I suppose you can continue to post like this and just ignore Hillary's billionaire campaign contributors who influence her policy and decisions, and her media campaign contributors who refuse to mention any corruption in her personal/political/business life.

I've always liked fiction about the wealthy using arms of mass media to control the masses, never thought I'd have such a front row seat to it.


Pretty much this.

It's astounding so many populist lefties are sticking to Hillary. People are so brainwashed by CNN and social media that they are going to vote a hawkish, special interest, Wall street shill that will be pushing TPP, TTIP and other bourgeoisie garbage thru as soon as she's elected. More wars, more spending but hey at least she doesn't offend people, because that's what really matters amiright?

Just honestly can't care enough to put your name in my phone tbh

But an insane emperor mostly famous for watching his empire burn while he sat around being useless is kinda amusing. It'd be a pretty good analogy if you ever had any kind of power over anything

Which races are you working on? I've read that the GOP has a pretty strong chance of holding the Senate (granted, it could change given how much Trump is imploding). Also what is your opinion on the CA Senate race?


Might be easier to list the races I'm not working on haha. Right now my primary consults are VA (pres), the CO/NV Senate races, and ~15 House candidates mostly in the western states. But the level of work I'm doing for them varies wildly, some of those pay for us to be involved day-to-day, others just bought or rented something and need occasional assistance.

Before the GOP convention I'd have said the GOP had about a 45%-50% chance to hold onto 51 seats but now I think it's down to 35% or so. They know they're behind in WI/IL/IN and they aren't contesting CO, so to stop the bleeding at 51 would mean to win every outstanding contested race and I don't know if they could do that unless the outlook got much better for them. They went from looking like they had slight leads in PA/NH to being slightly behind. NC/AZ/OH look like pure tossups. They might have the smallest edge in FL/MO/IA. They'd have to win all 8 plus the rest of the Dem. reach targets for 51 seats.

My only interest in the CA race is seeing how much Trump being the only Republican on the ballot is going to savage the GOP downballot; I imagine it'll hurt them greatly.
