DL National Elections Results Thread: Tuesday, November 5, 2024
OK, guys, this is the big one. The night always starts off bad as Kentucky and Indiana report first. But we might at least get a sense as to the degree of an under-count of Harris voters even in these states, if there is an under-count. Georgia and North Carolina close pretty early. I think […]
DL Delaware Election Results Thread: Tuesday, November 5, 2024
OK, guys, this thread is for the Delaware results only. I can certainly understand that, as the national results come in and some of you perhaps indulge a bit too much (whether out of sheer joy or abject depression), you might mistakenly post national stuff here. I’ll give you a pass because I’m a generous […]

Looks Like The Harris Surge Is–Real. The NYTimes/Siena Poll, which has shown weaker numbers for Harris than comparable polls in the past, now shows a significant surge for Harris. I will also add that, if there are two states where the ground game will make a difference, those two states are Michigan and Pennsylvania. Still […]

Does Trump WANT To Lose? I’m starting to think so. Because he’d rather have to reprise the ‘election was stolen’ meme from 2020 than to actually have to do the job. I mean, why else would he go to New Mexico and say stuff like this?: Former President Donald Trump admitted to a crowd of […]

Trump Fantasizes About Liz Cheney…With Guns Trained On Her: During an onstage conversation with conservative commentator Tucker Carlson in Glendale, Ariz., Trump launched into a meandering diatribe against Cheney, who was one of only two Republicans on the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6 riot. Trump said Cheney was a “radical war hawk” who […]
‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes: October 2024
A surprisingly superb selection this month. ‘Surprising’ in that I have a rule. It’s a stupid rule, but a rule nonetheless: If a song comes out, but is on an album that will not be released until the following year, I don’t include it. I will say that January and February of 2025 sound real […]

Personal To Feckless Joe: Can’t you just shut up for one more week? Or, you know, maybe stop sending more weapons to Israel? Or both? A Garbage Truck Named Trump. Doubling down on the notion that lots of Americans are garbage while sitting in a garbage truck with ‘TRUMP’ emblazoned on it strikes me as […]
I’m Calling It: Harris Will Win
Not only that–she’ll have coattails that will flip the House and quite possibly at least lead to a 50-50 Senate. Yes, I think the polls are wrong. I think that they have failed to account for what I see as being an overwhelming female vote that will result in something like a blue wave. I […]

Yes, It Was A Great Speech. At least in part because Michelle made a very important point: “If your wife is shivering and bleeding on the operating room table during a routine delivery gone bad, her pressure dropping as she loses more and more blood, or some unforeseen infection spreads and her doctors aren’t sure […]

The Relentless Rethug Campaign To Disenfranchise Voters. Virginia: On Friday, a Virginia judge ruled that Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s recent purge of close to two thousand voters from state rolls—within 90 days of November’s election—was illegal. Now, with that election less than two weeks away, the state must reinstate all 1,600 revoked registrations. Fourth Circuit […]

Melissa Brayman For NCC President. Monique Johns’ behavior since she won a five-way primary has revealed who she is: A money-grubbing grifter and a narcissist. The best that we could hope for her in office is that she becomes a laughingstock. The worst? She and the County wind up with a bunch of lawsuits on […]

Monique Johns Is Who We Thought She Was. A grifter only in it for personal gain. Rarely has our Tip Line lit up (OK, the Tip Line doesn’t technically light up, but bear with me here) as it has. for what is the first of what presumably will be many attempts to rip off the […]
