As usual, good job, Surak. What I still find to be mystifying is how many people (almost half of voters) could with good conscience (or with any) vote for a totally unqualified puppet candidate. That alone gives me great grief concerning a viable future for this once great republic. It is also mind boggling that so many did not cast their votes for a candidate, rather they were thrown away voting against the opposition candidate. Can such a large percentage be so stupid or are they merely the victims of superb brainwashing propaganda?

We’re always told to “trust the data” but there’s very few people able to analyse it honestly.

That’s my conspiratorial bias in practice.

Have you noticed that a remarkably alert and cogent biden has stated that they will peacefully hand over power?

This after lying about everything and anything.

Am I correct in my hypothesis that abortion mainly tends to reduce the voting base of the Democrat party in the long term, wven though the issue itself probably boosts it in the short term? Or does it function like a firewall that will help red states stay red, if red states get rid of it?

The ebb and flow of American groupings, seem more predictable with each election cycle. Your posts support understanding. Sorry for your recent cold, hopefully it won’t be persistent!
