  1. Brown's been on my radar as a true-liberal for more than a decade. I've never thought of him like Kaine, Clinton, Kerry or Gore.
  2. Crisis Actors!
  3. Right. Bad title, fair article/analysis.
  4. I can't imagine him not running at this point. If he doesn't run, it will be to announce a VP pledge to another candidate (heck, this might be a really good idea).
  5. Part of my point is that Brown, perhaps like Bernie, appeals to that white working class. We just disagree on the Hillary effect, and the nature of the problems within the democratic party. I think there was lots of fishiness, suckers for conspiracy, etc. in 2016 that won't present itself in the same way in 2020. Clearly, there are systemic problems within the Democratic party, many of which make me cringe, but post-2016, the party does seem to be organizing around progressive values and messages, and although to the chagrin of many, I think is a good thing, because it's an authentic take, and not the elitist threading of the needle.
  6. I think he has the same kind of appeal that Bernie has, authentically speaks to working class values yet doesn't have the "socialist" baggage that Bernie has. He won in Ohio by 9 pts when Trump won by like 7 pts; that's a huge swing. And I still don't know that the Dems need to persuade Trump voters; I think Clinton failed to turn people out for two reasons 1) she was lame 2) her victory was a forgone conclusion. Personally, I know plenty of people who didn't vote for either, but will definitely be voting against Trump (yes, anecdotal). That said, I think Beto probably would have wider appeal given his youth and likability. He did well having lots of national exposure, so I don't think the primaries would show some hidden flaw.
  7. People look at you like you're crazy in Arizona when someone uses supper.
  8. You're not alone in thinking this.
  9. Radiohead has been around for 25 years? Jeeze, I'm old.
  10. I've always liked Brown for many of the reasons Will lists here. He seems authentic, smart, and non-elite.
  11. Morrison was probably the best option to start regardless of his attitude, which isn't a great place to be in, no? And, the alleged problematic culture I think was contributed by others, namely Lynn, and including Dozier (pending FA), to a degree we aren't probably willing to admit.
  12. I did read today or yesterday someplace that Baldelli would be traveling to meet with both Buxton and Sano in person.
  13. This deal would have made a lot of sense for the Twins.
  14. There's two different prosecutions at work, the SDNY and Mueller; he's cooperated with Mueller, but evidently, not so much with SDNY b/c he's unwilling to implicate friends and family in whatever tax evasion schemes/frauds he may know about. My sense is that this is the sentence he'll serve (with possibility of early release).
  15. Cohen gets three years.
  16. The fact that he's engaged suggests that his use of "pissed" isn't so much directed at the Twins as the circumstances, probably including himself. I hope this signals he's motivated to be the player we all believe he's capable of being.
  17. I love this. Pictures or doesn't count (next time).
  18. Biden Should Run on a Unity Ticket With Romney Please god no.
  19. Gato got the lid, he just finished early.
  20. Oat Thins? Do they even make those anymore?
  21. Here's a pic of my older dog (Bluebear) getting to lick the peanut butter jar, and my younger dog's (Gato) response.
