With the election less than two weeks away, it's time to start thinking about what a post election party might look like. For that, we call on The Atlantic's David Frum to help us sort it all out. Also, we debate why the seemingly endless Wikileaks email stories don't get more traction in the media, a selection of posts from Ricochet's Member Feed, and that now infamous Megan Kelly-Newt Gingrich confrontation. Just two more weeks...

    Flagship,

    The scale of the corruption was Bernie Madoff league. Of course, because it destroyed the credibility of the United States Government itself, this corruption was much worse than anything Madoff did.

    I have said it before but I'll say it again just for the Flagship Podcast.

    THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS THE PARTY OF NO SHAME.

    Regards,

    Jim

    I just want to go on record that in the past two days two people I respect each made a comment similar to comments I made here on Ricochet LONG before Trump got the nomination.

    1. Scott Adams: people are feeling bullied by the Federal government and see Trump as "their" bully
    2. David Frum: The GOP needs to figure out what issues make Trump attractive to Trump supporters and address them

    Somehow, hearing Peter say that the ballots have lain on the table for however long sounds perfectly normal. I don't know that I've ever heard any living person actually say "have lain" aside from my mother teaching me grammar as a kid.
