The thirty-year moving average mean for NYC from July 10 to August 10, roughly, was 77° in the 1960's (covering the 1930's, 1940's and 1950's). The thirty-year moving average mean for NYC from July 10 to August 10, roughly, is 77° in the current decade (covering the 1980's, 1990's and the "double-oughts" or 2000-2009).
The thirty-year moving average mean for NYC for most of January, was 32 or 33° in the 1960's (covering the 1930's, 1940's and 1950's). The thirty-year moving average mean for NYC for most of January, roughly, is 32° or 33° in the current decade (covering the 1980's, 1990's and the "double-oughts" or 2000-2009).
Not much change. And actual temperatures are a reality check for a so-called "global" trend.
Bernie Sanders is not going down quietly, as he has taken the lead in New Hampshire, according to the latest Franklin Pierce University-Boston Herald poll. Sanders leads with 29%, followed by Biden at 21% and Warren at 16%.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) leads the Democratic presidential field among New Hampshire primary voters in a Franklin Pierce University-Boston Herald poll released Wednesday. Sanders leads among likely Granite State primary voters with 29 percent, according to the survey, followed by former Vice President Joe Biden with 21 percent and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) with 17 percent.
The poll shows a wide gap between the three leading candidates and the rest of the field, with Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) in fourth place with 6 percent, followed by businessman Andrew Yang with 5 percent and South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg with 4 percent.
Of course all these polls are too early to be determinitive, but the degree of support that Sanders is continuing to get is interesting.
If Biden loses any of the first four states, that will have the effect as blood in the water in a shark infested region. Sanders winning in New Hampshire will whip up the 'Bernie Bros' into an absolute tizzy.
REP. TULSI GABBARD: In the first [Democratic presidential primary] debate, I was the most Googled candidate of the night, when all of a sudden right at the peak of that time when people were paying attention, our account was suspended.
DAVE RUBIN: So you couldn't run ads?
TULSI GABBARD: People weren't seeing the ads that we wanted them to see is the bottom line.
And then once that peak period passed, our account was magically re-enstated. We still have not gotten any kind of meaningful, or even an attempt to provide a satisfactory explanation for it. Which just points to the need for change. We filed this lawsuit not just because of what happened there, but because of the kind of power Google has as this giant tech monopoly to interfere in our public discourse and really how they can impact our fair elections...
We need to be able to protect the rights and freedoms of the American people, and we have such a big tech monopoly with the power to provide undue influence, through their algorithms, as well as suppressing peoples' freedom of speech...
If this can be done to me as a member of Congress running for the highest office in the land, it can be done to anyone running for any office in this country and it can be done to any individual in this country.
She is apparently filing a lawsuit against Google. I hope she wins.
How does adding Warren & Bernie's polling numbers together mean anything? If one or the other dropped out you don't know who their followers would break for? PS John Kass the author of that is a lifelong Republican so I would take his suggestions for what Democrats should or shouldn't do with a grain of salt.
Obviously, because Warren and Bernie are sharing the far-left lane, while Biden is alone in the center lane. Warren and Bernie are splitting the far-left vote. That's why it makes sense to add their totals, to see what happens if the split is no more.
You may be right about Kass, but you can find similar articles from other sources. These murmurs can be expected to increase as we get closer to the primaries, now less than 4 months away.
As part of an "art" exhibit, twice failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton decided it was a good idea to sit at a fake Oval Office Resolute Desk and read her emails for more than an hour. She also publicized the stunt.
Though months remain before the first 2020 Democratic presidential primary contest, Karl Rove argued only three candidates have a shot at winning the nomination: Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, and Bernie Sanders.
“Yes, scads of other Democrats remain in the race, all saying they’re in it to win it. But with summer gone, no other candidate has made significant inroads. It’s unlikely that any of them has a real chance to be the nominee,” the former adviser to President George W. Bush wrote in the Wall Street Journal.
Andrew Yang and Ted Cruz are scheduled to play each other in a charity basketball game.
This is not only good for the charity, but it is great politics for both men, especially Andrew Yang, who is struggling to gain traction in the Democrat presidential contest. Yang is struggling to become known and this should help with that - and not only with the usual die-hard echo chamber cacooned leftist crowd. Doing this with Ted Cruz will provide him an opportunity to reach out to a lot of people who might never watch a Democrat presidential primary debate.
Sen. Ted Cruz and presidential contender Andrew Yang have challenged each other to a game of basketball with the loser giving money to charity. The challenge started when Pat Ward, a Fox News producer, urged the pair on Twitter to play a game of one-on-one basketball.
Cruz, 48, responded that he did not play with candidates who are polling less than 5%. Yang quickly pointed out that he had reached 5% in a poll.
"Bring it. 4 on 4, you plus three of your paid staffers vs me and three of my paid staffers (no outside ringers)," Cruz responded to Yang's tweet. "Say, this Friday afternoon in Houston? The loser gives $5k to the (non-political) charity of the winner’s choice? Game?"
"Let’s play one-on-one. Give the fans a show," Yang said.
"Hmm. You’re taller than I am. From the video, you’re probably a better shot. And, I’ve seen you dunking (on an 8-foot rim). Altogether, pretty strong. So ... JUST BRING IT," the Texas Republican said.
Marianne Williamson has realized that people on the left are nastier to her than people on the right. And of course Williamson is hardly a righty herself.
Marianne Williamson appeared last week on Sinclair’s America This Week with Eric Bolling and criticized Democrats for having “condescending attitudes” about people of faith. That was apparently not the only criticism she had of the left. Bolling this week shared a hot mic moment from right after that interview — defending the decision to do so — in which Williamson was a little more direct
“What does it say that Fox News is nicer to me than the lefties are? What does it say that the conservatives are nicer to me?… It’s such a bizarre world.” She also said, “I didn’t think the left was as mean as the right, they are.”
Well, welcome to the real world, Marianne! Leftists of the activist variety are aggressively nasty, and the only people on Earth who even come close to comparing to them on that score are the radical Islamic terrorist groups.
