He took the race for granted and it bit him in the ass.Phil Murphy didn't and that's why he won.

That’s one reason I am tired of all the too-classy-to-be-a-Trumper-but-willingly-participated-in-discriminatory-GOP-politics-for-years talking heads who are all over “liberal” media telling the left they’re doing everything all kinds of wrong.

Yup.I like her as well but she was afraid of her own past which she had nothing to be ashamed about and tried to veer to the left lane which was already occupied.When she realized her mistake, it was too late.

T-Mac also failed to define Youngkin beyond Trump.That hurt him too.

Just read an article that mentioned Phil had internals that only showed him up by three or four points which explains why he was still campaigning even though most polls had him up by seven or eight points.As it was, he beat history, a hard thing to do.

What the sam-f#ck is Cohn talking about? I guess Glenn Trumpkin was maybe post-racial in the sense that like most modern conservatives, he no longer confines himself to the subtle dog-whistles of bigotry, but he in no way moved beyond race, it was the predominate theme of his campaign.

I could swear the Youngkin signs were lit with tiki torches glimmering from the other side of the veil / the upside down.

This picture will never ever not make me furious. It always makes me want to simultaneously hold that incredibly brave girl in my arms and kick the shit out of those hideous hateful sacks of bile yelling at her and stalking her.

Sadly, I agree. Misogyny AND racism are two very hard mountains to climb.

"Look, I was a high-school President, so, obviously I know a few things about the executive branch"

WHO THE FUCK THINKS A HIGH SCHOOL ANYTHING DENOTES SOME KIND OF EXPERTISE?!

Does this flavor of shit sandwich actually convince people? GTFO Zombie Gray Lady, you're clearly drunk starving-for-brains.
