Doesn't Biden have to be up by 7 just to break even in the electoral college? Grrr.RJDiogenes wrote: ↑Mon Dec 23, 2019 11:45 pmThe one I saw today or yesterday had Biden up by 7 and the others somewhat less.

The best comment I've read so far regarding President Trump, the Impeachment, and the upcoming Senate trial:
The real question is should he be tried as an adult?

^^ It's true. Two parties invite antagonism. How do we bring about a multi-party system?
