Republicans have performed poorly in the NC gubernatorial race over the last 30+ years, winning once.
Council of State and elections to the legislature have been successful for them, though

Not necessarily, anyone who knows the state can tell you this.
NC ousted an incumbent republican while electing Trump in 2016. Republicans have not won the governorship, except once in 2012, since 1988.
The states national and state election results have always been decoupled.
Maybe not always, but there are plenty of senators who are fundamentally there for life (McConnell).
This also means theres a lower chance for those who truly can’t be bought, because running a nationwide campaign is expensive. They will all need money–most of it from corporate. Could you imagine Citizens United being decided by an elected court?
The one advantage would be that the court would more rapidly match the public’s views, and not take decades to move along with the country… But we still elected a raving lunatic like trump.
I think Bidens proposals strike a reasonable balance; a 5-7 year elected term I fear forces more money into the equation and doesn’t give any opportunity to fix the thing.
Which makes them incapable of being bought? Look at any senator you care to.
Kagen, Sotomayor, Coney Barrett.
Just depends how unique the persons name is. Nobody called Janet Reno just plain old Janet.
How many washing machines
Or maybe just good guys with Li-ion batteries.
I’m not sure how you just build a pool that doesn’t leak and can hold the weight of the water…
Thanks for sharing your observations. All I had to go on was every former military person I knew was hard core trump in 2016… Talking about they were voting for him because they knew what leadership looked like.
Wasn’t stateside for 2020 so I didn’t have any exposure to these types.
Good faith question: what are the chances you are in a very small minority? How will military members who weren’t deployed into combat react?
I’ll give jack smith $20 to file charges
See, I never just did things just to do them. Come on, what am I gonna do? Just all of a sudden jump up and grind my feet on somebody’s couch like it’s something to do? Come on. I got a little more sense than that.
Yeah, I remember grinding my feet on Eddie’s couch.
Nah, I believe that Trump is better looking than Harris… In an orange jumpsuit behind bars.
But it’s a play off the popemobile. It’s a solid name.
Can we hold the US government liable when a drug runner uses the interstate to move his shit from A to B?
Thanks, I saw you mention SAS. I fly with them often, I might try this out. (Usually log in and then flip on the VPN)
I have all this, except the NTP port… Any advice on how to set this part up?
Either that or it would be so lucrative we could fund universal healthcare
Except we all know it would fund cool new guns and tanks for your local municipality.
What primaries? They were won by Biden because it wasn’t contested.
Almost like they could be represented in the house or the Senate, right
