The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways.
Please note that you can switch between light and dark modes by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of the main menu bar.
We are hoping that this new platform will prove to be faster and more reliable. Please feel free to explore its features.
Right - and my point (as a mainly democrat voting centrist) is that i hope the party does not continue to move left to embrace the DSA platform. I have not been making accusations - I'm reading what is in the DSA platform. (Much of which I think is too extreme - and also not a platform that...
The Biden infrastructure bill was a travesty? Noted.
And yes - it is crazy that the Republicans have somehow been able to maintain the image of being the fiscally responsible party when it is pretty clear they are not.
Fair enough - while i am probably more center-left on most issues, your point stands on being center-ish in a deep blue state.
Regardless, I'd still say it is lazy to fall into name calling (Moron etc) rather than going with constrictive political diologue.
But in your hypothetical, Trump...
I understand that is your perspective. I also get that it is difficult for someone on the farther ends of the political spectrum to understand. Just as you believe i want Republicanism, if the bulk of this board were on the far right, I'd be being told I'm a democrat/ liberal / socialist etc etc
You missed the point.... it was in response to Rufus referring to someone not supporting a 5.5 Trillion dollar reconciliation process as a lost cause. Im not sure why someone thinking that a 5.5 trillion dollar bill should go through regular order vs reconciliation would be considered a lost cause.
So any opinion that is not far left is a lost cause (Particularly in the scenario where Bernie is president and AOC is VP - where I assume you are no longer worried about saving democracy). Got it. Enjoy your circle jerk / echo chamber.
I assume the "cause" you are advocating for would be to encourage people to vote for Democrats. Throwing out terms like moron etc may make you feel better and all but really paints you in a bad light.
As to your question - a $5.5 trillion reconciliation bill? I'd say i probably would vote for...
Again - it is lazy and does nothing to help (and in fact probably hurts) your cause.
At this particular moment probably El-Sayed as while Trump is in office I believe it is important for Democrats to take the senate.
In other scenarios i may very well cross the aisle on this one. (For...
It should not be that hard to understand.... they are a pro-Israel lobbying group and believe Israel is fighting terrorists that want to eliminate Jews off the planet. You can disagree with Israel's response of course but AIPAC's motives are pretty obvious.
I was reflecting on this last night - and not sure what to make for a prediction. IN 2024 Rogers lost very narrowly.
On one hand I'm concerned that many of the swing voters/independents will view El-Sayed as too extreme and too far left, but on the other hand he may be able to win over many of...
Hard to get info here - but getting really tight. I think NBC and Newsmax are the only ones to have projected El-Sayed as the winner. Down to a difference of appx 14,000 with perhaps mostly mail in ballots to be counted from Wayne county that have been trending to Stevens..
Edit: CNN...
Correct - as i've been pretty clear about in prior posts - while I've always been registered as an independent there was a time i was probably closer to a moderate republican - however, especially in the Trump era, that party has left my (my views have really not changed) so in more recent years...
Context and office matters. Particularly in the Trump era, I would like to see the Democrats take the house and senate. So yes, as an example, here in MA, i will be voting for the democratic candidate regardless of who wins. While i would prefer a different senator that Warren, I have also...
