That's cool, but it's hard for me to rationalize the visual with the "We're not Going Back" slogan.

It definitely was.  Obama won the Driftless Area (and our neighboring WI and MN counties too) both times.

The farm crisis in the 80's made a lot of farmers hate Reagan and Republicans.  These were the guys my grandpa's age (my grandpa is a 90 year old Trump loathing yellow dog Democrat).  Their sons all did really well farming and became Republicans as a result (my old man being a rare exception).  Most of the old Carter Democrat farmers have died out, and I think that was a part of Trump's rise as Boomer and old Gen X rural guys became hardcore Trumpers.

I also think that low income/low education white people (IE white trash - I can say it because I live amongst them) didn't care about politics before Trump, and they turned out in a big way.  They're losing interest again as he's losing steam, and his win never really changed their lives.  Combine that with women overwhelmingly flipping to Harris and I can see how Iowa is making this political shift with different demographics than we saw in the past.

One side of my family was big Farmers Union/Co-op people so they have always been pretty blue. The slide to mega co-ops hurt a lot of engagement at the local level because those local board members would work their way up to other offices.

A good buddy of mine is tight with the writer John Alter.  Alter told him he's "nauseously optimistic"  about tomorrow.

Instagram squirrel used to promote its possessor's gay only fans got swatted, then tested for rabies because it was coming right for us, and now it's a thing because this is the dumbest timeline

Wait the guy has an onlyfans? I thought it was just a dumb squirrel. Just googled the guy and he’s hot af. Now I’m outraged and will need to google more of his videos for, uh, solidarity

It's not just abortion.  Those women remember when they couldn't get a credit card because they were women.

Yeah, as long as Harris wins North Carolina by at least two votes, I’’ll still wish my ex was a flood statistic.

Final Sabato Crystal Ball - 

276 Harris (MI, PA, WI, NV)
262 Trump (GA, NC, AZ)

276-262 was what the models were coalescing towards about 2 weeks ago.

Between the abortion issue, old women breaking for Harris and Puerto Rico-gate, I think Florida is in play.

We've been following the Kansas playbook, just a decade after the fact.  Kansas is the most similar state to Iowa, IMO, so I find that kind of humorous in the "laughing because I have no other choice" sort of way.

And can confirm on OK.  My cousin's wife is a teacher in Tulsa, and she's ready to burn everything down.

How does one go about sussing out the differences between Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, and Indiana?

The one thing I think people forget about Iowa is it has always had a bit of a different culture to the rest of the area. They had the whole prairie socialism thing and have had an independent streak. Overall conservative, but unique in some ways.

Texas Dems were a unique blend of non-bleeding heart liberalism and non-punitive conservatism.

When this place was different there was, I believe from my suburban white boy perspective, a sense that you should be handling your own business and leaving me alone. But, if someone was in real bind, hands would be happily extended. Well, between white people for the most part, I suppose.

We're just a couple of decades from completely transitioning to Anywhere USA NAZI Germany.

If Florida goes for Harris, then I'll ask the football gods for only a three-touchdown win over the Gators on Saturday.  It's the least Sark could do.

I am grateful that Selzer’s poll has afforded me enough hopium to not feel stressed since its release. I figure the worst case outcome will suck just as bad; at least there are a few days without gloom and doom.

I was proud our youngest went with us to cast her first vote, and that the oldest drove to San Marcos, from San Antonio, to vote in her second presidential election.

I need to be more mindful of wearing the Harris/Walz cap. Got my blood drawn today, and either I unlucked into the world’s shittiest phlebotomist, or the hat pissed her off.

Well they call them Runza's in Nebraska, and Bierocks in Kansas. Iowa has bullshit speed limits, while Nebraska and Kansas are much more reasonable. Nebraska has better gravel roads, but shitty black tops, while Kansas is the opposite. Nebraska and Iowa are much harder drinkers in aggregate.

I only recently learned that women couldn't get a bank account without a man co-signing until like the 1980s.  That is fucking insane.
