Kind of genius, naming a bill the "inflation reduction act..."

And now being able to label every single republican who voted against it as "against reducing inflation." Because, frankly, they are.

Nice job, Democrats!

Rubio criticizes Dems for taking out the loophole for greedy billionaires or some crap

Of course he has made no such proposal of his own to close the loopholes. He couldn't say half the lies he uttered with a straight face.

Gas prices down over a dollar?

This means we will still be seeing gas stations vandalized with the "I did this" stickers, right?

On edit: Maybe we should all start buying those stickers before they stop being sold, and post them on gas stations when prices drop another dollar

Will pollsters adjust their likely voter models based on yesterday's election?

Clearly turnout cannot be expected to be the same levels as a normal midterm. Data for progress' last LV poll still seems like it might have a poor LV model. Democrats seem to be pretty solid on all of the RV polls taken, but LVs is where they struggle the most. Will do you think those models will change before the November election?

I think they were also substantially off in 2020 when they seemed to assume larger turnout for Democrats than actually as the case.

Could the Kansas vote mean Abbott loses in November??

The polls show it might be pretty close already. If they are underestimating Dem turnout, could we see Beto take the governorship?
