A sitting president up for re-election in his final debate spent more time peddling conspiracy...

theories than talking about past accomplishments and plans for a second term. That's the surest sign of a losing candidate and a failed presidency.

His last, and only chance, is to cheat at the ballot box and hope the courts will intervene.

To put tonight's debate in football terms, Trump needed a big turnover and score

Unlike the Falcons in their Superbowl against the Pats, Joe Biden knows what to do with a big lead late in the game. Don't turn the ball over (make a huge gaffe). Keep possession of the ball and keep scoring. Don't give Trump any opportunity to get back into the game.

Chuck Todd does the work of his corporate bosses which is to ensure that govt remains dysfunctional

by normalizing the hyper-dysfunctional Republicans and brow-beating the Democrats into compromised positions that benefit Chuck's corporate masters.

Just watched a segment with David Plouffe and Michael Steele (the other Michael Steele) where Chuck went out of his way to give credibility to the Hunter Biden story. The age old, "man, Democrats need to have an answer for this", bullshit which does nothing more than give a widely discredited story a measure of credit. By responding, Biden adds even more credibility and now a totally fabricated story becomes a story.

Chuck's objective here is not to help Trump per se. His real objective is to slow Biden's election momentum which could lead to a complete Democratic party take over of the government. Chuck's bosses do not want the Democratic party in this position as it could hinder their business interests. So, they need to keep the failed Republican party afloat by any means necessary.

Next week, Biden and Kamala need to hit PA, WI, and MI hard all week.

Like the last three outs in a baseball game, close out Trump with these three states. Spend Halloween weekend in PA.

Dear Joe Flacco, what are you doing man? Come on man.

You've won a Superbowl. You got big money from the Ravens. You don't need this. You don't need to be playing QB for the Jets at this stage in your career.

Watching Flacco play QB for the Jets is like watching a new Nic Cage movie.

Do all things evil in modern American politics flow from Richard Nixon?

I'm watching Rachel and she showed a Nixon TV telethon for the 1968 race which was produced by a young Roger Ailes, the founder of Fox News.

We also got Karl Rove who cut his teeth on Nixon's re-election campaign in 1972. Roger Stone also worked on that campaign as well.
