430 386 Those states all vote blue anyway. I'm sure they'll be happy that they gave their EVs to whatever Republican that wins next time.
Okay, let's talk just blue states then. How about California? Its legislature DID pass an NPV law, only to have it vetoed by Schwarzenegger. If Jerry Brown becomes governor (which I think is likely) is there any doubt he'll sign NPV if it is passed again and sent to his desk?
NPV has then immediately arrived at 128 electoral votes. Or, nearly half of what it needs.
New York has already PASSED NPV in one chamber and it is currently pending. Is there much doubt that, with an overwhelmingly Democrat Assembly and a Senate that recently tipped to the Dems, it will eventually get such a law through and have it signed by either Paterson or slam-dunk-next-Governor Andrew Cuomo?
NPV then has 159 electoral votes.
Florida, Virginia, New Hampshire, and Maine all have NPV bills pending in their legislatures. All went blue in the last election. All currently have or have recently had Dem or RINO squish governors. If NPV were to pass in all of these states it would then stand at 207 electoral votes.
And those are just states that are or have recently been blue. There are many "red" states with Democrat legislative majorities and/or Democrat governors. Of those, NPV is currently pending in Oklahoma, Missouri, Mississippi and Georgia. If it were to succeed in all of these states, NPV would stand at 246 electoral votes. From there it would take only another state or two for the movement to reach its goal of 270.
Now, make no mistake. NPV still has a long row to hoe. But Massachusetts' passage seems to have come as a shock to a lot of people, meaning this attempt to effectively destory the Electoral College has been able to get to 73 electoral votes without anyone even hearing about it.

SEC Says New Financial Regulation Law Exempts it From Public Disclosure
One money paragraph:
The law, signed last week by President Obama, exempts the SEC from disclosing records or information derived from "surveillance, risk assessments, or other regulatory and oversight activities." Given that the SEC is a regulatory body, the provision covers almost every action by the agency, lawyers say. Congress and federal agencies can request information, but the public cannot.

Not too familiar with Schoen, but Pat Caddell is a Democrat pollster who once worked for Carter and is today one of the few decent and honorable Dems left. He's been calling the party on its communist shit for at least the last ten years.

Hey, I thought of a good structure for a movie about The Most Interesting Man in the World.
Remember Amadeus? You could have a nemisis-foil character (like Salieri) describe his different frustration/awe encounters with TMIMITW. That way, we could see the different times of TMIMITW's life, all the cool things he did, all the victories, all the wisdom, etc.
In the end, our nemisis-foil could ultimately be defeated by a legion of all the young TMIMITWs influenced by The Man's jewels of wisdom.
I'd love to write that story.

Well again; Caddell, as I recall, did. Granted he is an apostate among his Democrat brethren and therefore allowed little media exposure outside of his Fox News appearances.

I recently watched an old interview with Polanski and bride (here, maybe?) and in it she was utterly striking in her beauty. She, also, seemed to exhude some sort of child-woman thing. Very breathy, but not like Monroe. Very sort of child-like.

For what its worth, Kirk is climbing back in IL Senate polling. he trails the Mob Bank Guru by 2 and needs to gain Conservative votes to pull ahead.
Angle needs to pull MODERATE votes to pull ahead of reid who is beating her by 2.
If the moderates (or if you are conservative, the traitorous , evl, heinous Rinos)
and the conservatives (or if you are a moderate, the nutcasey, deranged wackos)
for just ONE-FUCKING-TIME work together to win as many seats as possible in the Senate to STOP Obama,
we'd be at least slightly ahead in 8 races.
Rubio would be beating Crist.
Angle beating Reid
Kirk beating Gioliafucknutus
Stop acting negative and like it is impossible. Remember the Dem strategy memo? to "stimulate strife between wings of the Republican party?"
pollsters like PPP are happy to oblige. The MSM is happy to oblige.
for just 1 fucking cycle, prove them all wrong, win the seats, and bury your balls down their collectivist throats.
I would be HAPPY, HAPPY, to have a circus of a Senate with Paul AND Kirk, Angle AND Fiorina, Rossi AND Castle, Norton AND Toomey, Coats and Boozeman, etc. 51votes means Obama has two options- work for us, or commit total political suicide. Either way is for the better. We don't win the Senate, it will only embolden the left FURTHER.
(for the record I have contributed to Angle,Kirk,Brown and Rubio. I want to WIN and I want the Dems to lose. We are playing right now the way Dems were in the early 2000s. We need to be as ruthless electorally as Dean/Obama in 2006-2008. Or else we have no one to blame for what Obama succeeds in finishing off but ourselves.

a) Kirk has a 4-1 cash advantage he is sitting on, has stopped his sinking and has gained a few points, just NEEDING the cons to climb back onboard, so a 2-3pt race in liberal Illinois is good- remember...ALL the Dems ther are crooks anyway, so beating a mob banker doesnt really matter.
b) because Simmons wont go quietly and the far right wont give up yet on Schiff- unite the Republicans under McMahon, and she starts outspending Blummie, that race will close up tighter than a LA hooker does when you have an empty wallet.)

Yeah, BC, she sounds like she has a permanent headcold. And the material was dumbed down from the British version and re-edited. She sounds like she's reading to children. To paraphrase:
"Heeeeeeeeere comes the fox!"
"And dow the paradise bird decorates his home in the most fashionable way with with the brightest of colors for (pause) sex (said with an obvious mischievous grin, as if sex were a wicked, sneaky subject to be mentioned under your breath for fear the adults might hear you ). He's trying to attract a mate, and he hopes his efforts will not go unnoticed. Well, she will have the final word on that!"
He hopes.
Can you imagine Attenborough or even Sigourney Weaver, who was much, much better, even saying "sex"--and much less saying it as if they were committing some minor, sneaky-fun sin?
