Centrists...
This is the party that anyone can run as a president candidate. Independent, Republican, lawyer of Stormy, etc. All what this party wants is to beat the Republican President.
It is not about anything else, not the economy, not immigration, not healthcare, and not education. We want it and we want it badly. Just a thought.

Bloom-Berg...
All the gold in Fort Knox could not get Michael Bloomberg elected president. There is a simple reason for this, the man’s entire raison d’etre is an anti-fun agenda that slowly sucks the joy out of life and replaces it with cogs turning wheels in the factory of progress.
Michael Bloomberg knows that gun-grabbing, pretty boy Beto is out of the race, there is nobody running in the repeal the Second Amendment lane.
Michael Bloomberg has a solid legacy, and he’s a better retail politician than most people outside New York would know.
The Republican Michael Bloomberg of 2002 would be a compelling and potentially significant entry into the 2020 Democratic primary. The “Hey, I’m a Democrat!” Michael Bloomberg of 2019, not so much.
You kind of have to feel bad for the Democratic primary. It dutifully holds its town halls and debates, but the other network has the Game of Thrones impeachment inquiry that sucks up all the ratings.
The frustrating thing about Bloomberg is that he really is an effective leader and manager. He did some wonderful things in the Earth’s capital. But he will show what the democrats is all about, and for that he will destroy all the democratic outrages claims as false. Just a thought.
Cleavage...
While no one can predict how long Trump remains in the Oval Office, it's safe to say his successor will face a challenge unlike any other in the modern era.
As the country careens towards impeachment, the US faces a pivotal moment in history.
Even if the Republican-controlled Senate does not vote to convict and remove the President, the proceedings will inevitably stretch our country's political divide into a gaping chasm in ways we have not seen for generations.
What’s more troubling is the willingness of political actors to exploit every opportunity to gain an advantage even if it destroys democratic norms.
A division within the population marked by conflict about the foundations of the governing system itself in the American case, our constitutional democracy.
In societies facing a regime cleavage, a growing number of citizens and officials believe that norms, institutions and laws may be ignored, subverted or replaced.

Stalled...
In recent years, expectant parents have gone to extreme lengths to create splashy, Instagrammable moments to announce the sex of their child. Some of the celebrations, however, have ended in calamity: a 45,000-acre forest fire, a flaming car, a deadly explosion.
A plane crash could be added to that list, according to a preliminary report from the National Transportation Safety Board filed this week.
A crop-dusting plane that dumped hundreds of gallons of pink water over a field in Turkey, Texas, about 300 miles northwest of Dallas, crashed to the ground in early September. No major injuries were reported.
The pilot, Raj Horan, had been “conducting a gender reveal flight for a friend” when, after releasing about 350 gallons of water, the single-seat plane “got too slow” and stalled, records show.
