    Hillary is Beligum and Trump is USA, if Lando was in Wondolowski's place and the goal went in. And the USA won in extra time.

    I will never forgive Klinsmann for this.... The dude took this Julian kid who never even played a game in Bundesliga, along with a bunch of other wankers, and left Donovan behind. In the annals of stupid football decisions, that has to be on top of any list.

    I once wrote a long contrast-and-compare post on the two of them. The bottom line: Both were incompetent, vain, fuzzy on the details, bad at their jobs, disliked by their underlings, and passed blame onto others. But JK was not evil, just a routine douchebag. He was far better -- and even more competent, although he was an incompetent -- than The Donald.

    #draftCuomo?

    “Some Democrats are openly talking up New York governor Andrew Cuomo, whose profile has soared during the crisis, as a Biden stand-in. Yesterday, a Draft Cuomo 2020 account on Twitter announced that “Times have changed & we need Gov. Cuomo to be the nominee. Our next POTUS must be one w/an ability to lead thru this crisis.”

    *I don’t see this as a serious course of action

    Look; this was the nominee chosen by the voters. I don't like the choice; Joe was unpolished at the best of times, I could've named upwards of 10 Dems in the field I'd rather have, and now every time I watch him he does or says something that makes me uneasy about his state of being, but this is what we get. I'll continue to root for Joe and I hope he'll pick a strong VP.

    Sure, and Rudy f'n Guiliani was "America's mayor" and was talked about for president in the days after September 11, 2001.

    Andrew Cuomo never ever wants to be in a sentence with Rudy again, even implicitly.

    Okay.. What is up with Biden's house that they can't use video? i saw they were having issues because of his low ceilings, but WTF. If some schlep can put out a vlog from their dorm room, surely they can do one from his living room?? It's not that hard. Biden doesn't need to be standing in front of a wall of flags. Just have the guy sitting in a chair by his fireplace and put up some lights on stands..

    I like this idea, actually. As people gradually move off television it's important to meet people where they're at. This means Internet streams, YouTube videls, podcasts, heck, if you're really feeling frisky, a Twitch stream.
    The nice thing about podcasts is you can just find it on Spotify, subscribe to it, and hit play with your headphones on while you're running or doing other things. Video lacks that accessibility; you're generally having to sit down and watch a video as your natural impulse. Also, it's easier to edit and you don't need makeup or a presentable background.

    It isn't uncommon for vlogs of the nature I was talking about to be released as podcasts as well. ;) We are also in a situation where a hefty chunk of people are stuck inside their houses for virtually the entire day, so being forced to sit and watch something isn't a burden.

    Well, let's see. A guy who wrote a rape fantasy is running against a guy who has a sexual harassment allegation, with the winner going against a guy who openly admitted to multiple sexual assaults.

    How about we just elect women instead?

    Is putting your hand on a waitress's shoulder and having your fingers run up her neck a serious crime? Here's a list of all the Biden accusations. That one is the worst of the lot.

    All tacky, I sure wouldn't do them. Also clearly better than grabbing pussy.

    At any rate, you should have supported Warren, then no problems on this front.
