Looks like Tester has probably pulled it out.

Yup. He's been around ~90% win probability at NYT. Luckily, it looks like the Senate isn't going to be as bad as it could have been. Even Nelson could potentially pull it off.

Got a better chance of Sinema pulling ahead in Maricopa County in AZ than Nelson finding some magical missing bucket of 40k votes.

Just heard no teleprompter for Il Dulce, just notes.

If he can read he may or may not go mental
If he can't then he's mental

Afterwards? In either case he's Twit.

If anyone is interested, Zardoz is addressing the mortals.

I think Biden would be strong with those groups too. He is not flashy, he appears to speak honestly. He is pro gun, but, that is about the only think I can think of as a position that people on the Left might not like.

Also, I think he fits well with the anti-PC crowd. He is known for saying things that are true, but, are considered gaffs. I think post Trump that could be a strength for him.

Joe Biden supported the Iraq War and that is immediately disqualifying to any "leftist" if the term is going to have any meaning at all.

I refuse to vote for him, I don't care if he's running against Trump. It's morally bankrupt for the party to keep running these Iraq war monsters.

Now he is congratulating himself and expresses bitterness at the press and there was no Blue Wave. Now focusing on the Senate victory

I get that. Support Trump's reelection.

This presser is like digging through a turd to find a peanut.

Yes, that's exactly what the DNC would be doing by nominating a ghoul like Biden.

Hey, vote as you will. I'll be the first to say it. Next time it may come down to a greater difference in evils and I'll act according to my perceptions at that time.

Hehe, it was the Republicans now who were to blame and not the Dems are the solution in cooperation with Trump.

The hats have changed colors in seconds. Oh, he's selling the Senate investigating the House on Trump's behalf. Yeah, Trump has thrown the Reps under the bus and they'll step in the meat grinder for him.

I don't understand the point of this conference. Is he supposed to be telling us what we already know or just babble incoherently like a broken record? He sounds really tired; must have stayed up late last night.

What has Trump done that is more evil than the Iraq war?

What has Trump done which is not evil? BTW, he was not against the war. Becoming the fascist leader of the nation by defining the meaning of Congress and by extension the law at a whim is also a thing.

Say what you will, he's not as bad as that radical zionist Jesus, that wife beater Gandhi, or that long-time jailbird felon Mandela.

Oh, Bj200! You are simply too pure for this planet!

He's taking credit and saying how he'll cooperate with the Dems while throwing Republicans into political hell if the Dems drop investigations. He's also pro environment.

Q and A now.

It's one part publicly shame those who didn't embrace me. One part self congratulating himself for the senate. One part toddler learns new trick and tries showing off to mom and dad.

Yeah, I paused it at the beginning because I had to go do something; I'm about five minutes behind.

He's being all nice to the Dems because he knows they're gunning for him. Mueller is coming and you can't stop it, jackass.

Democrats creating a caricature of reality and attacking it as if it were really what Trump is, again. Meanwhile, how many innocent thousands died in Iraq due to our actions? Hillary is a good decision maker...
