Progressives have Shit for brains too. Their "Democratic Socialist" "Defund the Police" Nonsense is Never gonna "Play In Peoria" or any "flyover country", where a guy like Biden pulled in the elderly secret racist dementia voter bloc, which is still Yuge. Every time AOC Tweets out on Columbus Day (oh sorry Indigenous Day) "Columbus was a Genocidal Maniac who Butchered Millions", that's Millions who will NEVER vote Blue.
Progressives & Trumpers have that much in common: Can win primaries, but are Toast in General Elections (oh sure there are 90 - 100 solid Progressive districts in the House, but . . . statewide? Presidential? Fuggeddaboudit! Obama was the closest you'll ever get, & you all H8ted him cause he Smart Bombed terrorists (Good for Him)

Well legal weed is Hardly the 1st priority of most voters. Isn't it always "Jobs Jobs Jobs"? Certainly in Manchin's home state. But anyone who thinks any pol on either "wing" can do anything to bring non-Anthracite coal back is living in la la land . . .
Much of the time, folks vote out of habit for their incumbent, regardless of party. It's an Odd Dysfunction of US Voter attitudes: Most of us absolutely HATE all politicians, especially Senate / Congress in general, BUT . . . Most will also say, at the same time, they Love/Like their individual Senator / Congressman. Polls have been demo'ing this for decades, at all levels, Fed / State / Local. Or else they "pull the party line" in a "wave" year (blue or red). Even when "party lines" have been eliminated from voting machines (ok we don't use those types of mechanical lever machines anymore, you know, the ones everyone used to trust blindly, but were Fraught with 10,000x the errors, & susceptibility to Fraud, of "modern" systems, that now no one trusts).

Manchin & Synema in the Senate are DINO's & would have never gone along with any of that anyhow.

Democrats have historically been anti-weed because 1) They're all Old 2) They've always been scared shitless by the right winger's anti drug crusading, so have always been compelled to appear "tougher on Crime" than Republicans. From Tip O'Neill, who doubled down on the "Mandatory Minimums" craze in the mid 80's, to Obama, who had to be Timid about anything that upset rightwingers, from weed to gay marriage, which seems ridic because they all think he's the AntiChrist anyhow. Now you have Biden, who is Older than Moses. No, don't gimme any of that Libertarian Bullshit about how Republicans are for "Freedom". No, that only applies to forcing Evangelical Christianity down everyone's throats.

Also every state north/east of New Jersey (including), except New Hampshire. Legal recreational, legal to grow in most. Maine is Ridic, EVERYONE is Growing in Maine.

Reply to Any scenic route(s) from DC up to the Pocono Township area? by CrownStarr
I-81N to I-78E to PA 61N to PA 895E to PA 248N to US 209W(or S?) to PA 903N to PA 115N to I-80E. That's a VERY convoluted route but takes you thru some pretty nice Pocono's & farmstead scenery - the Schuylkill gap, parallel to the Blue Ridge on the north side, which is very rural, along the Lehigh River in a spectacular gorge, thru historic Jim Thorpe PA, up the Pocono's Escarpment, thru the Pocono's Plateau scrub brush forest country. You might hit tourist traffic around Jim Thorpe if you're traveling on a weekend, especially a big weekend like Easter, Memorial Day, 4th of July or Labor Day. This will also take SIGNIFICANT more time, although it's still generally in the same alignment as the major interstates. I grew up in Philly & my parents retired up that way in the late '70's ("Ashfield PA") so am fairly familiar with the area.
