    They ordered bars to close at 5pm tomorrow to curb the huge crowds that drink on Thanksgiving eve and all the local bars are just doing "thanksgiving eve-eve" specials tonight to get around it. These stupid motherfuckers don't understand that they're prolonging this misery. I hope they go out of business

    It's not something you will see on the most-watched cable news network in the United States, but some of the smaller outlets have been talking about it for weeks!

    You'd have to think way more Democrats in GA will be motivated to vote in this runoff than Republicans, mainly based on the disappointment with how Trump lost

    It is absolutely nuts to me that we are this far in this thing and when I try to schedule a Covid test, it is next week in some cases and multiple days out in the other. Thankfully I found one that doesn't do appointments but is open from 9am to 9pm.

    Man, if they're able to pull off both GA senate races, then it's pretty much open season for Democrat policy goals in the next four years, right?

    No, because the Manchins of the world won’t allow it. But it would certainly allow for much better policy to be passed than not.

    Joe Manchin, what a bitch!
     
  18. Collins and Manchin will have an annoying amount of power the next two years no matter what at this point.

    I mean maybe no Green New Deal, but at least if there is a SC vacancy, at least we don't have to go, "well, I guess they will just keep it open for years until another R is in office."

    My how the standard has fallen.

    In seriousness, a 50-50 senate would obviously be way better than being down a seat or two, but it’s still going to be tough to get things done. At this point I’m almost convinced Murkowski and Romney are more likely to vote with the dems than Manchin lol.

    But at least with 50-50 most if not all of Biden’s cabinet picks should be able to get approved.

    Yeah, especially since Harris will be the tie-breaking vote

    If the senate was 50/50, we could have a vote on the house's covid package. That alone shows how advantageous it would be.
