I don’t see how Biden can win Pennsylvania. There are 1 million votes outstanding, and he is down by 700,000.

If these are heavily Philly, it is doable. Detroit votes 90% Dem.

That could happen, but those have to be almost exclusively Philly. But it's all academic. We don't have to play the FL in this elections. You and WI have already decided it.

WI, MI, AZ and NV give Biden exactly 270, with the Trump campaign calling for a recount in WI. Sure would be nice to eek out a win in PA to make that irrelevant.

I’m rubbing my eyes. I still can’t believe the way this worked out. We now have a socially liberal/fiscally tax friendly government in place. Holy shit.

As long as the Rs hold the Senate in midterms, we finally get with the silent majority of the country wants. The crazy social conservatives and tea party people are basically exiled, and the progressives can’t push Biden, because he is handcuffed by a Republican Senate. And the Trump tax cuts run through 2025.

The way you pretend to care about nothing and then occasionally admit to actually having views and preferences is maddening. I think we all mostly understand that you are full of sh*t when you pretend not to have views, but still.
