He can't be around much longer right? Right?!Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑14 Jun 2022, 2:28pmI'm dubious about how much influence he actually has in the party relative to 2020.

Re: The Future of the Republican Party
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Re: The Future of the Republican Party
He is a bit of a medical oddity. Obese, shit diet, constantly enraged—how has he not stroked out? There's evidence that he's in cognitive decline, but that doesn't hurt him with his base at all.matedog wrote: ↑14 Jun 2022, 2:37pmHe'll be 78 (Biden too, give or take) around then.

Re: The Future of the Republican Party
Just looked it up. AOC was born on October 13, 1989 so she'd be eligible by voting day 2024 assuming article II means your age when you take office not when early voting startsLow Down Low wrote: ↑14 Jun 2022, 2:13pmCheers again Flex, that was another great read. I'd never have imagined Bernie would be a contender ever again but it has struck me that I seem to hear less and less of AOC these days. I'm not even sure she'd be eligible to run for potus yet anyway?

Yeah, I basically just meant any viable republican.

I honestly didn't know why that felt so significant to me but now I'm pretty sure that, subliminally, that's exactly what I was thinking.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑14 Jun 2022, 4:32pmReading between the lines, you're saying "Boogie With Your Children" would be her campaign theme?Low Down Low wrote: ↑14 Jun 2022, 3:42pmAh, good to know, cheers.

Re: The Future of the Republican Party
I spend a lot of nights awake anymore just thinking about how often we're hearing about how this is going to be the last election of our lifetimes. What the hell am I supposed to do with that info?

Re: The Future of the Republican Party
Normally, I try not to get all doom and gloom about these things. As you age, you tend to see how cyclical things are, but I have to admit, the way things have changed over the last few years, I understand your feelings. I'm actually scared for the future. I feel so sorry for young people. They've got a shit stain of a future to live in.Kory wrote: ↑14 Jun 2022, 5:49pmI spend a lot of nights awake anymore just thinking about how often we're hearing about how this is going to be the last election of our lifetimes.
