This whole thing with Biden might
be a ruse to slip Hillary in there.
Get a senile Biden as the presumptive
nominee and Hillary has a clear path
when he drops out.


Cuomo. Not Hillary.

Nobody wants Cuomo, not even Cuomo.
He's ugly and boring. Get real. Face it,
the Dems have an empty bench. No
Obama's anywhere to get excited about.

Heterosexual male here, but for 62 I think Cuomo is certainly not ugly. As far as boring, I'm not sure what that means? That no women are accusing him of rape or assault?

I made a post years ago about him. He crushed the unions in NYS. Limited pensions severely down the road. When the NYS Senate was Republican he still got bills passed, budgets done on time. Too long to explain, but the NYS Senate could have been Democratic for years if Cuomo wanted it to be. But I think he was content to let it stay Republican so he could build his Presidential resume as 'someone who can work across the aisle'.

You know I am steadfastly against many (most) of Cuomo's policies and ideas.

But we will have to agree to disagree about how he would come across as a political candidate running for President.

If he gets the nomination I'd bet on him crushing Trump. CRUSHING. Time to go golfing!

Our golf courses opened back up yesterday. Sadly I didn't get to partake as my wife had a medical procedure. I have a 6:30am tee time tomorrow. We always book the earliest tee time available. It is usually between 5:30am and 7am.

Welp, looks like I ain't visiting Vegas anytime soon.

Wow
I never ever get up early for golf
Typically a 1pm tee time for me. Cheaper
I was just at a course Fri.
It was packed. Even the range was packed
Golf courses in FL these days making good money as long as they have the carts since its one per cart

I used to be a 6am golfer. Now 11am is perfect. Retirement has done that to me. I golfed with a friend who can work remotely. He and his wife are driving down to Florida tomorrow. Starting Monday we have a week of weather in the 40's. He's had enough.
I only paid $25 today. No need to wait for the later cheaper time here....

Only? I quit golfing because
the prices got insane. I used
to pay $9 for 18 holes in the
early 80's. Then it went up and
up and I quit. Now it's $45
for 18. Screw that.

I think golf compares favorably to other leisure activities. A fraction of a day at Disneyworld. Less than a ticket to a Bills game. I feel I can go up to $60 and not feel I'm being ripped off. This February went to San Juan, PR. Did play one round on a 'resort course' and 'only' paid $150 because we had some discount. Sister course was $300. Didn't play that one. Did find 2 public courses in the $40 range. I think if you lived in PR the public courses were even cheaper.
I'm playing later today.... looking at weather forecast last time for quite a while....
