As long as Tim dosen't do his thing, pretty much the only way for Dems is up at this point.  :hmm:

It is not over until its over. Lots of close elections would have to go our way for that prediction to bear out and 25% is still a good chance for success. Democratic voters still have to show up and we kind of suck ass at that.

I'd have to see what the alternative would be.  In 2020.  Why would I root against my own party here in 2018?

Because you think it'd be good to have a check on some of the things they've been doing?

Hmmm, food for thought.

You know I am all for banning Tim, but the other thing we need to remember is....wait, there is no other thing.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

:hmm: There are other rooting interests here.  Which country is your favorite?

Pretty sure he has to say Argentina. That's not a fair question.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

What's the second rooting interest, in case Argentina gets knocked out by England in the quarterfinal?

Because you think your country is more important than your party.

Sure, but if he doesn't agree with the party's take on what's best for the country, why would he call them his party?

You can be a member of a political party and not agree with all of their policies or candidates. :o
