Here's the "say it to my face" line:

Also...UAW planning to endorse Harris.

There was a rift between Biden and the UAW, but Harris appears to have repaired it.

By all accounts she is killing it.

There's no way in hell that MI and PA would have a 15-point difference between Harris and Trump. 

Video game performers will go on strike over artificial intelligence concerns

Hollywood’s video game performers are going on strike, throwing part of the entertainment industry into another work stoppage after talks for a new contract with major game studios broke down over artificial intelligence protections.

Hollywood's video game performers voted to go on strike Thursday, throwing part of the entertainment industry into another work stoppage after talks for a new contract with major game studios broke down over artificial intelligence protections.

 

The strike — the second for video game voice actors and motion capture performers under the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists — will begin at 12:01 a.m. Friday. The move comes after nearly two years of negotiations with gaming giants, including divisions of Activision, Warner Bros. and Walt Disney Co., over a new interactive media agreement.

Quote

Union leaders say they aren't "anti-AI altogether." But voice actors and other video game performers are worried that unchecked use of AI could provide game makers with a means to displace them — by training an AI to replicate an actor's voice, or to create a digital replica of their likeness without consent.

"Sources" in KY say that Andy Beshear has received some kind of additional security detail. No confirmation if it's SS or anything else. He would be a dark horse pick, that's for sure.

We need a poll thread for betting. I think it's between Walz and Shapiro at this point - Kelly hasn't really been doing anything, I don't think he's auditioning for it. I want Walz, but I think she'll go Shapiro to secure PA, and then hope that alienating Muslim voters in MI won't lose them the state.

They should do a Daily Show/Jeopardy thing where they rotate the VP every few weeks to stir up ratings and get a good mix of personalities. 

White Dudes for Harris zoom call raised 4 million tonight. Tomorrow, Harris is doing a rally in Atlanta tomorrow (special guest Megan Thee Stallion) with an expected turnout of 15,000 to 20,000.

Harris's campaign knows what's up - need to use nicknames and bully tactics against Trump.

Roy Cooper Withdraws From Kamala Harris VP Sweepstakes - The New York Times

Mr. Cooper, the governor of North Carolina, had been seen as one of the half-dozen top candidates to join the Democratic presidential ticket. It was not immediately clear why he withdrew.

 

 

Apparently Whitmer has also (at least publicly) withdrawn. Though I don't think she was a top contender.

As someone who has not followed Whitmer rise in Michigan...holy crap, she is an effective speaker. Also likes to swear, which I actually think plays well with average people!

Harris leads Trump in 2024 presidential race

Key takeaways:

• With her favourability up 7 (50%) and her unfavourability down 5 (46%), that's a 12-point swing in a week
• Third-party support is down to 4% in this poll
• In the first week of her being the presumptive nominee, more people said they've heard something good about her, rather than bad (47% to 35%)
• 17-point jump in favourability among independents

What happens to states that are 50-50 in their Congressional delegation? Coin toss? 

It won't even matter because the GOP will have the most state delegations (and each state gets 1 vote) no matter what thanks to all the bumfuck states in the middle with 10 people each.

Harris is smart to refer to these as "Trump abortion bans" every time she references them:

Harris (and ABC) should absolutely insist on going ahead with the debate if Trump refuses to show, and just have her take the questions.

PA will once again take days to count votes thanks to the GOP:

Republicans in the state Senate refused to change the law and allow mail-in votes to be counted ahead of Election Day, despite widespread calls for change.

It will almost certainly look like Trump is carrying it on election night, and then the mail-in ballots will be counted over multiple days.

Wait, Canadians are polling the US now? AR is a major Canadian pollster. Strange! In Canada they are known to have a bit of a house effect towards the Conservatives (though still pretty good).

Dumb libs

 

Depends. You run to win, not to govern. Once you win, you can then change your stances or policies. I can't say whether or not this stance is a winning one. If it wins her the midwest but she loses votes in California and NY, then it's a good stance. If she doesn't, then it's a bad stance. 

Hard to believe it's been six months (two weeks) since Trump was shot, and two months (one week) since Biden withdrew.
