Round 2 of MARCH MADNESS about to hit the Sierras this week....
An anonymous Pennsylvania GOP strategist told The Washington Examiner they had a very specific complaint about Saccone: His moustache was disgusting.
″It’s a porn stache,” the strategist said.
Good stuff out of PA-18...I guess $10MM , steel tariffs, and a visit from Beavis Trump JR...didn't help... |

Hard to believe. And even more in the forecast for next week. And 9 days of skiing over Spring break coming up!
CB, yes, 23 goes to the upper mountain. Most take the upper gondola instead which is nice on cold days but more often comes with long lines and a flat stretch at the end of the run.
I agree, Summers are great up there, too. I'm always amazed at the Alpine beauty when you are basically surrounded by desert climate. The hot springs last September had an unexpected 70's flower power influence. Mammoth also has a huge mountain bike operation that I know nothing about.
As for the vertical, well, I guess it's like when friends showed me their Strava two years ago. Before that, I was just biking along to get in shape, happily, never paying attention to time...
mat-ty, like I said, I was very surprised to see my chairlift included on that list. Certainly looking forward to skiing Utah, Wy and my latest find, Silverton Co. |

I think that chair at Mammoth may have been brand new the last time I skied there. I have a house in Silverton. That mountain is awesome! Used to ski that terrain before the area was established. Carefully. Slide danger is ridiculous.
Even Boggsman couldn't pull 30 k on that mountain. |

Zero chance....its not easy to navigate and the crowds are tough....I love the terrain, but hate the set-up....I'd rather park my car on 395 and put the skins on....I can get 12,000 verts for free...... |

Lamb was smart and distanced himself from the current progressive left. Pro life, military guy, middle of the road on guns and more.
Dems are fired up and have all the enthusiasm at the moment, that's usually how it goes for the party not in power.
And the Republican was an awful candidate, dull would be kind. |

that would be true in a normal day 3-5% differential district, but this was a huge solid trump district by 20%.
nearly all republicans are awful candidates, with a few exceptions. One being the gov of Nevada an outstanding person... If the dem candidate was Bernie I would vote for Sandoval over Bernie any day.

| Twenty point swing. People are starting to understand that Trump is at least a blowhard, if not a traitor. |
