Whenever you see a pollster or consultant give a take like this, it’s always worth following the money. In this case, Emanuel has paid Anzalone’s firm nearly $300k (maybe more but that’s what I found so far). A consultant class is devouring the Dem Party www.elections.il.gov/CampaignDisc...

Underestimate @RahmEmanuel at your own risk.
He knows how to win. He knows how to fight.
And he knows how to message.
And no one will out work him. Regardless of whether he wins the Democratic nomination in 2028 he will make an impact on the race. You can be sure of that. Don't take your eyes off of him. At the minimum, learn from him.

100%. It's not a coincidence that his three worst movies are the ones he wrote and directed, while his best movies were directed by (chronologically) Rob Reiner, Harold Becker, Mike Nichols, David Fincher, Bennett Miller, and Danny Boyle.

It really is a wild fucking piece, presuming that we're not at a point culturally and technologically where the vast majority of people have curated and maintained their own personal musical bubble that is basically impenetrable. We're not listening to radio and watching MTV anymore; it's not 1986.
