@SenBooker Bravo! Here's hoping you can go longer than Strom Thurmond did trying to block civil rights legislation,

The longest speech in Senate history should be for a noble purpose, rather than defending segregation.

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@Bilbo161 @tangotiger You are more confident in predicting the future than me, but assuming you're entirely correct, staying solely here reduces exposure to voices of those who choose Bluesky only.

Diversity is a matter of degree, not a binary. Exposure to two platforms is more diverse than just one.

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@kareem_carr Okay, but the modelers I followed were also saying 50-50 means more uncertain than *that* close. Stuff like about half the time one candidate sweeps all 7 battleground states, but we don't know which one.

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@IanDMorrison Votes are still being counted. In many states mail ballots postmarked on election day count, and those haven't fully arrived.

The number of missing Democrats will shrink as more votes come in.

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@TheRickWilson @digby56 And John Roberts

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@justinbaragona @digby56 'Decisively' is arguably true of the electoral college in '16, but that word is misleading about popular sentiment.

Hillary Clinton got ~3 million *more* votes than Trump.

@joshtpm Driving in northern NYS Sat my spouse saw a homemade sign with a toilet seat and a sketch of Trump's hair with the caption 'Sometimes you have to flush twice'.

@NateSilver538 If I were a SCOTUS reporter, I'd hate my phone's autocorrect.

It changes Alito to Halitosis.

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@billjamesonline @MLBMetrics No, but having a team from the two largest media markets generates more local interest than most years.

Plus plenty of people will watch to root against the Yankees. I'd guess above recent average ratings.

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@digby56 Spiro Agnew?

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@lxeagle17 @NateSilver538 @SplitTicket_ Seems majority red to me.

I think it would make a great twitter poll. Or bluesky...

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@MarkCHealey Didn't think you were that old!

But at least you didn't say Power Memorial...

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@tangotiger John Wathan would like a word... And Don Baylor, although maybe he'd stopped running by then. ;-)

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@ckurcon By left on base you presumably mean those stranded by relievers. Those on when a pitcher leaves who score are charged to that pitcher. At first I misunderstood.

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@craigcalcaterra Nine - teen - eight - teen!

Clap clap clapclapclap!

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@Roto_Wizard Framing is backwards - the Yankees are walking well, but not hitting with men on!

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@tangotiger I'm still amazed they happen at all! I know most of reaction is practiced reflex, but still I'd have to think doing an interview like this is at least slightly distracting.

If it were just the All Star Game, it would be fine, but for games that matter it's terrible.

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@brianbeutler @digby56 Not sure about Harris, but thanks to John Roberts, Biden's got plenty he can do!

[Geoff Buchan @RotoValue]

@vanguard_pod @BenjaminPDixon At what point does the show's name itself become false advertising? Uygur is 54, which is at least middle aged. Maybe he feels he needs Kasparian because she'ds still under 40!
