Where’d we go? Sleepyhead David Waldman clocked in late yesterday and Greg Dworkin’s Raft O’ Stories went adrift. The good news is, David’s back on schedule, and Greg has a XL boatload of polls and punditry for us today.   About those polls… Half of the world will be going to some sort of poll this year. So, a million polling prognosticators are out there with differing methodologies and rates of success. All of them had better make certain that they are paid upfront, and take their phone off the hook after their elections. Low turnout propensity young voters don’t know, don’t care, and don’t feel like it right now, maybe check them later? Nikki Haley is working tirelessly to spend a hundred million or so, specifically to lose the least to Donald Trump.   This makes no sense, unless you suppose that Nikki has read the Constitution. Donald Trump’s lawyers argue that Donald knows that Joe Biden is not president, and everyone else knows that Trump is not president, so why involve the courts? Right about now Republicans are finding the republican aspect of government inconvenient, at least the 14th ammendment.   Trump isn’t getting out of his E. Jean Carroll rape defamation civil trial. Rape nor defamation is that big a deal to his white evangelical base anyhow.   In Kentucky, former Kentucky clerk Kim Davis, who refused to grant a gay couple a marriage license has been ordered to pay an additional $260,104, which is more than she spends on Aqua Net in a year.   Multiple state Capitols have been evacuated due to mass-emailed bomb threats. It is presently much more dangerous to attend a public school.   Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, and David Copperfield can’t magically escape from their past with Jeff Epstein. Alan Dershowitz thinks he’s Houdini though.
