First day of early voting in KY. We were at the polling station (Bowman Field) in Louisville right before the doors opened at 8:00, and there were already 500-600 people in line! It took about an hour to get inside to vote, but the line was even longer as we were heading out. Very diverse crowd, all ages, races and ethnicities. I know KY will end up supporting former President Klanrobe, but Louisville, Lexington, Frankfort, and a couple counties in northern KY will help run up the national majority votes for Kamala.

This is all redux of Obama saying that McCain's typical reductionist Republican policies were like "putting lipstick on a pig." Which immediately led to $arah Palin squealing that he was referring to 𝘩𝘦𝘳 as a pig!

Oh, we've call you a hell of a lot worse names than that, Tundra Barbie.

'interchangeable Politico Playbook loser' needs to go right up there with 'cakes we like' and 'worthly Wokette skum' and 'this entire blog can be shipped to Afghanistan'.

there's prolly more but i'm heading to MI soon to poll watch and my show is SO not ready for opening next week so others of the Wonkette Ancients can add to the lists...

Watching the MSM's last hurrah has been an interesting experience. Kudos to the social media people in the Harris campaign who showed so blatantly that the American people do not have to be held hostage to gatekeepers happy to feed them pablum for profit.

Is Ryan Lizza still suspended from Politico for being a garbage (yup, garbage) human being who was once engaged to delusional Olivia Nuzzi?

Yes. And let's not forget Nuzzi's virtual snuggle with RFK Jr, who is is own personal brand of ick (Including his ick wife, Cheryl Hines)

"And that’s why it is worth revisiting last night’s speech... regardless of what the media is talking about" and by media I mean me. Even he knows to ignore the media and himself.

Them: "You Puerto Ricans, Latinos, women, Blacks, and Jews are GARBAGE! And we're TIRED of you being all "upset" about being called garbage. Get over it! Why do people have to be SO SENSITIVE?"

Biden: "Okay, saying that is kinda garbage"

Them: "HOW DARE YOU CALL US GARBAGE! We call YOU garbage! You don't call US garbage! WE WILL HAVE VENGEANCE UPON YOU!"

Trump: America is a garbage can.

Politico and Cillizza: crickets.

Biden: Trump’s racist comedian is garbage (said awkwardly enough that people could interpret it to mean all of Trump’s supporters are garbage)

Politico and Cillizza: why hasn’t Harris dropped out and conceded yet?

You know, I'm likely just seeing/stating the obvious, but it seems to me that most of this and everything else is focused on the "man" and what the "man" did and what the "man", who is the current or former president, said. It's as if whatever she did or does would automatically be wrong.

It's almost as if our society had invented a cultural norm stating that it doesn't matter how hard she tries she will never be good enough and will fail (woulda thunk we could be that stupid? weeeell,...). Or, that she will be the victim of another "man's" actions because she isn't sufficient herself.

And it's not just the fine "men" of our society. Why, just the other day Katie Couric said:

"I don’t find her explanation of policy that compelling compared to, say, someone like Bill Clinton or Barack Obama," she added."

She just not Obama or Clinton, folks, according to Katie-cakes. And if she isn't one of the most gifted orators in US history, well, then how she possibly hope to succeed, says the Katester, enjoying the smell of her own farts.

At this point I don't care about fascism anymore. I just want her to win so she can tell these stupid motherfuckers to fuck off with this abject nonsense.

Some asshole this morning said, 'Oh, she didn't offer anything new.' SO WHAT? She's been detailing her policies for THREE FUCKING MONTHS. There's nothing left TO say, and a week before the election is a stupid time to drop new policies. This wasn't about policy. This was about GOTV. This was about 'take back OUR country from the fascists and wannabe dictators.' This was about motivation and excitement and joy.

But it's HARD to recognise that when all you wanna do is carp and kvetch.

This whole idea that Kamala Harris busses people in to go to her rallies is insane. A motorcoach seats roughly 40 people, so to bus in 73,000 people would require something like 1,800 buses, which certainly SOMEONE would have photographed at some point.

Depending on where she bussed the people in from, this would cost something like $2-3 million, just for this rally. Is her campaign really dropping that kind of cash on getting people to rallies? I doubt it.

And can you imagine how difficult it would be to secure 1,800 buses? I guess maybe you could outsource this to state and local committees, but still...that's a lot of goddamn buses.

So, you say, maybe it was only like 100 buses. That's way more manageable. Sure, but that's also only 4,000 people, which would mean 69,000* people came to the rally because they wanted to, which is still a pretty big fucking crowd.

These people are out of their goddamn minds.

* Nice.

They are completely incapable of admitting she had a larger crowd than the Man-Baby did because that will trigger another tantrum.
