They certainly werent impressed, but I guess its gonna take more than one bombed debate to convince them that its a problem a billion dollars cant fix. i think they basically just think Joe has been botching a race he should have been easily commanding and its gonna take some evidence to convince them that he can still win. They vote on ST though, so Ive just gotta hope that he wins SC and that thatll be enough (probably would be for my dad but maybe not my mom). --- Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Challenge! <cite>LordoftheMorons posted [p:934818402] in Politics C...
