It’s pretty crazy how the cities-only rent unaffordability problem (NY/SF) exploded to the rest of the country during COVID. We do have a national housing shortage, but this can’t be explained by the fundamentals.

My friends in Des Moines have been complaining a lot about price increases so just for fun, I went to see what my first apartment (2008) costs now. I had a 2 bed, 2 bathroom for 400 dollars per month. It is now 2,205.

Yep. And let's be clear: Yglesias was a much-listened to voice in Biden WH & Shor was allowed to oversee a $700 million super-PAC campaiging .

Nobody should take this ass covering seriously.

Devastated to hear that Bela Karolyi died, at 82, disgraced. Sad he’s not around to scream at himself for not sticking the landing.

this part is critical: with a few exceptions, NYC's democratic machines are dead. immigrants, transplants & young people with no interest in the old guard's politics have replaced the old base
county parties/clubs are too busy fighting the left to organize for general elections

My bad, Murkowski served 21 years in the Senate before running for governor and appointing his daughter to the Senate. Also, in his 2006 re-election bid for Governor, his margin of defeat against Sarah Palin was the largest of an incumbent in a GOP primary in American history.

A 58 vote margin out of 300k votes cast.
If you win any election by less than 0.5%, your term should be cut in half.
