A few years ago California instituted a "top 2" primary system, where all candidates from all parties were thrown into a single primary. The top-two vote getters (regardless of party) would go on to the regular election. The theory was that the left/right extremes would move closer to center. That has happened somewhat, but I think it would have been better with a "top 3".

A marketing course once taught me that if there were two hot dog stands on a crowded beach* they would be right next to each other in the middle.  Whereas the public would be best served if they were spaced at the 1/3 and 2/3 points to minimize the distance anyone would have to walk to get a hot dog.

 

In politics, however, the hot dog stands would be at the far ends of the beach, with none in the middle.  Maybe a result of the 2 party system and any moderate candidate getting “primaried”.

 

* crowded beach = a historical reference from the before times

What surprised me the most is how many actually believed an inept moron over an expert trained on this..

Unbelievable

Gino - Deaths are a lagging indicator.  Deaths are still going up while it looks like new cases are starting to go down.  

Robbert -  No offense but that makes zero sense and is counterfactual.  Testing rates are continuing to rise.  

 

Pure speculation but I'd guess more dumb asses are starting to catch on and are wearing their masks now.
