    Wait. The poster with the most, uh... titillating avatar on the site is female?  Huh.

    Women love boobs. That’s why sometimes they buy more boobs. Guys like boobs too, and they aren’t mad when women decide to buy more boobs. But then it gets complicated.

    This is the most interesting primary race right now. 

    Here’s McGrath with an extremely condescending cheap shot, and she’s rightfully getting dragged for it. She is literally campaigning as a Trump apologist 

     

    Came to this thread as soon as I saw this and glad you got here first. She’s gotta go. This is trash.

    Are we pretending there aren’t hours of video showing Trump appearing mentally impaired, having trouble getting words out, making no sense, and generally appearing off physically? It’s easily found. He’s clearly challenged and despite what his fake doc says is not in any sort of great physical shape. I’ve seen no evidence he’s better physically or mentally than Biden

  4. My notes from call

    Beto carried the 9 seats needed, 9 more within 5%

    22 targeted highly contested seats, spotlight 3 below

    HD-108- 67.4% bachelor degree, Beto won by over 10%, same candidate is running again

    HD-138 near Jersey Village, Houston, Bellaire

    HD-97- Southwest Fort Worth area

    HOW DO THEY DECIDE WHERE TO TARGET?

    Believe their data team is best in country. Heavy investment in concentrated voter targeting. Obvious targeting 9 seats that Beto won. These districts are moving that way- but moving faster than most realize.

    11 of 12 pickups from 2018 overlapped 50% of targeted congressional seats. 16 potential pickup districts this year overlap 67% of targeted congressionals this year.

    Population growth and performance at top of the ticket huge deciding factors in selecting where to target. Belief is Republicans squeezing most juice out of smallest available area vs expanding their tent to new groups.

  5. Stacey Abrams really should use her organization within Georgia to push the message about Early Voting. Really shouldn’t have to come to that result if the early period started May 18th.

    Just remember, the GOP doesn't need 70% of Hispanics to vote for them in order to win, as is the case with the Democrats.  They can win vast swaths of governorships and Senate seats with just ~40% of the Hispanic vote (obviously with other metrics still holding and/or improving).    

    Reading this made me flash back to UT and having James Enelow repeating in a monotone voice about 60% of the white vote will clinch.

    McSally, Tillis and Ernst are all on that committee. I wonder if it was an unanimous vote or where they stood. Low poll numbers motivate politicians.

    Was a voice vote, Hawley, the Senator from Missouri that a good number of GOP think has a presidential future said he voted NO.

    Regarding Matthew Gaines. One of the issues for under-represented voices is that the historical record can be so spotty because....reasons. As you pointed out, that information may not exist. He might have been a real go-getter and then virtually silenced by omission other than specific historical records here and there. I'm not telling you anything you don't know already.

    If those folks opposing it had donated and helped get the statue built back when the idea was first proposed then having a dedicated area with two men who worked on behalf of the school had the potential to be a slight more unifying symbol of overcoming the painful history and would have existed for a longer time than today's "ACK!!  CHANGE!! WE CAN'T HAVE CHANGE! message.

    I’m sorry, but I am still haunted by this story.  Not about the part where Lady G’s taint is akin to a dark, fertile soil that plays host to more growths than the Amazon.   No, I mean what on earth is going on with the escort’s thought process?  Let’s walk through this.

    ”So, I see this guy’s taint, and I think, ho hum, no big deal, it’s just covered in shit.  I get a towel and start scrubbing between his ass cheeks, figuring he just had diarrhea and didn’t clean his ass or something.  I’m good with everything so far.  

    But, much to my chagrin, when I look down at the towel, why there’s no rotten, festering shit caking his body down there at all.  No, the man has moles on his skin.  Moles!  Look, I can handle this job when all I have to do is clean an old man’s shit off his taint right before I lick it, sexually pleasure him in various other ways, and then take his load on my face - that’s obviously all well and good - but damn it, I will not look at moles!  Some things are just too degrading!”

    Well poop can be removed, genital warts sticks with you.

  10. He phoned in so it was a little muffled, but his reasoning was along the lines of I wasn’t there in the 50s to put it up and I shouldn’t be here to take it down. Just a wild explanation. He mentioned 30 minutes earlier that he had mostly calls into his office in support of keeping it up. He was also the last one to vote and knew it was going away regardless, so it looks to me it was calculated. Gary Vickes also said there was more support in favor, albeit not a wide margin, but still voted to remove. The county judge Whitley sounded open to removing all Confederate statues in the county, not just the courthouse grounds.

    When trump issues some ridiculous, racist, and unconstitutional executive order, all I see from the Democrats on here is glee about how the tables will turn where their person gets in office and issues their own unconstitutional executive orders now that unconstitutional executive orders have been normalized. 

    Where? People have said the next one up can issue one to reverse, but I’ve seen nothing about tit for tat.

    Yeah, people in San Antonio and Houston don't visit Victoria unless it's for a family funeral.

    On a serious note, Victoria still has a shit ton of institutional racism. Fuck that place.

    Local paper estimated anywhere from 600-750 people participated. No incidents, no arrests. 

  13. I know all backgrounds and ages are represented in the protests, but it looks to me like a youth movement is popping upas well. 
     

    anecdote, my mom called me this morning and said there was going to be a protest in town and they are busing people in to Victoria from San Antonio and Houston. I stopped her, went straight to the point and called it bullshit. She said some neighborhood watch posted some social media rumors from the police department.  Never in my 31 years on Earth has she ever mentioned the neighborhood watch one time. I went to the VPD Facebook page and of course there is a big post saying none of it is true and it’s  being organized by locals. Thinking people would leave San Antonio or Houston to take a bus to Victoria to loot is the height of crazy.

  14. Democratic debate between MJ Hegar and Royce West tonight. MJ has skipped multiple candidate forums during the primary and has resulted with Royce getting most of the previous candidates endorsements. With BLM protests flaring up, it could bring a highly engaged number of voters for the runoff and would benefit him, IMO. Starts at 6 and can be viewed on the links at the top post.
