It is a great day for Michigan Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers, as a result of the Democrats have shot themselves in the foot.
With El-Sayed’s nomination, a Democratic Senate seat is more likely to flip, making a Democratic takeover of the majority all however unimaginable. Michigan isn’t Massachusetts or California — it’s a swing state. General election voters embody giant numbers of independents. Many will vote for Rogers or keep home.

The WNBA appears to have mastered the effective artwork of capturing itself in the foot. A league that struggled for many years to draw mainstream consideration all of the sudden discovered itself having fun with hovering TV scores, larger salaries and unprecedented public curiosity. Instead of absolutely embracing the second, too many gamers project petty jealousy. The league appears decided to cling to its underdog id simply because it lastly has a likelihood to outgrow it.
Professional sports activities exist to entertain prospects. If the WNBA desires to be handled as a main league, it must act like one. This newest foray into gender politics received’t help.
