What if this is a Repeat of the 2004 Primary Season?
Let us cast our minds back sixteen years, to late November of 2003. Every pundit on the tube knew that Howard Dean was gonna be our nominee the following year. I couldn't find even one political analyst who broke with the consensus opinion.
Then, of course, the actual VOTING began, and the original front-runner, John Kerry, whom pretty much all the experts had written off as Dean's reputed popularity soared, kicked the Vermont Governor's ass!
What if there's a sequel this cycle? What if Joe Biden shocks the hell out of Elizabeth Warren in Iowa and New Hampshire? The former Veep has continued his gaffe-prone ways, though said ways have been exaggerated by the "We Want a Horse Race" media. And I am seriously disappointed in his anachronistic stance on marijuana.
But if he's the nominee, I'll not only vote for him, but I'll pound the pavement, knock on doors and annoy the shit out of people with my phone calls. (I don't care if they're pissed as long as they turn out capital-D on Election Day) BECAUSE DONALD JOHN TRUMP MUST BE REMOVED FROM OFFICE FOR THE REPUBLIC TO SURVIVE! I MEAN THAT LITERALLY! VOTE LIKE YOUR COUNTRY DEPENDS ON IT, BECAUSE IT DOES!
I hope that everyone hear is determined for vote for and aggressively advocate for Joe Biden, or Elizabeth Warren, or Pete Buttigieg, or whomever the party ends up nominating. We cannot afford purity, resentment, or opting out, because Freedom Itself is under threat!

The day after federal health officials announced a recall of select salad products, they issued a safety alert to include romaine lettuce harvested from Salinas, California.
On Friday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advised consumers not to eat and retailers not to sell the lettuce harvested in the California region, including "whole heads of romaine, hearts of romaine, and packages of precut lettuce and salad mixes which contain romaine, including baby romaine, spring mix, and Caesar salad."
Most romaine lettuce products are labeled with a harvest location showing where they were grown, according to the CDC.

Trump's Ukraine extortion scheme comes clear -- all roads lead to Putin
On NOVEMBER 21, 2019 at 7:30PM, Amanda Marcotte wrote in Salon:
But, nope, it was another day of riveting testimony that made excruciatingly clear that the entire Ukraine extortion scheme was directed by President Trump — and was not, as Republicans have begun desperately hinting, some "freelancing" by Trump's subordinates in which he somehow played no part.
To add to the excitement, Hill basically warned Republicans that their efforts to protect Trump are turning them into stooges of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Most importantly, Hill and Holmes filled in the final holes that allowed the full story of Trump's extortion scheme to come fully into view. None of the Republican claims that Trump's behavior was ambiguous enough to allow for an innocent explanation hold water.

As a filthy, godless newbie, I had planned to lay low and not post a header until I'd been here awhile, but I'm a huge Smith fan!
