Chris Wallace stated last nite that he feels the SCOTUS doesn't want to be involved.
I'm asking... Can they refuse to review this stuff?
Looks like not a single Republican incumbent lost in the House, not one. They picked up at least six. If that holds, that's remarkable.
This is the most fascinating election of my lifetime.

Yeah they don't take every case petitioned to them, but then you risk letting the lower courts decide the election.
Sure we'll just ignore that the votes were waiting on are from the Phoenix area.
I don’t think Roberts wants to touch this with a 10 foot pole if he can help it.
Everything I've read says probably not. Trump appears to have no valid reason for a challenge even if the court squints really hard.
Absolutely they can refuse.
And I 100% agree with Wallace. I'll admit that I may have missed it, but I'm not seeing a hell of a lot of rabble rousing by establishment Republicans to try to overturn anything in the courts. Maybe that will change, but I'm not seeing it, and judges are the most establishment of them all. Despite all the fearmongering.
I'd be really surprised to see real Republican power brokers lining up in favor of suing this thing into Thanksgiving.
This is the party where everyone got laid except your one friend that insisted on wearing a whole bottle of Drakkar Noir and an "Official Beaver Inspector" T-shirt. I mean, you're going to say the right condolences, but nobody's heart is really going to be broken for him.
Where is the GOP intellectual duo of @Whiskeydeltadeltatango and @Hawkman98 to assist @IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life ? Poor dude is defending his turf all by himself!
The DNC continous to believe that Latinos vote monolithically and a Garcia from Cuba is the same as a Garcia from Nicaragua -- and that is observably false. Further, the DNC fell into the trap that Latinos, generally, don't vote. Historically, this was true for working class. But that is changing. The fact that the DNC ignored Latinos, relegated Julian Castro to a 1 minute statement at the convention.
Dunno what side of the political spectrum you're on but you're right about Julian. I'm Asian American (Indian) and I thought the Harris pick was terrible. What was she going to do? Shore up California? Joe should have picked Julian. Then Florida and Texas are in play and the R's are f'd way harder.
I don't think McConnell and his caucus will overly support any attempt Trump would make to fight the results. Mainly because I don't think Biden scares McConnell one bit. McConnell wields all the Senate power and can fight anything Biden tries to accomplish. The stack of bills will continue to grow on Mitch's desk.
Executive order the turtle's ass. It's basically legislation by fiat. Just Do it As Nike would say. If you win the big enchilada, they let you do many things
It's fun watching him getting crushed on Twitter what a ****ing disgrace to America.
I guess, and then just say "If Donald Trump taught me one thing..."Executive order the turtle's ass. It's basically legislation by fiat. Just Do it As Nike would say. If you win the big enchilada, they let you do many things
Excellent points. I hope the wave of EOs freaks Republicans to hell and back.Executive order the turtle's ass. It's basically legislation by fiat. Just Do it As Nike would say. If you win the big enchilada, they let you do many things
Karma will be a bitch.
Considering the ignorance of most voters and the reason most Cuban-Americans are against Democrats, I'm not sure giving anyone named "Castro" a prominent role at the virtual convention would have been a helpful idea.
Remind me again what people voted for when voting for Trump again? This country is so so ****ing embarrassing.
I would suggest that the idea that the ethnicity of the VP has a minimal affect on the voting pattern of ethnic or racial minorities. And that is the the trap that the DNC keeps falling into. Maybe in the not too distant past, it carried more weight It is patently obvious that policy, messaging and regionality is more important. You just can't say anymore that having Julian Castro--without more substance--would move the dial for Latinos in places outside Texas.
You've got a point but it is plainly obvious that the Latino vote was very soft for Biden.
I was sober when i went to bed at 5am, 4 hour nap.Hope your hangover isn't too bad
This bitch is a long way from over folks.

Neither did I but it sounded good to him. I posted "Trump train" several times but that isnt "in the bag".
