We need her where she is.

Just because competition is healthy

I know that many here know me as one of the biggest opponents of DST and I complain about it every clock switch however I do support it now for one reason: It is far more convenient when playing Ingress. Sun still up after 9PM is perfect for an Ingress night.

That's basically the only reason though. That is all.

I think that my position on Algerian conflict might be pretty similar to the Albert Camus' by that time and, on the other hand, I might be in favour of a Constitutional reform, given the terrible mess of politics in the IV Republic. Also, I feel an instinctive antipathy for Jean-Paul Sartre. Mendès France reluctantly and hoping some 'liberal' solution in Algeria.

Maybe the Wyoming primary is a "Race to Watch", but then again, so are quite a few others.

Race to Watch essentially means that everyone knows the outcome partisan-wise, but it'll be interesting to watch. There is no scenario that ends with a Democrat taking Mike Enzi's seat, but Liz Cheney coming onto to the scene would be fun to watch.

It's funny, I've seen my Wiki maps pop up all over the place, including in one of my university classes (a professor used a map I made on Wikipedia in a lecture slide).

And as you know, I'm happy for any of mine to be used by anybody, without the need for attribution (and you know this since I've expressly stated as much for your use on your website).

Incidently, I'm working on a post-redistribution map of the provincial legislature ridings of Nova Scotia presently.

Airing in the following states:

Narrator: Is the Nader/Kucinich ticket ready to lead? Ralph Nader has no experience in politics. Dennis Kucinich's record in Congress? Not a single piece of legislation passed. As Mayor of Cleveland? Drove the city into default. Can you trust either of them in the Oval Office?

Dean: I'm Howard Dean and I approve this message.

We need people like her to stay and continue to set the standard in the Senate.

Actually, the sentence with blank 40 doesn't read particularly well... instead of "Every week, they two sit with the members..." I would say "Every week, the two of them sit with the members..."

An even better way of saying it is probably: "Every week, they both sit with the members..." - the author of the text book may have confused "both" with "two"

No, because you're an asshole.

You might want to Bowdlerize that one word some. You know that is beyond the pale. It's in a Mod's inbox now. It's stupid to get punished for such words in the context of personal attack, when there are so many other ways to make your opinion perfectly clear (one that I largely share in this instance).  That action is for dumbs.

Agreed. Even someone got offended and reported me for calling someone an asshole, even though it was pretty clearly not meant to be a personal attack.
