        • So basically it’s the plot of a boring Bond or Johnny English spy movie, but China. Gotcha. 😆 Significant press conference for sure. I had no idea it was happening to our country!

            • Bolduc turning NH into an actual competitive race and the general situation in Arizona ought to terrify the Ds.

              And I'm sure the response will be to tell voters they're focusing on the wrong shit (food, rent, living) and that democracy is at stake!!!!!!! (much like claims of JIM CROW ON STEROIDS!!!!).

              I probably should have known better. I know how election cycles go and I knew there was always going to be some sort of media-driven "things are looking up" portion of the cycle. But the fundamentals are soooooooo bad for the Ds and, well, the leadership -- the President and VP -- are as completely and totally incompetent as any D since....Christ...Buchanan?

              We'll see how the Oz-Fetterman debate goes. I'm still in the 50-50 Senate boat, but I dunno....things aren't looking all that promising for the Progs.

                • Math scores decline sharply nationwide on average. In, e.g., NYC and other havens of Prog governance, math scores drop by a shiton. Meanwhile, Florida ends up with its highest ever math proficiency ranks (for 4th and 8th grades).

                  • Math scores have declined and speech therapists are also reporting a massive uptick in toddlers and preschoolers with delayed speech problems.

                    I can't imagine how that could be happening.

                    • That's only because math is racist. So New York, as the good guys, are against it and Florida, as the great Satan, is teaching math... to children...

                          • Charles Cooke:

                            In the Times, Jonathan Weisman and Neil Vigor write that:
                            Democratic candidates, facing what increasingly looks like a reckoning in two weeks, are struggling to find a closing message on the economy that acknowledges the deep uncertainty troubling the electorate while making the case that they, not the Republicans, hold the solutions.

                            No such message is available. It’s too late. If President Biden had come into office last year and resolved to address the economy as it actually existed, he might have got away with a lot of what came next. But he didn’t. Instead, he decided that the real issues facing the country were an inconvenience to his agenda, and he resolved to ignore them as a result.

                            The result was eighteen months of hand-waving — it’s not going to happen; it’s going to happen but not much; it’s going to happen but not for long; it’s actually fine — coupled with a whole bunch of extraordinarily inappropriate policy measures that have made matters considerably worse. So utterly contemptuous have Biden and his party been toward inflation and its symptoms that, as late as August of this year, they still thought it would be a good idea to name a bill that they’d wanted for years the “Inflation Reduction Act,” and to hope that nobody noticed. Unsurprisingly, everybody noticed.

                            And now, two weeks before the midterms, they want to pivot back to the economy and insist that they feel everyone’s pain? Nah. The time for that has passed. This time, the pain is going to be theirs.

                              I thought the map in that article was interesting. I would say school closure duration was correlated and related to scores, but not directly causal.

                              • I'm guessing the remote learning stuff hurts certain subjects more than others. Reading CAN be fun and probably doesn't need as much goading and assistance from someone in-person like math.
