There are reasons why Keisha Lance Bottoms (are we really going to give her the JFK/FDR moniker?) might be a bad general election candidate,
but none of these are it.
The center says has it has learned from its mistakes. In practice, its voters keep lining up behind electoral poison. Here’s the untold story behind KLB, Actually Existing Centrism, and why the left is the only real alternative to electoral oblivion. https://t.co/PtvjgUGn14
@griftdrift Mike Thurmond was right there, and so was Jason Estevez if you wanted someone further to the left. Dude acts like the only alternative was Geoff Duncan, who wound up finishing fourth.
The surprising thing isn’t that a Mormon dude who went to Ole Miss is MAGA, it’s that his walk up music is “Eye of the Tiger.” For a second I thought he was announcing he was going back to college to play for Lane Kiffin at LSU.
Tim Denson (38%) and Dexter Fisher (28%) headed to a runoff in Athens mayor’s race. Ed Tolley, Patrick Davenport and Tiffany Taylor won their commission races. Kimberly Bennett and Craig Topple in a D5 runoff. Possibly Ovita Thornton and Tracy Smith in D9.
Impeccable logic: I left Ole Miss because I thought I’d have a better chance of winning a natty at LSU, but maybe if I’d stayed at Ole Miss we would’ve won a natty.
Dude must’ve majored in basket weaving at the academic powerhouse of *checks notes* Fresno State
NEW: Lane Kiffin to @whalexander_ on not coaching Ole Miss in the CFP after taking the LSU job:
“Obviously, I wish the timing was different. There was no way around it. Tried to do everything possible to still coach and, obviously, that was (athletic director Keith Carter’s) decision and understandable. Do I still wish that had happened? Yeah, I do. I wish that would have been allowed to happen.
Maybe we would have won it all.”

@RachelBitecofer@DavidShafer Dude, I’m 46 and I remember Klan marches being on the TV news as a kid growing up in Atlanta. A grand dragon ran for governor of Louisiana in the ‘90s.
@kebruf7@Emoryguy@mlbbowman $20 mil on a one year deal is market rate for an average starter these days. Baez and Story used to be stars and got 6-7 year deals at ~$25 mil per year. Big difference. That’s why you sign Kim instead of a guy like Bichette.
Christie: If I were running the DCCC right now, I would take every Democratic candidate incumbent challenger, and send them to Turks and Caicos until November. Say nothing. Do nothing. Shut up. You sound stupid too. But if you go until November, you will not piss anybody off.
Wild that the 60-year-old Braves manager got involved, but then I remembered a story @RealCJ10 told about how nobody was worried when Jose Canseco charged the mound because Walt Weiss is an MMA fighter.
