@RalstonReports A- rating pollster on 538. They can't be discounted. Democratic voters have long been thought of as not caring as much about who is on the Supreme Court as Republicans. RPG's death may have awoken them to the danger that many rights may be curtailed under a conservative dominated "handmaid's tale" type Supreme Court. NEW: Democratic donors have now given more than $46 million to candidates and causes in the hours since Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away — a breathtaking sum of money in so short a timespan. A Republican pollster just told me that this court fight could motivate young women to turn out this year. "They may not vote for Biden, but they will vote for Ruth." @brianschatz https://t.co/MZvet8IAen feels the Democrats have 4 options. WH aide confirms to NYT there’s no time on Senate calendar for confirmation before election |
Awesome.
Mind you, it’s not The Hobbit. It’s more “History of Middle Earth during the Pre-War-of-the-Ring late Third Age”. But that’s cool too.
Well.. when you turn it into a trilogy, and are borrowing from the LOTR appendices, as Jackson is doing, what can you expect 😉 I don’t mind either; all those events like Gandalf et al. fighting the Necromancer did happen while Bilbo and company were proceeding towards Erebor. Nice to see them detailed and fleshed out (even if he doesnt quite follow the literal storyline of the book).
