You are indeed reading my mind, JScott.

JimHow

Barde Haut is on a serious roll.

I'm not an expert but I think the New York Times has some big problems with unfunded pension liabilities: https://www.lewrockwell.com/2015/06/eric-englund/the-ny-times-is-going-bankrupt/ They took like a billion dollar loss when they sold the Boston Globe: http://nypost.com/2013/08/03/new-york-times...

Gazin.

JimHow

Wow, coming up... the top 6 presidents of the United States of America. Wow.
I'm in awe. What men!

JimHow

You are right, CV. I did intend to talk about Obama's "Do Nothing" Congress. And you are right, I believe racism is a significant element involved. Fun to watch the Republicans still tightroping this whole Muslim soldier issue. The Democrats have co-opted the Patriotism issue, which used t...

The Jim How Top Ten Greatest Presidents, and their Bordeaux wine counterparts….. #10. Dwight Eisenhower. It was tough, there are about 5 or 6 others who could easily be included in the top 10, I'll mention them in honorable mention at the end. But if I have to pick, I have to include Ike in my top ...

I get a kick out of these old Hitchens videos against the Clintons.
They are therapeutic for a Hillary hater like me.

The drama of 2000 continues….

JimHow

I think that was the 2012 Ridge Geyserville we got at MacArthur's in the spring. Those were tasty.

JimHow

Where have you gone James Reston, Tom Wicker, Anthony Lewis, Russell Baker, William Safire, Hedrick Smith, and on and on, our nation turns its lonely eyes to you.

What a rag now. Do you think they'll still be in print in 5 years?

JimHow

Yeah I read that article. You don't believe anything the NYT has to say, do you?

JimHow

Yeah, but if he wins PA that means he is doing so well that he IS going to win FL, OH, NC, and a lot more. If she can't beat him in PA she's not going to beat him in OH, FL, NC.

JimHow

I'm starting to think it's the other way around Patrick, that it's Clinton who has no margin for error.
I'm thinking PA, uncomfortably, has become a firewall.
If she doesn't win PA she is toast.

JimHow

I believe a 269-269 tie goes to the lame duck House and not the newly elected House?
Not that it is going to matter, I guess.

JimHow

I'm glad I didn't put money on Nate's "Hillary-has-an-85%-chance-of-winning" prediction.

JimHow

Just re-did the map. If we use Nate's latest calculations, where he has Donald winning FL, IA, NH, OH, and NV among others he's likely to win (including, NC), then if ALL of Maine's vote go to Hillary it is 269-269, neither has the required 270, and it goes to the House.

JimHow

I notice big Nate has the Maine second CD leaning Trump. (He has Maine blue on the big map, but divided blue and red in the state by state map. Clinton would likely win the statewide vote, giving her 3 of Maine's 4 electoral college votes. But if Trump wins the second congressional district -- Lewis...

JimHow

Unless I'm misreading this, Patrick, your boy Nate Silver has Trump winning:

This can't be good for the Dems:

Oh boy, here we go, the kinder, gentler Donald Trump: http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/07/30/opinion/trumps-thunderbolts.html?action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=opinion-c-col-left-region&region=opinion-c-col-left-region&WT.nav=opinion-c-col-left-region&am...

What is the word on the 2013 Ridge Lytton Springs?

JimHow

Not feeling it quite as much as you, David.
I'll give you historic.

JimHow

This convention will give the Dems a bit of a bounce, they'll go into august with a lead.
But this will be a dogfight come Labor Day, and we'll be sweating out all the same old swing states, FL, OH, VA, MI, etc.

JimHow

There they are on the stage.

Clinton-Kaine '16

to take on

Trump-Pence '16…

Let's get it on!

JimHow

She just called Donald a little man.

Yay.

JimHow

I'm going to bed, I'll see how Clinton-Kaine look together tomorrow.

JimHow

Second half of the speech was better than the first half.
Going on too long now. I want to go to bed.

JimHow

Hear the women cheering.

Yay!!

JimHow

"No one gets through life alone."

Yay

JimHow

JimHow

this speech is AWFUL!

I mean, she's given some good speeches before, like when she torched Trump a couple weeks ago.
This is wonkish!

WTF!?

JimHow

Thirteen minutes in. Zzzzzzzzz. How are the Sox doing out on the west coast?

JimHow

8 minutes in, still waiting for something that gives me even a single goose bump or even a glisten in my eye.

gotta tell you, that whole Chelsea catastrophe was a major league wet blanket.

JimHow

Chelsea FINALLY sitting next to her dad.

JimHow

I'm feeling it a little, only because I feel a little sorry for her. She seems vulnerable.

Yay.

JimHow

that white outfit…
Boo

JimHow

Shawshank Redemption was a great movie.

JimHow
