. This is the truth.You will say, I want the best person right now. But IMO Whites will scream if the best people aren't whites like in the case of Thomas Jefferson high school. Proof of people screaming because TJ is, uh, not too White: https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/915086.page

My 5 year old daughter has been learning remotely this year. The public school is in Baltimore County. The teacher appears to be doing a damn good job. Of course, she is not able to play with friends, but it is working well. Classes are full time.

They don't care about losing business I suppose. I had a home inspector come to a house I was about to buy. The first thing he does is remove his mask because he thinks it's a hoax. Uhh, okay. Then for the entirety of 2 hours he is inspecting my house, he is complaining about all sorts of bad things liberal. Did you know that BLM was trying to change the words "master bedroom"? I paid the guy. I had to buy the house. Didn't want any arguments. So I just nodded and listened.

Yes, do all that, and pack every single court out there, even the jury duty types, whatever the **** they are called.
