rocketjoe79 saysBlue - sounds like a troll name.
nope, I think he is a real person and is not trolling - I had reasonable discussion with him in another thread
Trump in a narrow Electoral College victory.
That would mean Trump would lose is some states he won in 2016. I do not see that happening.
Blue I think there is a rather large contingent of people from India in Atlanta. Maybe similar to Houston?
Anyhow, what do those people think? I'm assuming some decided to become citizens and can vote but I'm more curious about the overall opinion if that's something you're able to share.
With less people commuting and more early voting, will the Republicans be able to get their base out in equal or better numbers relative to four years ago?

many 'smart' and including U.S.-born went to top schools still commies!! with no tolerance (scary!) that is really puzzling. People who took citizenship tend to be less commie

I see the same in E. European contingent. Parents/grandparents ran away from commies and are reliably (80+%) quite right wing.
Human nature is full of riddles and contradictions; its very complexity engenders art—and by art I mean the search for something more than simple linear formulations, flat solutions, oversimplified explanations. One of these riddles is: how is it that people who have been crushed by the sheer weight of slavery and cast to the bottom of the pit can nevertheless find strength to rise up and free themselves, first in spirit and then in body; while those who soar unhampered over the peaks of freedom suddenly appear to lose the taste for freedom, lose the will to defend it, and, hopelessly confused and lost, almost begin to crave slavery. Or again: why is it that societies which have been benumbed for half a century by lies they have been forced to swallow find within themselves a certain lucidity of heart and soul which enables them to see things in their true perspective and to perceive the real meaning of events; whereas societies with access to every kind of information suddenly plunge into lethargy, into a kind of mass blindness, a kind of voluntary self deception.
It is astonishing that Communism has been writing about itself in the most open way, in black and white, for 125 years, and even more openly, more candidly in the beginning. The Communist Manifesto, for instance, which everyone knows by name and which almost no one takes the trouble to read, contains even more terrible things than what has actually been done. It is perfectly amazing. The whole world can read, everyone is literate, yet somehow no one wants to understand. Humanity acts as if it does not understand what Communism is, as if it does not want to understand, is not capable of understanding.
In 2016, Vegas betting odds were as high as -900 for Hillary Clinton on Election Day. Today they are -180 for Biden.
What that means is that Hillary was 4x more likely to win the election against trump than Biden to win the election against trump.
I actually think Russia has given the world a lot, but the country itself has been very corrupt ever since the Communists took control. The Tsarists at least seemed to have a strong sense of honor and morals.

And every week vegas betting odds gets it very wrong on a lot of football games too. Raiders were suppose to get demolished by the chiefs last week. Vegas gets it wrong.

In a previous job, I noticed some suspicious web traffic coming from Russia and said out loud "Nothing good comes out of Russia." But then I realized that one of the guys was a Russian immigrant. I apologized, but he said no need at all, he agreed completely. He loves America and calls himself "Americanski" if anyone asks about his accent.

Dbr6 saysThen again I see more Biden signs in my neighborhood than I saw Clinton signs 4 yrs ago.
That is interesting as I have seen zilch on Biden signs & Bumperstickers.
I've posted this in other threads, but I think IL might be in play for real as I keep examining this.
I hope you are right but on the other hand my pessimism is telling me that while the anti-Trump white woman vote has hardened the pro-Trump white working class vote that got him elected has cooled since Trump seems to have abandoned his America first platform in going after the black and Hispanic vote which I think isn’t ultimately going to show up for him at the polls.

This election is too close for comfort for me.

rms/ammunition. If Trump wins, we will have status quo for a few more years and I overpaid for firearms.
BTW an interesting observation which may go against hardcore beliefs of patnetters of both left and right persuasions. I have 5 domestic minority students, one black, three Hispanic and one Asian. Black and 2 Hispanic already voted for Trump...I don't know whom Asian and third Hispanic voted for. In contrast, my FUCKING WHITE COLLEAGUES vote for Biden about 70/30 at least, if not more.
Edit: this is TX so i

how about Caviar and beautiful women

Caviar has Turkish or Persian origin I think
Caviar has Turkish or Persian origin I think; Russian womyn can be quite bitchy and at least in my younger days in 90's were extremely slutty.
I believe caviar comes from sturgeons, not turks or persians
physically beautiful
they have quite short half-life for beauty: by about 30, most of them get fat.

I am not sure how it will go. I give it about 50/50...and what we should do is dependent on outcome. Biden win is good for gold immediately, and I have not made a mistake in stocking up on firearms/ammunition. If Trump wins, we will have status quo for a few more years and I overpaid for firearms.

Edit: this is TX so it may be different elsewhere.
