Man who assaulted Pelosi's husband with hammer was looking for House speaker, source says
OMFG!!! f'ing MAGA bastards.
Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was attacked with a hammer at the couples home in San Francisco by a male assailant early Friday morning, law enforcement sources tell CNN.
The assailant who attacked Paul Pelosi was searching for the speaker of the House, according to a source briefed on the attack. The intruder confronted the speakers husband in their San Francisco home shouting Where is Nancy, where is Nancy? according to the source.
Pelosi, 82, was hospitalized but is expected to make a full recovery, the Democratic speakers office said in a statement.

Just looked at a taped version of today's Morning Joe. The first topic was Oz's answer on abortion.
It is game over for Oz IMHO. Jim Messina said the take-away from last night would be the abortion should be between a woman, her doctor and I never thought he had much of a chance but that answer? Also, it was noted that Fetterman struggled but the panel agreed that the debate changed nothing...if you were for a candidate before you still are for that candidate. That is what I think. However, I do believe that Fetterman did what he had to last night. Roe your vote.

Democrats close the enthusiasm gap as Biden improves his standing with base voters
I am tired of all the negative posts from the usual suspects...here is some good news...Enjoy. I still say we keep the House and the Senate...I really think we have a good chance...
Despite the fact that voters from the party out of power usually steamroll midterm elections, Democratic voters are almost equally as engaged this cycle as Republican voters. At the same time, President Joe Biden has improved his standing among key Democratic voting blocs over the past year, according to the final Daily Kos/Civiqs survey of the 2022 cycle.
Among registered voters, 84% said they would "definitely" vote this year, including 83% of Democrats, 89% of Republicans, and 80% of independents.
For Democrats, that's a vast improvement from reports earlier this year suggesting Republicans had a double-digit voter intensity advantage approaching 20 points in some polling.
But the Civiqs survey also revealed that Democratic voters increasingly believe President Biden is doing a better job of delivering on his campaign promises and improving their lives in the process. The survey revisited several questions Civiqs had posed to voters in previous polls, and Democratic respondentsparticularly among people of colorhave warmed to Biden over the past year.
