I know it sounds stupid to a lot of people here, but I do think this is a potentially winning angle with a lot of voters. People have been trained for decades to believe that socialism is equivalent to Soviet style communism and that once you start down the path, there’s no turning back.

As a kid growing up in Maine, we used to joke that it was the most inbred state north of the Mason-Dixon Line. At least, I think we were joking…

2020 called. It wants its headline back.

Golden and MGP might suck, but they both count towards a dem majority in the house and they both vote with the dems a hell of a lot more often than their GOP opponent would have had they won. So yeah, vote blue no matter who, because even these douchenozzles are better than the best Republicans.

Don’t worry, Golden is retiring from the house and he’s likely to be replaced by Paul “I was Trump before Trump” LePage, so everything will be fine, right?

I get that it’s starting to sound repetitive and hopelessly optimistic at this point, but the reality is that there’s a real chance that he dies of Diet Coke & McDonald’s before 2028.

Very basically, what’s happening is that every file that is read (including the binaries and libraries that make up the services you run, etc) is loaded into memory and stays there until that memory needs to be reclaimed for something else. It’s a good thing. It means that the next time that file is needed, it can be accessed directly in RAM rather than reaching out to the filesystem.

“Low poll ratings and scarce campaign funds” sounds like a great way to go into the general election. Sounds like Wisconsin dems prefer a republican governor over DSA.

Well, had the Biden Justice Dept actually done their fucking job, Trump would be in prison right now and our munitions stockpiles would be where they should be. So sure, Biden should shoulder some of the blame.

It’s gotten him this far…

Many. I haven’t seen any signs of his support waning where I live. Same signs, flags, bumper stickers, etc. Even the Trump 2028 crap. And if you read the comments on my local newspaper’s website, you’ll hear plenty from them.

His current obsession with the threat of “communism” really seems to be resonating with them.

His replacement will have no chance. This whole campaign and all the controversy around it have been so poorly managed. The dems have shot themselves in the foot again. So now we get six more years of rapist-enabler Susan Collins. This is not an improvement.
