They voted to rehire Matt Doherty because they found Hubert's tenure to date to be unsatisfactory, only with much more dire, real world consequences. FAFO indeed.

Where Trump Gained and Harris Lost in New York
In every neighborhood in New York City, from Red Hook in Brooklyn to Riverdale in the Bronx, Vice President Kamala Harris received markedly fewer votes than Joseph R. Biden, Jr., did in 2020, while in most neighborhoods, Donald J. Trump notched modest increases.
Trump Gained 95,000 Votes in New York City. Democrats Lost Half a Million.

I'm a value shopper with Scotch and for the money, I still drink more Black Label JW than anything. Or course, I'm a fan of blended.
I used to drink quite a bit of Famous Grouse so I'm not averse to blended. It just got to the point where the price points on excellent bourbon were better than on good blended scotch and I made the switch. I'll drink almost any decent whiskey although ,for some reason, I pay a much heavier price for drinking Irish the next day.

Famous Grouse and JW Black are both fine choices (fine as in good, not fine as in OK in a pinch - speaking of pinch, Dimple Pinch is a nice blended scotch too) but I drink so little scotch that when I do drink it, I'm almost always drinking an Islay single malt. Just love the flavor. I can't drink bourbon at all. I mean, I can, but I don't. I'm sure there are some out there that might change my mind, but in my experience I just can't tell much if any difference b/w bourbons. The flavor profile of all of them, to me, can be summed up as "hot." I guess there's a reason they call it fire water. But you can line up a dozen different scotches and each one will have a pretty unique flavor profile. I enjoy the variety...

What are your thought on Oban's? Was in Oban last spring to catch a ferry and I tried an 18 year old just before hoping on, and it was an outstanding single malt. Horrible whether that morning and it was just perfect right after lunch.
I've had it a time or two and thought it was good but nothing made me want to buy it ahead of a dozen others.

What a coincidence. I started when I was 10 or so years old.

Take the whisky talk to the whisky thread please.
Not a good trend in California. I understand, Democrats under performed in New York House Districts.
Guess this thread proves there has been a red shift. Democrats will have to address this. The 2026 election will be about retaking the House rather then the Senate. Not sure how Democrats can refresh the Party's image when dealing with gerrymandered district factors.

If Trump does what we think he will do, the Senate will flip so long as elections are free and fair.
LOL, well afraid you are correct that Trump will do what we think he will do. Guess I didn't factor that one.
Just last time I looked, looked like slim pickings on potential Senate pickups. And pretty sure Georgia will flip back to the GOP.
