Watch Crowd Boo New DNC Chair Tom Perez at DNC 'Unity Tour' Cortney O'Brien | April 18, 2017 facebook

twitter Watch Crowd Boo New DNC Chair Tom Perez at DNC 'Unity Tour' New Democratic National Committee Chair Tom Perez picked up where his profanity-laced tirade left off last month at the DNC’s “Come Together Fight Back” tour in Portland, Maine Monday. Perez again went on a rant against Republicans, slamming their new “sh**ty” budget" and dismissing their health care plan, insisting the GOP "does not give a sh*t about the people they are trying to hurt."

His appearance was doomed from the start, judging by the reaction he got during the introductions.

The leader of the Maine Young Democrats opened the rally by asking the audience who or what brought them out. When she mentioned Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, the crowd applauded and cheered his name. When she mentioned Perez, the room changed.

Clearly, he's not impressing progressives.

He Said God Is Great In Arabic They may have appeared on the same stage, but Perez and Sanders appear to be at odds over the future of the Democratic party. Sanders, for instance, said the DNC should have put more resources into the Kansas special election last week, where Republican Ron Estes defeated his Democratic opponent James Thompson by 6 points.

The Democrats' apathy in that race proves the Democratic party is “giving up,” Sanders argued. Perez pushed back the following day, insisting they sent plenty of volunteers to Kansas and their ability to come within single digits of the Republican candidate in a beet red district was a “success.”

Despite the underlying factions, the Democratic unity tour is expected to stop in all 50 states.

I'll leave you with this.

Decision Day: Anti-Trump 'Resistance' Pushing Hard for Georgia Special Election Upset

Voters in Georgia's 6th Congressional Decision Day: Anti-Trump 'Resistance' Pushing Hard for Georgia Special Election Upset Guy Benson | April 18, 2017 facebook

twitter

Decision Day: Anti-Trump 'Resistance' Pushing Hard for Georgia Special Election Upset Voters in Georgia's 6th Congressional District go to the polls today to select a replacement for now-HHS Secretary Tom Price. We mentioned this race last week ahead of the special election in Kansas -- which the GOP won, albeit by an uninspiring margin (for a number of reasons). Flipping that deep crimson district was a long shot all along, but Democrats have had their sights set on this Georgia contest ever since the vacancy arose. Price carried the seat comfortably in November, winning roughly 62 percent of the vote. It may be a Republican district, but it's not a Trump district; the president barely eked out a one-point victory over Hillary Clinton there, and Marco Rubio beat him handily in GA-06 during the GOP presidential primary last March. Democrats and liberal groups have been pumping huge sums of out-of-state money into the campaign, hoping to propel 30-year-old political neophyte Jonathan Ossoff to an upset victory. They're framing this as a referendum on an President Trump. How is that expected to play out? Signals are mixed. A few recent data points:

Those tweets contain hopeful and concerning news there for the Ossoff campaign: First off, if he is truly floating the 45 percent neighborhood, that means he's in striking distance of hitting 50-plus-one percent tonight -- which would be an outright victory, avoiding a June run-off that many Georgia political analysts believe would be a significantly heavier lift for the Democrats. The conventional wisdom is that Ossoff's best chance at a win is right here and right now, with Republican support fractured across an eleven-candidate GOP field. Democrats, by contrast, coalesced behind Ossoff early on. If Democrats' hyper-energized base turns out in large numbers, while disengaged or complacent Republicans underperform, Ossoff can win. Remember, the margin in that Kansas special election swung in Democrats' direction by double digits a week ago, compared to the fall general (with the caveat in place that it's probably a mistake to read too deeply into that result).

Enthusiasm anecdotes and early voting trends suggest that Ossoff was off to a fast start. On the other hand, the GOP appears to have caught up on the latter metric, and most polling has Ossoff in the low-40's, which simply would not cut it. Plus, that (+9) Trump approval rating would suggest that the off-year GA-06 electorate is more favorably disposed toward the president than voters were a few months ago. On the other-other hand, raise your hand if you're willing to put your faith in public polling of a single Congressional District, in an unusual and unpredictable political environment. On the other-other-other hand, Trump's poor approval ratings appear to be ticking up again nationally. The smart money says that Ossoff fails to stave off a run-off, but it's been a weird two years in American politics. In any case, President Trump waded into the race on Twitter over the weekend:

I'm not sure Trump's analysis of the Kansas dynamics and outcome quite hit the mark, but his criticism of the media's "Trump backlash" narrative (state and federal electoral evidence thus far: Zero), as well as shots at Ossoff indicate that he decided to do his part to motivate the Republican base down the home stretch. Democratic intensity can't get much hotter, but generally-satisfied GOP voters sitting at home is a real risk. I'll leave you with our conversation about Democrats' efforts to regroup from Outnumbered yesterday afternoon:

