Oh yeah. This is akin to 2006, which was the last time the Ds won any statewide state office. The state is probably a point or two more R than it was in 2006, but I think D enthusiasm and such makes up for that. Right now, they're polling even. If it stays even I expect Cordray to pull it out. He'll get slaughtered in 2022. But, that's another story.

Just wondering ....... why does anyone pay any attention to this soap opera crap?
There actually is some substantive reporting out there (e.g., the shit sandwich Recip Erdogan has created for himself in Turkey, Ali Khamenei's open criticism of the handling of Iran's economy by Iran's ruling elite, the UK's Brexit debacle) ..... some good stuff and there is plenty more important stuff to read. The shit show that is the soap opera of the Trump presidency deserves ignoring.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.

This shit show soap/opera is your government. If you think it should be ignored, then you have bigger issues on the table than Turkey, Iran or Brexit. Omarosa was employed for the very same unexamined reasons that tariffs on Turkey were hiked at a moment when you could have just sat back and watched Erdogan drown in his own hubris, and then lend a helping hand to the next guy in a way that could have brought that country back into the Western orbit once it finishes eating its humble pie. But that tweet was so perfectly timed I wouldn't be surprised if we found out that Erdogan paid Trump to tweet it. Quite possibly permanent damage done to US interests as a result. Ability to project power overseas diminishing by the day.
That said, people pay attention to the soap opera crap because it's a lot easier to get past the facts and go straight to opining, which is what many of us here do even when the topic may be perceived as serious. Many of you here were quite confident in the UK's ability to thrive on its own because you think regulations are inherently bad, failed to apply skepticism to the notion that the eurozone is overly regulated, or didn't understand the value of at least having a say in how they are formed.

Folks have made up their mind on the fitness of PDJT. His policies matter. His character is decided. The Omarosa shitshow is irrelevant at this point.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

Omarosa is irrelevant, not the shit show. Completely unqualified people staff the upper echelons of gov't (including the top most seat). Turnover is higher than the last 4 administrations. Precautions against foreign intelligence activities, (like taking an unsecure phone into the Situation Room to secretly record conversations) are flaunted. Amoral enablers, like Baghdad Sarah and Devin Nunes, blatantly put forth untruths to bolster a serial liar's distorted reality. A self centered President dispenses with disinformation and personal attacks via social media in order to widen political chasms and inflame public opinion. Allies who have shed blood for this country are kicked to the curb while the President gleefully obeys orders from a hostile communist country. With this administration, slime oozes in and slime oozes out, and indictments follow their criminal activity.
Yeah, the shit show matters. It ilustrates America's descent to banana republic status at the hands of a deranged President. Ignoring the shit show, instead of pushing back against it, only quickens America's descent. Trump is a shit stain on the honor of this country, and those that enable or blindly support that fool do America a disservice.“Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend.
