    The deep, dark secret of Rugged Individualist America is that we're carrying you. Have fun with your local economy when federal ag subsidies stop coming.

      yeah because you have a way to get money to all the folks, businesses, etc who are getting it from the feds. Your local govt could handle that?, bullcrap. The hospitals will shut down, the banks shut down, everyone everywhere is screwed if it lasts anytime. Whats the % of folks in your area getting paychecks from the Fed?

        Alaska's *show of a 2016 Senate election gets better: Former Sen. Mark Begich considering Write-in campaign.

        To recap, that would put us at 5 viable candidates in the election.

        Lisa Murkowski: Incumbent and Republican nominee. Won last term with a write-in campaign but has eroded support due to moving right in last few years.

        Joe Miller: Nutbar, Tea Party, former Republican nominee now running as a Libertarian.

        Ray Metcalfe: Former Republican running as a Democrat. Has zero support from the State Party.

        Margaret Stock: Independent candidate. Former Lt. Col. in Army Reserve. Worked as an immigration attorney in the Army. Been running for a year so has money raised.

        Mark Begich: Former Democratic Senator who lost reelection two years ago.

            538 has Democratic chances of taking the Senate improving again. Perhaps the counter-counter-counter-counter reaction has begun...

            Favorites (in order of likelihood) for 5 pick ups (need 4) and no drops:

            WI 94%
            IL 81
            IN 79
            NH 56
            PA 56

            Chalk would give us 51-49.

            PA is starting to look like the most important state in the union.

              I think he's wondering the same thing. But he is one fainting spell on national TV from being the nominee.

                He can't be the nominee at this point, at least not in a great many states. The deadline for getting your name on the ballot has passed in MN, which the MN GOP almost failed to do for Trump - and is still being contested in court now by the DFL (state's D party) because the MNGOP failed to secure some technicality with regards to delegates at the time of filing.

                  If a nominee is unable to run (death, incarceration, withdrawal) the party may sub anyone up to 11/8. That person goes on the ballot.

                  If the same thing happens after the election but before the electoral college meets, then a sub is announced and it is up to the EC to vote for that person or not.

                    From Elizabeth Warren's Facebook.

                    The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau caught Wells Fargo in a massive, years-long scam. The CEO hasn’t resigned. He hasn’t fired one senior executive. Instead, Wells Fargo’s definition of “accountable” is to push blame on low-level employees who don’t have the money or PR firms to defend themselves. That’s gutless leadership.
                    God Bless her.

                      WF's stock price is up today. It had been down prior to Warren's grandstanding, but Stumpf must've given one heck of a retort to all of her questions and accusations that impressed Wall Street more than it did Warren.

                      With that said, WF's Retail Banking chief announced back at the start of summer that she was retiring effective the end of September. Hmmm, that's some auspicious timing for her.

                        Have you seen the size of her retirement package? You could buy a few countries.

                            You say "Wells Fargo" and "Warren" and I'm sorry, I think of Warren Buffett. His Berkshire Hathaway holds about 10% of Wells Fargo stock. Should Sen. Warren be firing that close to one of Mr. Obama's supporters?
