  1. Burns was a beast in playoffs and would be an incredible get.
  2. Agree dont buy the hype, And think Nelson remind me a bit of Hank... Guess I need to see what your talking about before jumping that train
  3. I see that more withNelson guess didnt see enough of Ghule.
  4. Guhle is not kicking anyone's butt he is too affable.
  5. really Varlamov hmmm to the Avs interesting
  6. is it june 24th yet say around eight pm
  7. yeh i know, and she is gonna hammer him on hispanics, women, promises, financial accounting, minorities, presidential temprament etc, etc. almost predictably boring...,
  8. He does that and he is done... If he comes in ill prepared he is done.
  9. Part of debating strategy but will depend on how well she counters and if she can needle him in to losing his cool and saying something really stupid. Then ask him to further explain himself show casing both his lack of Presidential temprament and his lack of knowledge.
  10. Maybe, big if especially with his issues and she will be ably prepped. Still he is a good debater and this will be an issue for her.
  11. There are many reasons to why this is a truism, but besides winning she would do this anyway to help get Dems elected to take back over Congress, part of the reason Republicans are pulling their hair out right now. The Senate is in play and now the House is a possibility depending on ground game turnout... scarin the bejeebus outta of the Rs
  12. ? I still think people are under estimating Casey Nelson, I like his size over Ghule
  13. Repeating a recent disgruntled Republican rumor... Sounds like Rs have become enamoured with Sanders' theories...
  14. Got my Dad flowers, hugged my boys.
  15. So with Vesey likely along do Sabres go D or go after Keller and look at D later on??? If Sabres get Vesey and Keller got to say quiet a coop.
  16. The general election is a different animal. You need the party organization behind you full force. Like the Bills winning the AFC championship in the early nineties, but couldnt take the next step. Its a different animal. PS some hx on the filibuster https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filibuster_in_the_United_States_Senate
  17. See previous discussion. Already posted and as already stated Vesey can only sign an entry level contract. Interesting to see but worth gamble to have 6 weeks plus to have Jack work openly on him.
  18. Winger/ Center for Jack interesting because they both have complementary skill sets, often jack looks like the wing on that line especially on D.
  19. Agreed and he gets 8 weeks to exclusively negotiate. Seriously, trading one third round pick outta 4, this isnt football where a third rounder can step in this year.
  20. Yeh just Gods news:(
  21. What abt Laine?? old man disease setting in ?
  22. True but the 60 vote majority for a fillibuster has been around for a long time, my guess from JEFFERSON, best info probably is "Rules of The Senate" by Lyndon Baines Johnson, may have a better answer when I can get at my pocket constitution.
  23. Because the vote of 60 would be needed to sustain a likely Presidential Veto, I would have to assume. Yes you need 60 votes to end a filibuster, this rule is to prevent the tyranny of the majority, part of the checks and balances set up by the framers. Id have to reread my history of its implementation and the use of a fillibuster within Senate rules.
  24. This kind of research is not new. It plays to the idea of branding and brand loyalty and marketing 101, it still doesnt mean that there are people that are undecided and can be persuaded. It does mean that the the only way there is a poltical change in peoples minds is if there is a seminal event that makes people uncomfortable enough in their widely held views to cause them to consider an alternative. Even that changed can be temporary if not reinforced. The Great Depression was one such event, the Clinton election and over- reaching of the Dem majority was another allowing for the return to the status quo so called Republican Revolution of the legislative branches. I forget who originally I read in poly sci classes who postulated this theory. Will do some research, but remember that there were a number of authors discussing various forms of it. It is not cut and dry but works as a general rule of thumb.
