Are You Lonesome Tonight? By Stephen Moore
"Are you lonesome tonight? / Do you miss me tonight? / Are you sorry we drifted apart? / Does your memory stray to a brighter, sunny day?" -- Elvis Presley
Loneliness is such a sad affair, as the saying goes, and our politicians have succeeded in turning America into a lonely nation by decree. We are going on four months now of lock-ins, business shutdowns and few, if any, social gatherings. What this is doing to the nation's psyche has been devastating.

Like Trump, Biden Would Be a Right-Wing President By Ted Rall
What would President Joe Biden do? His supporters are making it hard to read the tealeaves.
They say he'd appoint a great Cabinet. But he won't tell us who would be in it.

Trump Opponents' Worst Traits Are Trump's Fault By Michael Barone
You could say it's all Donald Trump's fault. His bad qualities -- his carelessness about facts, his obstinance about admitting error, his contempt for others' views -- have turned out to be contagious, to the point that you could argue they're more damaging to his opponents than to him.

Is America Up for a Naval War with China? By Patrick J. Buchanan
Is the U.S., preoccupied with a pandemic and a depression that medical crisis created, prepared for a collision with China over Beijing's claims to the rocks, reefs and resources of the South China Sea?

The Future Shape of the Senate By Louis Jacobson
How 2020 sets up 2022 and 2024.
KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE
— The Constitution divides the Senate into three “classes” that face the voters on six-year cycles. Under today’s political dynamics, the class that faced the voters in 2018 was favorable to the Republicans, while the class that faces the voters in 2020 is favorable to the Democrats.
— What about the class that faces the voters in 2022? Our analysis shows that this class is also favorable to the Democrats.
— If the Democrats manage to seize the Senate majority in 2020, the relatively pro-Democratic map in 2022 could insulate the party somewhat if Joe Biden is elected president and a midterm backlash benefiting the GOP emerges.
— The Democrats will need to run up the score in the Senate in both 2020 and 2022 if they are going to keep the majority past the 2024 elections, when the Republicans benefit from an extremely favorable map for their party.

Mask Mandates Are a Public Health Menace By Michelle Malkin
Jared Polis, the Democratic governor of Colorado, thinks those of us who oppose scientifically dubious, constitutionally suspect and dangerously overbroad face mask mandates are "selfish bastards."

Too Much Faith in Models By John Stossel
Between 2 million and 3 million Americans will die!
That was the prediction from "experts" at London's Imperial College when COVID-19 began. They did also say if there was "social distancing of the whole population," the death toll could be cut in half, but 1.1 million to 1.46 million Americans would still die by this summer.

The Electoral College: The Fringe of the Map Expands By Kyle Kondik
If Trump’s numbers don’t improve, some surprising states could come into play.
KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE
— President Trump’s position has been perilously weak for a month and a half.
— With Joe Biden’s national lead around eight to 10 points, there is a possibility that he could compete for some usually Republican states.
— We are moving seven states from Safe Republican to Likely Republican.
— Our current ratings represent something of a hedge between a Trump comeback and Biden maintaining or expanding his large national lead.
— We also are moving the Missouri gubernatorial race from Likely Republican to Leans Republican.

Will the Left Kill America's Energy Dominance? By Stephen Moore
If the "liberal" green movement had the political power during earlier periods of our nation's history that it has now, we would not have built the railroads. Also, there would be no interstate highway system, and the electric grid system that powers our country would be disconnected and shattered.

On Foreign Policy, Biden Is Worse Than Trump By Ted Rall
President Donald Trump is terrible. Joe Biden is just as bad. In some ways, the Democrat is worse.

NeverTrumpers Turn Their Backs On A Lifetime of Conservatism By Brian C. Joondeph
The so-called NeverTrumpers opposed Donald Trump’s Republican Party nomination in 2016 because they believed he was unfit for the presidency. He had not paid his dues as a senator or governor. He wasn’t part of the Republican in-crowd. He was Caddyshack character Al Czervik, played by Rodney Dangerfield, a skunk at the GOP’s country club garden party.

States of Play: Georgia By J. Miles Coleman and Niles Francis
Once-dominant Democrats need formerly Republican suburbs to come through for them in 2020.
KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE
— Over the last few decades, Georgia has gone from a swing state to reliably GOP. But it’s now looking like a genuinely competitive state again.
— Democrats have made major inroads in both urban Atlanta and its suburbs, but their gains have been somewhat blunted by the sharp Republican trend in other parts of the state.
— In the state’s regular Senate election this year, we’re downgrading Sen. David Perdue’s chances. We now have both Georgia’s seats rated as Leans Republican.
