@SADDAY_EVERYDAY@TheDemocrats Yes, it was until recently. But your point really doesn’t make sense given the fact that they removed Iowa for this exact reason.
@RedStallion41@ec_schneider In every previous election, the debates and party communications have been framed around NH the first contest, which is part of the reason why it’s actually important. I doubt it will have the same effect when this is treated as a fake contest.
@RedStallion41@ec_schneider The DNC can simply ignore the results of the NH primary if that happens. It’s a private political organization, not the governement.
@CartoonsHateHer I suspect a very large amount of stories are misleading and you’re either taking them too literally or the women are being hyperbolic. It’s a common courtesy to say women appear younger than they actually are.
@MarcGoldwein If I made <50K a year and had a family, I could easily see taking the guaranteed option. The marginal utility can change drastically depending on your circumstances.
@mattyglesias I think this is mostly due to polarization. In the speech, he’s implicitly conceding that some conservative values are legitimate, but saying they don’t apply here.
