    Bobby Jindal won in Louisiana. Its not impossible for a guy like Ramaswamy to get his foot in the door.

    But this isn't even a Bradley Effect. He's polling single digits after a big debate win. Can't even get ahead of Ron DeSanctimonious.

        That's not just brown people. But white people get the "we assume you're christian by default" credits. You don't have to explain that Bill Clinton or Donald Trump are Christians to anybody.

            I can't help but think you get a little in your own head when you're "The Guy". Or even just ancillary to "The Guy". Like, how else could you have gotten here by this litany of historical happy accidents if not for Divine Providence?

            Eric Adams really shines with it. You get that vibe off Mitt Romney as well. I have to assume Obama is at least a bit touched by his own mythology.

              I assume Biden also thinks of himself as The Guy. He might be far more religious than he lets on because it helps him electorally.

              He's such a deluded freak.
