    Thats AOC's hopes dashed and its also probably put a (hopefully only) temporary obstacle in the way of Pete Buttegieg, as I am sure LGBTQ candidates will not feature either. <doh>

    Now here's an idea: how about the Democrats put up somebody who appeals to Democrat voters, not somebody who chases Republican voters who won't switch?

    Hmm, I wonder if this is a lesson that needs to be drilled into certain heads over here...?

    The thing is she was divisive even among Democrats - though she mainly ****ed it by assuming she didn't even need to campaign in certain states, which she promptly lost

    1. I refer you to my previous "Morning Joe" comment.

    2. Perhaps if they offered someone akin to Tulsi Gabbard rather
    than two sociopaths, they would get their Thatcher moment.

    Until then, methinks the GOP may be first to have a
    female USA president (perhaps that is why Gabbard has
    officially signed on) .

    Why would the Democrats run a Republican candidate, especially one that's part of a cult and I don't mean the Trump one?
    That's leaving aside the fact that she's a big fan of Putin and Assad.

    Well, I guess they now have Liz Cheneys as an option rather than Gabbard-esques.

    Or neither, because they're both Republicans.

    As has been pointed out elsewhere, Harris lost every single college town vote in Michigan

    Hmm, I wonder if being okay teargassing students protesting the ongoing genocide in Palestine for the past year, then sending Bill Clinton in at the weekend to tell them how brilliant Israel is, might have given potential voters pause...?

    That just sounds wrong, to me. A lot of the results do.
    Still, at least those students will get to watch Israel wipe out Gaza under Trump, eh?

    Also worth mentioning that Detroit has one of the largest Muslim populations of the US

    So sending Slick Willy C to browbeat them four days before an election must have been Jonathan Ashworth's call...

    I'm sure they'll all enjoy every minute of Trump's reign. Presumably from another country after he's done deporting everybody.
    On the plus side for the people of Detroit, it's only a short bus ride south into Canada.

    As I said a page ago, somebody needs to drill into Starmer's head this is what happens when you cosy up to people who won't vote for you anyway while telling the people who would vote for you to **** off at every opportunity, because it'll happen to him too

    It'll happen to Labour no matter what they do.
    This country will re-elect the Tories at the next election because it's full of idiots with short memories.
    The media and now social media are dominated by rich people and their interests and loads of the voting public fall for it.
    A whole bunch of American political twats got caught being paid tons of money by Russia and nobody even blinked.
    We're all ****ed and half of us think that it's a good thing, while simultaneously being pissed off about it.