UPDATE - Over the closing days of the campaign, the DCCC has been doing what it does best: Scaring the bejesus out of its low-level donors in order to wring every possible fundraising dollar out of them. Provocative subject lines are a staple of political fundraising, but this particular committee has really perfected 'give us cash' apocalyptic hyperventilation:

UPDATE II - Here's a late ad from the RNC casting Ossoff as a spoiled carpetbagging liberal, which doesn't even touch on his national security resume embellishments:

On Thanksgiving, celebrated in America on the last Thursday of November, friends and families gather around tables to feast and give thanks. This holiday has origins dating back nearly 400 years when early American settlers met the Native American Wampanoag people. It was 1620 in Plymouth, Massachusetts when Mayflower colonists and the Wampanoag forged a partnership of necessity. Decimated by an epidemic and wary of the mightier Narragansett, their nearby enemies, the Wampanoag and the newcomers become allies. The pilgrims were unfamiliar with Massachusetts’ natural resources and ill-equipped for survival - but Tisquantum, an English-speaking Patuxet Wampanoag, taught them how to hunt, gather shellfish, and plant corn, beans, and squash. Following harvest in the fall of 1621, the settlers and the Wampanoag, celebrated what’s considered the “First Thanksgiving,” a three-day feast with wild duck, goose, turkey, deer, and barley ale. Evocative of American folk art, with quilt-like patterning and simple shapes, today’s Doodle, rendered in a rich harvest-colored palette, is an ode to this season of togetherness.

The Return of Assassination Fascination Michelle Malkin | November 23, 2016 Alert the CDC: Left-wing America has been overcome by another contagious epidemic of assassination fascination. It's time to declare a public health crisis. In San Antonio last week, two high school students performed a sicko skit depicting the assassination of President-elect Donald Trump. In Cleveland, unhinged 24-year-old Zachary Benson tweeted his "life goal is to assassinate Trump." The hashtag #AssassinateTrump surfaced on Twitter, along with a flood of bloodthirsty death wishes. Another #AssassinateTrump threat came from Atlanta public transit employee Aleama Philips, who tweeted, "I wish I had the balls to kill him myself," illustrated with a photo of Trump dead and riddled with bullets. She was fired by the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority last week. SEE ALSO WaPo: The Working Class Broke For Trump Because Clinton Cared More About Bathrooms Than Jobs In San Diego, the loony (and now former) CEO of cybersecurity firm PacketSled, Matt Harrigan, took to Facebook on election night to declare: "I'm going to kill the president." He further threatened that he was "getting a sniper rifle and perching myself where it counts. Find a bedroom in the White House that suits you, [expletive]. I'll find you." In the music world, rapper Rick Ross vowed to "assassinate Trump like I'm (George) Zimmerman." Inevitably, the Kill Trump mania has spread overseas. French radio host Pablo Mira reportedly gloated: "Donald Trump and his victory have given a hope in the American people -- the hope that he would be killed even before his inauguration." Where is your condemnation of these perverted incitements to violence, President Obama? Where are you, media concern trolls, to bemoan the anti-Trump culture of hatred and climate of intolerance? AWOL, of course. The Blame Righty crowd that has falsely blamed random shootings and suicides on conservative talk radio, the tea party, right-wing blogs and Fox News is nowhere to be found when left-wing violent extremism rears its ugly head. Double-standard-itis is a chronic and recurring condition, accompanied by politically expedient amnesia. Assassination chic was all the rage when George W. Bush took office and extended throughout his two terms in office. I remember -- even if the civility and tolerance police at The New York Times don't. Protesters displayed signs of a decapitated Bush gushing blood from his neck and slogans proclaiming "Bush -- the only dope worth shooting." "Kill Bush" T-shirts spattered with fake blood went on sale at CafePress.com. An art exhibit in Chicago featured Al Brandtner's work titled "Patriot Act," a sheet of mock 37-cent red, white and blue stamps showing a handgun pointed at Bush's head. Off-Broadway play "I'm Going to Kill the President" led audience members in a group chant screaming, you guessed it, "I'm Going to Kill the President." "Comedian" Rich Hall performed a public hate anthem, "Let's get together and kill George Bush." Former Democratic Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear joked: "When I mention that Democrats are problem solvers, I can think of only one Republican who can be a problem solver -- that is Vice President Dick Cheney (who accidentally shot a hunting companion in 2006) if he would just take George on a hunting trip." Nicholson Baker penned "Checkpoint," a novella conversation between two people debating assassinating President Bush with "radio-controlled flying saws" or a "remote-controlled boulder made of depleted uranium." Sarah Vowell wrote "Assassination Vacation," a best-selling murder travelogue of assassinated Republican presidents, in which she confessed she was so crippled by hatred of Bush that she couldn't even write his name and admitted that her "simmering rage against the current president scares me." Across the pond, Guardian columnist Charlie Brooker lamented Bush's election with a screed asking, "John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, John Hinckley Jr. -- where are you now that we need you?" British docudrama "Death of a President" imagined the assassination of Bush by a gunman at the Chicago Sheraton hotel after an anti-war rally. And Code Pink poster woman Cindy Sheehan penned an autobiography in which she confessed her presidential murder fantasy -- going back in time and killing the infant Bush in order to prevent the Iraq War. She admitted she had entertained this infanticidal fantasy "often." From "Kill Bush" to #AssassinateTrump, the naked hypocrisy of the "love and peace" left is on full display. Spare us the lectures about diversity, tolerance and safe spaces. Look in the mirror. Put down the haterade. Seek help.

