Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

We were so close to getting rid of her...and then she moves in next door. Good job CO-4...

CO-4 is populated by one vagabond and three mountain lions with a cougar fetish so it was a smart move on her part.

[–] MegaUltraChicken 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Oh it was absolutely the smart move for her electorally. I think she would've been toast in CO-3 this time. Might not have made it out of the primary even. That seat is going blue this November :)

Sorry to burst your bubble, but there's no way the west slope and Southern CO are going blue now that Bobo is out of that race. Quote me

[–] MegaUltraChicken 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

We'll see. I'm gonna do everything I can to prove you wrong and hope for the best. I can't speak for the Western slope, but I don't think Southern Colorado is out of play for Frisch at all.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

I hope you're right, but I'd put money on this race. I think the ONLY reason Frisch had a chance was because he was running again Boebert. Any remotely mainstream R candidate is going to vote R.

We'll see come November, and thanks for trying to prove me wrong. I wish you overwhelming success
