Carville: Repeal The Steal!

July 21, 2025

If you missed it:  Repeal The Steal.

Now Carville bolsters the case — and boils it down to just one word.  Something on which the most and least liberal Democrats can unite around.



NOOM

As previously noted, this is not a stock symbol — though if it were, I’d be a buyer.  It’s the “fitness” app I loaded onto my phone when I weighed 160 five weeks ago.  I treat it like the other games I play on my phone.  Only, this one requires a $10 digital scale (which works great) . . . logging in everything I eat (which I never thought I’d ever bother to do) . . . and logging my exercise (which is easy, because I don’t do as much as I should and it logs my “steps” automatically).

The point is: I’ve made it a game, I like games, and I like to win.

Guess who’s now 154 and headed lower.

I tell you this not to brag, but because I want you to live forever, too.  I need you.

[Hint: the first few days, between getting used to the app’s navigation and not seeing any real progress, you may be tempted to quit.  But once you get in the groove and see progress, it has to work — it’s just math.  Calories in, calories out.  Plus, it’s fun annoying people.  Annoying is sort of my specialty.  “Oh, that looks amazing,” I say as Tim serves us all the salmon he’s slaved over making.  “How much does it weigh?”



I may be taking this week off, so I’m scheduling some posts in advance.  If a volcano erupts plunging the earth into darkness and I fail to blame it on Trump, or to comment in some other way, it’s because I was someplace without Internet access.