NEWS Long-Term Opioid Use Patterns Compared for Alzheimer's, Non-Alzheimer's Patients November 15, 2016Share A new study found long-term use of transdermal opioid patches to be twice as common among Alzheimer's disease patients as it is for those without Alzheimer's disease, additionally, of those who initiate opioid use, one-third become long-term users. The study was conducted by researchers from the University of Eastern Finland, who used data from the Finnish nationwide registers to identify 62,074 people diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease during 2005-2011. These patients were matched with a comparison person of the same age, sex and region of residence who did not have an Alzheimer's disease diagnosis. The authors aimed to study the prevalence of long-term (at least 180 days) use of opioids for non-malignant pain and related factors among community-dwelling persons with Alzheimer's disease and to compare the prevalence to a matched group without Alzheimer's disease. They found that 7.2% of those with Alzheimer's disease used opioids for non-cancer pain long-term vs. 8.7% of those without Alzheimer's disease. Among patients who initiated opioid use, however, long-term use was more prevalent in those with Alzheimer's disease vs. those without (34.2% vs. 32.3%; P=0.0004). Transdermal opioids use was more than double in opioid users with Alzheimer's vs. those without (13.2% vs. 5.5%). Among those with Alzheimer's disease, opioid use was "strongly associated" with transdermal opioids.

Final Monmouth Poll: Clinton Hits 50 and Leads By Six, Plus Updates From Key Battlegrounds Guy Benson | November 07, 2016 It's an outlier, in that Hillary hits the magic number 50 in Monmouth's last nationwide survey of the cycle; something she hasn't done in a single four-way national poll since a crazy AP survey (Clinton +14) in late-ish October. Beyond that point, she's held a consistent lead -- almost always bouncing around between 44 and 48 percent support, with Trump generally in the upper 30's to mid-40's. This one looks different, apparently due to a small Hillary surge among late-breaking voters:

NEWS Asthma May Decrease Clot Retraction Rate November 04, 2016Share HealthDay News — Clot retraction rate (CRR) and fibrinolysis rate (FR) are reduced in steroid-naive asthma, according to a study published online October 14 in Allergy. Maria M. Tomasiak-Lozowska, MD, PhD, from the Medical University of Bialystok in Poland, and colleagues assessed CRR, FR, clot density (CD), plasma levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) and factor XIII (FXIII), nitric oxide (NO) in exhaled breath (FENO), spirometry (forced expiratory volume in one second [FEV1]), and eosinophil count (EOS) in allergic, steroid-naive asthma patients (36 patients) and healthy controls (34 patients). The researchers found that, compared with controls, patients with asthma had significant reductions in CRR, FR, and FEV1, and increases in FENO, EOS, PAI-1, FXIII, and CD (all P<0.001). There was a negative correlation for FR with CD, FXIII, PAI-1, FENO, and EOS, and a positive correlation with FEV1. A positive correlation was seen for FXIII with CD. A negative correlation was seen for CRR with FENO and a positive correlation with FEV1 (all P<0.001). "These novel findings suggest that asthma itself is associated with decreased CRR and reduced fibrinolytic potential resulting from alterations in clot architecture and elevated levels of plasma FXIII and PAI-1," the authors write.

