So Biden is projected to win SC. I was certainly wrong. Biden won handily. Whether because of vote manipulation or he really won on his own accord. Who knows? But this just set him up to do well on Super Tuesday. I still believe he is the DNC’s first pick to get the nomination. I just thought his gaffs were hurting him more than they did.

In the meantime I read somewhere that the Ukraine has finally opened an investigation into Biden. This won’t bode well for him if continues on to get the nomination. Or would it hurt his chances of getting the nomination?
I was surprised at how easily he seems to be winning SC. Wow!

Part of me (sarcastically) thinks an investigation into Biden will actually further energize further support for him amongst the moderates.

With all the momentum and large base that Bernie has, the win for Biden, an especially large win, is very suspicious to me. With Iowa in mind, all the dead voters still voting for Democrats, vote harvesting by the Democrats, and one of the largest turnouts in the state’s primary when turnout has been low in the previous states, etc I wouldn’t doubt the votes were manipulated. But proof? It just seems awfully suspicious to me. The fix is in. Sorry Bernie...

Democrats Desperate to End Sanders’ Path of Democratic Destruction

https://thegreggjarrett.com/democrats-desperate-to-end-sanders-path-of-democratic-destruction/

“From Pelosi to DNC members, multiple schemes are being tossed around to end Sanders’ political tear through the primaries. There are reports that Obama is being urged to broker some sort of truce between Sanders and the moderate camps. DNC member from Tennessee, William Owen will even settle for Michelle Obama to be on the ticket as Vice President just so there is someone they can rally behind.“

Can anyone explain why Tulsi is still campaigning when obviously she has no chance to even get close and is running out of money and donations?

Obviously, I’m not good predicting or guessing. Which is why I started this thread. So take whatever I say with a grain of salt. The rumor mill has it that she is vying for being picked as Vice President running mate to Bernie. She fits the Democrat mold (minority, woman, etc). But she does not come with any delegates or much support. Plus she has butted heads with the party numerous times. She gave up her house seat so it looks like she has gone all in on her campaign. This makes sense in some respects as she supported Bernie in 2016. It may be Bernie is really considering her as his running mate so she is staying in the campaign for exposure. I cannot see any other reason behind her staying in the campaign. But what do I know?

If you read the article I posted right before this, the writer discusses some talk about having Michelle Obama becoming Bernie’s running mate just so the party will have someone they can rally around as a way of making Bernie more palatable to the party moderates. Can you imagine being Bernie and having the Democrat party tell you who your running mate is going to be or they will give the nomination to Biden?

Believe it or not, Long Beach has it’s own water company and purchases water from different sources than Bellflower does. Bellflower buys their water from Metropolitan Water District (MWD) which comes from the Colorado River. Long Beach buys their water from the Colorado River Aqueduct and from Northern California’s Delta Region. But either way I think most of the water comes from the Colorado River.

What bothers me some is Joe Biden’s gaffs that appear to me to be the beginnings of Alzheimer’s Disease. I have a little experience with a couple of close family members and the making up of stories on the fly and repeating them over and over again is how my two family members started. They firmly believed the stories. In this day and age of information it would be political suicide to do this on purpose. Especially since his handlers are telling him to stop with the story the first time he blurts it out. That is the reason I believe he takes a few days to finally walk them back. It takes them a few days to convince him he was not there nor actually participated in whatever story he is telling. Add to that all the weird misstatements (If it were Trump, they would be lies) he makes constantly. Not what I want in a president. I am no expert in the field, however.

What bothers me the most is Bernie walking back his medical records right after his heart attack. He is obviously hiding something that would either hurt his chances or even preclude him from running for president. He was wide open with them prior to the heart attack. Not that I would vote for Bernie anyway. But if he has a bum ticker and his doctor recommended he not run, I would not vote for him even if he was my candidate. Something is amiss here.

It is rather useless to vote Republican in Hawaii.
I waste my vote every election.

