@PNCBank_Help I'm sitting at one of your ATMs, which has swallowed my card and the checks I was trying to deposit and is now frozen and there is no evening assistance
@lxeagle17 I agree Harris has done well, but I'm not convinced that Biden dropping out earlier and the party going through a damaging primary was actually going to put our candidate in a better position than Harris busting out of the gate in July with crazy enthusiasm.
@ddayen That's nice. When stuff like this happens, I feel like you kind of shrug your shoulders and go. Yeah, that's what corporate America does and you feel angry and impotent. Dealing with this kind of stuff is what government should be doing.
@lxeagle17 I think everyone is just losing their minds. No one thought we could be in this position & no one knows what to do about it. It's so hard to say level-headed when we're on a knife's edge for something that shouldn't even be a question.
@mattyglesias@lxeagle17 I agree with a lot of Matt's takes; I disagree with some. But the Bullock takes are the funniest. If Bullock was going to inspire anyone... He would have inspired someone.
@lxeagle17@mattyglesias I think the mixture of the gop beating polling in two subsequent presidential elections and the absolutely terrifying consequences of Trump winning means that having a slightly better than a coin flip chance in this election is cause for dooming.
@lxeagle17 But we still hear "throw it in the average" and trust the polls and we can't predict the direction of the error...
How should knowing this is going on affect our thoughts when reading polls and averages and models? How do we get useful takeaways?
