I'll start with a touch of cold water. As spectacular as Kamala Harris was last night, there's always room for improvement, that's why a 10.0 is almost impossible to obtain in gymnastics. This one is actually quite simple, but it...
Strange as it might seem, it would be difficult to find an American civilian with more raw power than Taylor Swift. To the extent you're skeptical, wait to see the impact of her disdainful dismantling of the Trump-Vance campaign...
In the run up to the Harris-Trump debate, I wrote an article listing the risk/benefit of a potential candidate handshake following the initial introductions. The article was based on three different possible scenarios and their most likely outcomes. Well, Kamala...

In politics people build whole reputations off getting one thing right (Nate Silver) I have long taken polling with a grain of salt. How big depends. Going back to 2000 that industry underwent something of a crisis of confidence even...
Donald Trump is a brand man which at least partially explains his incessant attempt to nickname all opponents. But like any attempt to brand anything, things get really bad when it fails. His latest nickname for Kamala Harris missed...
Everything is happening everywhere all at once (Griffin the Archanan from MIB3) Well, one way or tonight, roughly ten hours after I've written this VP Kamala Harris and EX-President Donald Trump will have squared off on the debate stage. In...
