The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.

Hey we’re not that old on this board! We’re like halfway. Those of you who don’t drink, anyway.
I am always suspicious of the demographic argument Dems make. I come from a Cuban immigrant family, which granted has its own (well deserved) reputation, but Hispanics are pretty socially conservative. And don’t underestimate how much the “freedom” type rhetoric resonates. I can’t speak to other groups but I’m sure they’re not alone. I feel like since the W Bush years, the GOP just didn’t care to continue this support for immigrants (I guess it was a Bush/Reagan thing). So maybe Dems luck out in the end because the GOP squanders the opportunity. And I do think the Biden admin is in a unique time in history, and has an opportunity to cement some of the gains these past few years.

Outside of Jammer I'm pretty sure I have the questionable honor of being the youngest person on the board

Don’t count her out. CA loved the reign of the Governator, and Jenner checks the SJW box by default. But I don’t think this race is in any way a predictor of GOP candidates in other states.

Is there anything preventing the Governator from throwing his hat in again? Other than he probably has no interest in doing so.

If you believe that you really don’t understand SJWs

Marco Rubio continues his push for punitive policy responses to companies who get out of line in the NYPost today...something he started with his “Republicans should support Amazon unionization but only because the company is too woke” oped last month.
Quote:
No policymaker would allow a company to dump toxic waste into a river upstream of a thriving town he is charged with governing. Yet corporate America eagerly dumps woke, toxic nonsense into our culture, and it’s only gotten more destructive with time. These campaigns will be met with the same strength that any other polluter should expect.
Our nation needs a thriving private economy. And patriotic business leadership has historically underwritten the American Dream. But lawmakers who have been asleep at the wheel for too long, especially within my own party, need to wake up. America’s laws should keep our nation’s corporations firmly ordered to our national common good.

But laws shouldn't keep citizens firmly ordered to our national common good? So corps. are not people?
There was a study a few years ago... I’ll try to find it... that talked about corporations supporting national interests and the US was dead last in major economies. Upon reflection, it’s not that bad a place to draw a cut out for the GOP if they want to keep blue collar workers and still fight the woke wars

“Whenever a company’s internal or external culture runs counter to mine, that company shall be deemed a threat to the national interest and the power of the state wielded against them” would, I suppose, be the most comfortable way for conservatism to reconcile recent authoritarian urges with its general anti-regulation philosophies.
It has a very “look what you made me do” kind of energy.
