Retiring the phantasm of the Republican Attack Ad would be one of the best possible things to happen for the Dems this cycle

I think that when Democrats concede to a right-wing framing on immigration, the issue becomes a contest of who can be the most racist, which Republicans are always in a position to win. Democrats who fight on the issue framing, by contrast, can extract more electoral benefit.

I kind of disagree here. Turek is the furthest right on immigration and is doing the worst on the issue, while Talarico is the furthest left reach seat candidate on immigration and is doing best on the issue.

Even most of the proponents of social contagion acknowledge that they lack credible evidence to support their ideas and are operating off intuition alone.

not that you should expect anything more than rank idiocy from this pair of racists, but the idea that whiteness means a "high trust" society of "social cohesion" is some of the stupidest shit i have ever heard. these people live in a fantasy land that you could dispel by simply opening a book.

Swap the LV and RV results and this makes a lot of sense imo. Talarico +7 is a bit on the high end but not too implausible of a result at this point

i suppose i’m not surprised that it is difficult to make people care about something that is low visibility — the vast majority of people have no idea who piker is — and low salience. i think we’re also going to find, for similar reasons, that the anti-trans messaging isn’t working either.

I prefer the incremental solution that can be implemented through bare-majority legislation (240 Supreme Court justices) to Third Way's radical plan, which requires fully amending the Constitution (term limits)
