The platform has changed fundamentally. Its not Twitter anymore. Its the Nazi bar.

Looks like the datasets consist of every poll from October and November. Would love to see a time axis.

I think the consensus is generally that it's better data analysis but most of the journalistic team is gone. Still plenty of solid stuff. I would say it's probably competitive with a couple of other similarly lightweight models and teams/individuals. Nate Silver's kind of gone off the deep end since he least.

His facts weren't wrong. The UAW has just changed their tune since yesterday.

This is about polls. Not democrats speaking publicly.

Calling the progressive wing of the party corporate democrats is just straight up in denial.

This argument is nonsense. It works for them and not for us because they are FASCISTS. This relationship with the truth and cult of personality are essential tenants of fascism. No amount of whataboutism will solve the Biden's electoral issues.

doesn’t even care if their candidate raped a child and tried to overthrow their government

It's right there. It's because his voters don't care. Calls to drop out from a faction Trump calls 'the enemy of the people', is a huge waste of time.

Yes but she's capable of actually campaigning. Expectations have been clear since the debate. If he got right out there and started campaigning immediately, he'd probably be doing fine. It's becoming clear however that he can't.

Let your heart guide you.

The party leaders aren't the ones preventing a move on Biden. Basic support for Biden is tantamount to no action at this point but they are generally taking a wait and see approach. Im mostly taking about the political influencers telling you not to believe your eyes and ears.

What's wrong with Kamala? Seems like Progressives have largely gotten over her record as AG. That's why they hid her in the first place.

Nobody is making that argument. You were the person the op was taking about. Nobody's going to vote trump over Palestine.

Personally i think they're just as scared as we are. They're just too fucking old to have a realistic picture of the political landscape. Gen X is going to get us all killed.

Mostly homophobia I would guess.

And it wasn't the last time. Remember super Tuesday?

In my memory people considered them meh at best but I had some fun. I remember the DS version in particular being pretty dope.

This is exactly the issue. The bar was set so low. He was barely able to put together a coherent response to the infanticide claims, which was something even the lowest of information voters know is a lie. He let Trump walk all over him on immigration even though Biden put together a "bipartisan" plan that was just a Republican wishlist. If Biden had articulated any of that we'd probably be having a different conversion.
