    The Inconstant Bond, Part 2.

    I have only read one Bond book, Casino Royale when I was like 13, though can't really remember much. I can't remember Bond expressing much if any politics but I can imagine him being a generic 50s centrist, lots of current Mi6 agents in 2023 would I imagine have similar views as they are quite...

    WI Roosevelt does not become NY governor in '28?

    Just added a few bits from the Power Broker. Moses was arguably Smith's closest friend espically after he left office, when Al was governor FDR would hang out with Moses so he could get to Smith. I can defo see Moses trying to crown Moses for a role either Governor or Mayor, even his endorsement...

    WI Roosevelt does not become NY governor in '28?

    Reading the Power Broker, it did appear that Smith wanted to work Moses in a position of power, Moses was a Republican but changed his affiliation in 1928 for Smith. I could see a scenario where Smith helps Moses get elected. He ran a terrible campaign in 1936 and once he gets elected he...

    AHC and WI: Abortion Remains a Catholic Issue

    Abortion was historically just a Catholic Issue and it was only after Roe vs Wade that Evangelical Protestants got more involved or at least what's I've read. Indeed these Protestants as a notable voting block seemed to show up first appear in 1976 when they voted for Carter then later for the...

    Ming Campbell in 2010

    Random thought I was mulling over. How well do the Lib Dems do under Ming Campbell in 2010 if he survived. He seemed to generate more media attention in his brief tenure then Clegg did before the debates that Parliament. I remember Cable getting more attention with Mr Bean quip that Parliament...

    Spain in the Axis: what next?

    Don't see why Britain would invade Portuguese colonies, when Spain in Axis probably forces Lisbon to look at more formal relationship with the Allies

    Spain in the Axis: what next?

    If the allies did land in Spain as the new soft underbelly, I could see Portugal joining the Allies after getting a blank cheque of sorts from Washington, which would be interesting for Portuguese development postwar
