I can’t believe our rights are going to be determined by a dude who thinks Morton’s is a good steakhouse appointed by someone who eats steak well done.
It’s the Applebees of steakhouses.
Ease of voting is *definitely* good, but that's why I'd like to lower the temperature of the partisan stakes.
Republicans control most state legislatures, so convincing them that it's *not* electoral suicide to make voting convenient is important.

Here is a more interesting debate than "popularism."
I think most of the Dem ecosystem thinks the real campaign — where you need to be smart, tough-minded, and disciplined — is what happens in campaign ads. I think that's wrong, and ads are marginal compared to your free comms.
I think there's relatively little actual disagreement about what kind of character it makes sense to play in ads, but a lot of genuine disagreement about whether it's helpful or useful to play that same character in TV hits, on social media, in legislative strategy, etc.
I used to think comedians running for office was a bad idea, but then Zelensky came along, so...why the hell not.
