Exploring issues that affect leaders in the U. S. And around the globe. Win and sort of a good win is sometimes 10,000 votes. I want to put something up here. In 2006, 14 seats that democrats picked up were decided by 10,000 votes or less. In 2010, 16 seats that the republicans picked up were decided by 10,000 votes or less.

that s fascinating. just to play this out, let s say judge merchan says the allegation by e. jean carroll that he sexually assaulted her in a dressing room was found more likely than not by a civil jury in new york. let s say the judge were to say you can t bring that up, okay? it s too prejudicial. if you are on the stand and he just was riffing inside like that e. jean carroll lady like i ve never seen her before. as soon as he said that, then you could say something right? yes because you feel like the door has been opened but then everybody at the prosecution table would probably jump up and asked to approach and then there would be a sidebar conversation because they would not simply jump in and start asking these questions and then the judge would have to rule whether he has indeed opened the door. would you come to anticipate that he would take the stand here?
