Let the pearl clutching and hand wringing begin.

... we should fight misogyny and racism whether or not it’s politically expedient.

Exactly who is this 'we' of which you speak? Misogyny is defined as "ingrained prejudice against women" and while conservatives are by no means immune from that prejudice, the LEFT has historically practiced it with great fervor. The "Lion of the Senate" was just one, but there have been many. Far too many of the 1970s radicals prattled feminist slogans but treated them worse.

As for racism, the current treatment of Kanye West puts a stopper into that mouth! What better proof is there of the 'plantation mentality' of the LEFT? How DARE HE go off to praise DJT and even wear a MAGA hat? STONE HIM!

Republicans win it is luck. Democrats win it is destiny.

Republicans/Conservatives are finally starting to fight back.

...archaic electoral college.... Someone was absent during history class....or maybe not.

It is leftist dog whistle for "archaic Constitution".

He’s probably going through all the new employee orientation paperwork for his new gig at Goldman Sachs.

You know, all the bennies and stuff he’ll be getting there.

‘Ford, with her contrived baby-girl voice’

the poor woman can never give another interview without having to use that idiotic voice, for fear of revelation...she’s tied herself to her crib...

Here in NC, the airwaves are jammed with political ads, but the candidates are not mentioning their political party affiliation. Really strange.

Yet somehow he [Kav] was confirmed. And his party's luck is even more astonishing.

IMHO, luck had absolutely nothing to do with it. Prayer did. 'Somehow' is spelled GOD.

‘There were half a dozen times during Brett M. Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination battle when most experts were certain he’d have to be withdrawn.’

In other words, when Republicans fight back in the culture wars instead of surrendering...we can win.

What a concept.

Why are you complaining?

This is good for us. It means the anti-illegal immigration side is winning. I don’t WANT this dicknipple campaigning.

Correct, but make sure you qualify: 40k ahead for Republicans of their 2016 general election numbers.

Which is just astounding.