Yeah, I’m disappointed we won’t be able to sit down over a beer and talk story on the BI. I had big plans to fix up my house there which included taking it completely off grid. I doubt my wife will be able to travel much any more. Trips in the car are possible but air travel is probably out after we fly back to the mainland. Maybe if you ever make it out to AZ? Looks like that is where we will make our final stand.

While we bought a house in a rather large subdivision in Prescott Valley we are on the outskirts of it and are just a short drive away from nothing and just a few hours to other free states. I figure it will take quite a few years to fill in the open desert areas. I’m pretty happy with my choice of where to live. At least I’ll finally be back in a free state. I intend to be very active in the gun community since I’ll be retired. Maybe not off grid but the home already has PV installed. The system is fully upgradeable and state of the art. Adding battery backup is in my plans. Before I install the batteries I’ll pick up a generator and I will be fine if I feel like I need to hunker down for a little while. I have lots of storage room in this house. Probably more than I’ll ever use. But I intend to make sure I have more than just a few weeks or months. I am making my first goal a year of supplies, ammunition and battery backup. And by then I’ll have my 2 year and 5 year goals written and I’ll start to make them happen. I have room for it all.

I’m hoping once I move that who I vote for and campaign for will get elected. Not like it is here. I’ll be surrounded by like minded people. I already see people getting out on the street corners waving flags and banners for Trump and Pro 2A (We became a sanctuary 2A county recently). Not that I am a Trump fanboy but I would rather be around people like that (Who all carry) than the BLM and rioters that are there to cause trouble and beat people up.

I saw that today. Steyer is out as well. I’m wondering why Warren doesn’t drop out? I think Bloomberg is in for a rude awakening on Tuesday. It is quite clear it is between Bernie and Biden now.

From a pragmatic perspective, she's in a great position to run for Hawaii governor.  Any campaign funds raised for the presidential race not spent this year can be used in subsequent campaigns.  She may be padding her "war chest" for another campaign.

As for a VP pick, the only way I can see that happening is if Bernie is the nominee.  All the others -- Biden, Bloomberg, Fauxcahontas, Amy -- are too much in the corporate warmonger's back pockets to pick her.

Okay, rumor mill time. And none of this is able to be corroborated. The DNC is trying to talk HillDog and/or Michelle to come sweeping in to the nominations in the Spring/summer timeframe to save the party and beat DJT. Look for one of them to come in one their white horse and shining armor to save the day.

If it actually happens, you heard it here first. If it doesn’t. Never mind.  :rofl:

Sorry to burst your bubble, but we heard that rumor from Hildabeast almost every month or two since before the primaries began!    :rofl: 

She's been starting these rumors every time someone in the MSM asks if she's interested in running.  "Never say never" is her way of staying relevant.  She failed against Trump once already.  Twice would drive her over the edge!


As for Moochele, she's said in no uncertain terms she has no interest in running for office.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but that is NOT the rumor.

Your rumor was that HillDog wanted to get back in the race. But it never happened because the DNC didn’t want her to. The rumor I read was that the DNC has switched course and is now ASKING her to do this dramatic come back. The rumor is not so much that she is going to make this big come back as much as the rumor is the DNC is courting her to do it now.

No, same rumor.  She always says, "many, many, many people have been asking me to run."  She eludes to many people including the party leaders.

In actuality, after she blasted Bernie by saying nobody in Congress (DC?) likes him, some Dems in Congress came out of the woodwork to say Clinton needs to just go away.

https://www.politico.com/news/2019/10/24/democrats-hillary-clinton-2020-056866

I think this rumor is yet another distraction from the fact that none of the Dems in the race have a realistic chance of winning, for one reason or another.  Wishing for someone else -- ANYONE else -- to step in is their panic talking.

Sorry, but I think the difference between Hillary making threats to get back into the race and the party not wanting her to and now the party is exploring having her get into the race is huge. In the first scenario, Hillary could never run because the party would not allow it. In the other scenario, the party is encouraging her to run. Big difference. But they are just rumors. So no use arguing over it.

The article I read, just rumor, also said that Michelle has been approached again since her statement that you posted. Could she change her mind?