Landslide: Reuters Projects 326 Electoral Votes For Clinton Matt Vespa | October 24, 2016 As we get closer to Election Day, there will be a new flurry of stories showing how Hillary has an 85+percent chance of winning—and that her Electoral College count is going to be a landslide. It’s over, basically—that’s the theme. For Reuters, they’re projecting Clinton to win 326 electoral votes, with a 95 percent chance of winning: In the last week, there has been little movement. Clinton leads Donald Trump in most of the states that Trump would need should he have a chance to win the minimum 270 votes needed to win. According to the project, she has a better than 95 percent chance of winning, if the election was held this week. The mostly likely outcome would be 326 votes for Clinton to 212 for Trump. Trump came off his best debate performance of the campaign Wednesday evening but the polling consensus still showed Clinton winning the third and final face-off on prime-time TV. Trump disputes those findings. And some national polls had the race tightening a wee bit this week though others had Clinton maintaining her solid lead. But the project illustrates that the broader picture remains bleak for Trump with 17 days to go until the Nov. 8 election. Trump did gain ground in South Carolina where his slim lead last week expanded to seven points, moving it into his column from a toss-up. Unfortunately for him, he lost ground in Arizona, which is now too close to call. On one hand, some in the GOP will rejoice—this means the end of Trumpism, the ignominious defeat of the alt-right. Well, I’m not so sure these folks are leaving just yet. Second, Clinton would be president. Why is that a good thing? It’s a nightmare for the country. If this ends up being the end result on Election Day, it will not be without a sense of irony. When Mitt Romney decided to get on the Never Trump train, the billionaire lashed out at him, blaming him for losing a winnable election. In 2016, Reuters’ Electoral College map closely resembles that of 2012 (Romney got 206 electoral votes), and this was yet another winnable election for Republicans that we pissed away thanks for nominating flawed candidates, but I don’t want to get into “I told you so” games—though that’s a point of inevitability post-election I’m afraid. Again, how many epitaphs have we written for this political campaign? Every time Trump looks like he’s about to collapse, he regroups. He survives. It very well could be a drumming by Clinton, but we shall reserve judgment until Election Day. We have polls showing him trailing by four, six, nine, and now twelve points. Some have it at a virtual dead heat (i.e. LA Times), while other have him leading by a point (Investors Business Daily). Now, that doesn’t mean that all is well either. Texas and Arizona are now in the toss-up column, Florida is moving to the Democrats—all of this spell disaster on November 8. If we lose Florida, forget everything else—the jig is up. Even Trump campaign manger Kellyanne Conway said that they’re behind. But the RNC seems to have delved into fantasyland to combat these developments, with Chairman Reince Priebus saying that Trump is going to do better with black voters this cycles than with McCain and Romney, with the added notion that Trump is going to win because “people have had enough.” Yeah, let’s not kid ourselves; Trump is going to do poorly with Hispanics and black voters—and we don’t know if he’s going to win the election. This spin makes the Right look desperate and embodies everything that liberals think about conservatives—that we’re detached from reality. There is one theory that Trump’s campaign seems to be hedging on, which is that there’s a swath of voters who don’t like to be polled, and if a firm contacts them—these voters tell lies to protect themselves. It’s a fear Democratic pollsters have this cycle, that the people they poll, like the one’s saying they’re either voting for or leaning towards Hillary Clinton, are really voting for Trump. It’s our version of the shy Tory theory, in which the 1992 election in the U.K. projected a Labour win, only to end with the Conservatives winning the most votes ever cast in a British election. It’s impossible to gauge, but if this is the case, it shows how embarrassing these two candidates are for voters for either party. Right now, it’s all about stopping Clinton. And 45 percent of Republicans seem pretty dead set on making that happen, as this cohort has said they will not accept the election result that ends in a Trump defeat.

NEWS United Stress of America: Election Causing Stress for Many Americans October 14, 2016Share HealthDay News — The U.S. presidential election has caused stress for more than half of American adults, regardless of party affiliation, according to a survey conducted by the American Psychological Association. Overall, 52% of Americans aged 18 and older said the election is a somewhat or very significant source of stress. That included 55% who align with Democrats and 59% with Republicans. The survey also found that 38% of respondents said political and cultural discussions on social media cause them stress. More than half who use social media said the election is a very or somewhat significant source of stress, compared with 45% of those who don't use social media. Men and women were equally likely to feel stressed by the Trump-Clinton battle, but there were differences between generations. Only 45% of Generation Xers – those born from 1965 to 1980 – reported election stress, while nearly six out of 10 (59%) "Matures" did so, according to the online survey conducted in August. Matures were born pre-1946. In addition, 56% of millennials and half of baby boomers said the election is a very or somewhat significant source of stress.
