How many times has this happened to Granny Ginsberg in the last year. “Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg erroneously labeled South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham as one of the ‘women of the Senate’ on Monday." If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | I didn't know Obama was a stand up comic. Saw 60 sec of his presser just 4 months ago, early Dec, saying the world is a safer place because his diplomacy got rid of all the weaponized gas in Syria. He went on to pat himself on the back at how great diplomacy is, especially his diplomacy. You just know the leaders of the countries he was dealing with were laughing behind his back at what a tool he is, a naive fool. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

You saw it on Twitter? Twitter now tells you how to look at political races? Or did someone with some actual clue what they were saying post it on Twitter? Huge difference between some random poster and someone with some experience and insight. Hell, I can post anything I want on Twitter and it will mean just as much as if you post anything you want on Twitter!! Just attributing stuff to "Twitter" is pretty worthless...just like my opinion below... KS-04 Results: Republican wins. Margin narrower than Trump's margin. KS-04 Opinion: Dems still have work to do to take back the House. Trump and Republican discord could lose the House. So...we learned nothing we didn't already know from this election. The seat does not change hands and most people, even those with insight, would pretty much say something similar to the opinions that I offered... |

I don't know if she should resign for a misstatement...that standard would get just about everyone in government. She should pay better attention to who the heck she is talking about. I know there are a lot of genders out there to choose from and everyone is free to choose one for themselves; I don't know of Graham declaring himself a woman yet.. |

His unpopularity is certainly not "meaningless" and I don't see how anyone can say that it is with a straight face. It does mean less now than it will come next summer when the House and Senate races are in full swing. The clock is ticking but time is not running out. No one should count seats until they are sitting in them. Look what happened to the seat the Democrats counted last November...that should be a lesson for all! |
