headline, but only one of many, no credibility to destroy. If the NYT ever dumps him, his services should have earned him a place on the WSJ opinion page. If not something more lucrative.

Thanks for sharing Nate's glee. I don't read Stephens so I appreciate the chance to belatedly appreciate his humiliation.

how 6.5 million more people voted for Dems in the House. Republicans can thank their lucky stars they have gerrymandering and voter suppression. Just think what Democrats would have done in a fair election.

With control of states, democratic office holders can make voting fairer, legal and more convenient for every citizen. Vote fraud is not taking place, republicans have lied about that for years, that must be stopped.
