The Second White Flight

November 29, 2020November 28, 2020 ~ SteveH ~ 1 Comment

Until 2020, white flight was always a physical manifestation. Public policy answers for it have always been hard to come by, but what happens when white Republicans simply secede from reality?

“Here's the last toast of the evening, here's to those who still believe All the losers will be winners, all the givers shall receive Here's to trouble-free tomorrows, may your sorrows all be small Here's to the losers, bless them all” -Frank Sinatra

Talking Baseball

November 24, 2020November 24, 2020 ~ SteveH ~ 3 Comments

Paper Bullets of the Mouth? Who would ever allow such a thing? Have they ever met me? And yet, what a pleasant time we had talking about Dodger baseball. A real pleasure after a tremendous season.

Is #Givethanks A Cure Or A Placebo?

November 23, 2020November 23, 2020 ~ SteveH ~ 7 Comments

“Nelson even named the ‘many ills that plague our world, including hate, civil unrest, racism, violence, dishonesty and lack of civility.’ That this is a robust summary of Republican neo-Confederatism is hardly a coincidence.”

“Dear reader, I wish I could say that your quarrel is with a few dozen dead white merchants from the 18th Century, but they have been framed.”

Election Wrap and The Future

November 8, 2020November 8, 2020 ~ SteveH ~ 1 Comment

A few minutes ago, Maricopa County put the last bullet in an already dying corpse, dropping a Biden +11 batch of ballots on top of an earlier batch out of heavily Democratic Apache.

Something interesting just happened that I wanted to note for Arizona. In small Apache County, a small set of ballots was just released that broke down: Biden: 1,805(81.2%)Trump: 396 (17.8%) This is no surprise--this is an Indian reservation county that swings heavily Dem, and these are probably mail votes to boot. And it's very little, … Continue reading Quick Note re Arizona
