Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

These two points cannot be emphasized enough. The war is far from over, but the fact that we've won the battle is an immense white pill, at least to me. All I can say is the Twitterati/journoscum's tears are gonna be delicious.

The pollsters, for once, were not gay.

That's what good polling is supposed to be.
There were still exceptional polls that put McAuliffe at +1 lol.

Oh fuck, I hadn't even -considered- that. Ho fuck. I was wrapped up in surprise I didn't think.
When the infrastructure bill dies, the Cabal War is going -nuclear-. If even lesser strongholds like Jersey can get this close, fuck if it -falls-, then that is a -ton- of normally safe seats and positions at risk.
Not only won it, but won it ahead of schedule. By a year.These two points cannot be emphasized enough. The war is far from over, but the fact that we've won the battle is an immense white pill, at least to me. All I can say is the Twitterati/journoscum's tears are gonna be delicious.
They hedged. Plus, they were still coming out with bullshit Murphy+11 polls.
GOP pollsters saved the average somewhat, but it was still Murphy +7.
more or less tied with only a quarter of the vote out. Enough left it could go either way.

I would also like to point out that this failed in NJ:
I have nothing against gambling hell I have made a lot of money gambling but this slide into government endorsed aka taxable gambling on everything needs to stop.
Maybe people are not completely fucking retarded.

Watching MSNBC and they're already shifting to "this prog shit is poison" as the lesson for the night.

It would certainly make sense for them to change their approach but the problem is that they're in a civil war right now so if any Dem leader tries to make changes to the platform, it'll open them to attack by another faction.
For example, let's say that Pelosi comes out and says that the Virginia election and the Loudoun County controversy in particular show that the Dems need to take a less hardline stance on transgender issues and consider multiple perspectives. The progressives will go ballistic and say that she's literally murdering trans people and she needs to be replaced with a prog. Same deal if they try to soften the "abolish police" language. If they try to back down on vaccine mandates, the pharma sponsors will be pissed.
But this looks inevitable anyway, since Pelosi won't be speaker for much longer the party is headed for a vicious fight over the platform. The progressives are really an albatross on the Dems because they exist in such an extreme ideological echo chamber and have no idea how the majority of the country thinks. In the coastal urban bugman hives where progs get elected no one ever utters a word against eternal mask mandates or Drag Queen Story Hour so they can't grasp how anyone could oppose those policies. Ultimately they'll lead the party down a suicidal path.

On one hand, I am a bit surprised by this. On the other, it makes sense that they throw the progs to the wolves.

So, here's something interesting in Buffalo. I've never seen anything like this before.
In the mayor race, a Democratic Socialist woman India B. Walton upset the incumbent mayor Byron Brown in the Dem primary. So Brown decided to launch a fierce "Write in" campaign to keep his job. Somehow it's working, because Brown is winning. There is no Republican candidate.
As anyone ever lost their party's primary and then won the general election anyway? I'm sure it's happened before, but I would think it's rare.

If AOC flips to the moderates, then we know the progs are officially pariahs.

People that speak for 8% of the population are going to drag a major political party that has existed for two centuries to destruction, what a truly exceptional group of individuals.
