As much as it pains me to admit it, the final tally looks to me like a 270-268 Biden win.  Since the GOP will hold the Senate, other than repealing Trump's tax cut and taking an average of $6500 from every American family on "day one," I don't see Biden being able to raise taxes significantly.

Though more likely, they just like the idea of divided government and because of the end of uncertainty. I don't quite agree that this is a shock and never believed the whole "Blue Wave" thing your idiot pal has told us we were expecting. In fact, this result is EXACTLTY what I was expecting. Even Trump expected it because he long ago TOLD US what he'd do when it happened. The only question is, will the government structures let him get away with it. I'm betting no.
The real surprise to me is that the Dems actually lost seats in the House and I'd hoped they'd do better in the Senate. The good news is, with Biden as Prez it's more likely both sides can cross the aisle and actually legislate.
Your idiot friend will HATE that. LOL
I'll just be happy when Toxic Trump is gone. And that looks VERY likely.

but CDL you were way off on your original prediction. It is not over YET though for Biden camp.

in the house are often reflective of what happens in presidential years. Even though Trump looks like he will lose, he did better in some counties than he did last time, and so that may have boosted some of the GOP house candidates.  The one I don't get is the two seats that went to the Q-Anon candidates.  They are just as crazy as the Antifa crowd.  I think the young Senator-elect James in Michigan is going to be a rock star in future GOP politics.  He's got a great personal story like Tim Scott.

where I have ever supported or agreed with QAnon.  Just because my prediction was wrong doesn't make me a wacko.  Most everyone's prediction here was wrong because its a lot closer than anyone thought.  Yours was wrong, too, so are you a wacko?

WHERE the outstanding ballots are left in Nevada.  If its rural Nevada, Trump will win and then he still needs PA (assuming he gets NC and GA).  If the remaining votes are from Clark County or Reno, they will favor Biden and he gets Nevada.  I made my prediction of 270 based on Joe taking NV, MI and WI.  That gets him to exactly 270 because he picked up the separate one vote from Nebraska, which Trump was expected to take.

I always thought it would be close.
Not a wacko.

the voice of reason.  Maybe you should go into politics since you seem to know how this shit works from the inside.   It could be a good way to come out of retirement to earn a few extra bucks to make up for the currency devaluation hit guys like us will take under the Biden administration. LOL

Without control of Congress "most" of the things the idiot left wants to do, end the filibuster, pack the court, end Capital Gains exclusion, the Green New Deal etc etc etc, all those things are now dead on arrival.  

That's why a few years ago the EU wanted Greece out, because their debt was getting so big they feared a devaluation of the Euro.  Other EU nations had to bail them out to keep the Euro from tanking.  If our debt climbs faster than the economy grows, it weakens the dollar.  Its a bad thing because people that are retired, like a lot of the guys here, may have a million dollars in dollar-based investments, and they can wake up one morning and find it will only buy $800,000 worth of goods. The still have the Million dollars, but it only has the purchasing power of $800,000.  They have lost 20% of the VALUE.  

I wonder if our professional know-it-all is embarrassed? But, no. He's beneath that.

Also, valuation of $ cuts both ways - weak $ is good for export and bad for import! etc.

You man'd up and you put your name on some shit. You took it in the ass but you hung in there...I like that. Now unlike some of your wormly like counterparts, who ran and hid, and now they feel like they can spike the ball, well fuck them
So, even though I'll disagree with you on 99.9% of the issues here, I gotta give it to you.
Now, my predictions were really all fucked up...I had fucking shitthole Texas flipping, WTF was I thinking. From here going on out...Texas= Alabama. NEVER AGAIN

But while your understanding of basic economics is correct, except that it applies more to inflation than currency fluctuations, the rest of your reasoning is all fucked up. There is NOTHING to make a person believe that Biden, with a GOP Senate to keep him under control, will run up the debt any faster than Trump would have done. Actually the GOP is MORE likely to resist higher spending under Biden than they would have fought Trump on the issue of a multi-Trillion dollar infrastructure bill. So your dollar based assets have little chance of devaluing just because Trump may be leaving office. Actually if you had been paying attention for the last four years it's been Trump saying that the dollar is too strong and has taken steps to keep the dollar from getting too strong.

Biden is a head by 8K at NV when it is all SAID & DONE, Nevada will be for Biden by 20K-22K votes. Large swaths of uncounted vote are from Clark County where it is it most populous.

My ass will heal in a few days.  Don't give up on Texas as a blue state.  More Californian move to Texas than anyplace else.  You would think that they are leaving California to get away from one-party rule, which I think most rational people would agree  is always dangerous, but many will still vote Democratic in Texas until they turn Texas into California. If the exodus continues, 2024 may be a lot closer, or even the year of the flip.  

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

personality.  She is, in many ways, a female version of Trump.  We had her in CA as attorney general before she ran for Boxer's seat in the Senate.  She is smug, arrogant, condescending and elitist.  Nobody here liked her, but the tech money from Silicon Valley funded her Senate campaign and outspent the opponent 10-1.  They had an ad campaign that was totally fabricated, but low information voters backed her and she won.  The tech Corps liked her because she can be bought,  She was funded by Planned Parenthood running for AG, and once elected, used her official power to go after critics of PP.  

Look it up.  Just because you don't like it doesn't change the facts.  I lived in CA during the entire time she fucked and sucked her way up the latter, first as married Speaker Willie Brown's slut mistress, and then a few others who could help her career.
