    Derby Dead Pool 2019

    “Most of the major DDP teams had him, so there’s no change at the top of the leaderboard.” Er, I believe Pan Breed and TJS jumped into 1st with Clegg’s death whereas GUN Away fell to 4th place...

    All those moments have been lost in time, like tears in rain... EDIT: Didn’t see above post, I’m tired, bah.

    Clive James

    If he sees 2020, I think nearly every DDP contender will pick him imo.

    Her body is “winning” against cancer

    Alt Obituaries Deadpool

    Maybe Banana has more points with less hits because you went for a bunch of people over 90. It really punishes you if you go for a bunch of old names, you need to focus on younger names to really be competitive. Sure, you can have a few old names here and there, but you can’t rely on doing well by having a bunch of old names on your list, and that’s what looks to be your problem

    The 7th Death of 2019

    With Valerie, I might want to read her thread if I were you, and maybe you’ll figure out why people are voting for her...

    After nearly four months of no hits, I finally get another hit. I had Johnny Clegg, and I’m sure plenty of people also had him in Alt Obits too.

    Well, that’ll put an end to my plans on eating a gecko.

    Valerie Harper

    Her husband started a GoFundMe page for her, which notes that she needs around the clock care now. Hm...

    Dead Pop Stars

    Says he no longer faces a death sentence after a cure has been found for his “untreatable” cancer. At least we don’t have to hear him overdramatize his battle anymore Good for him.

    The Priests Of Father Ted

    Still alive as of now it seems, though it would be a miracle for him to see 2020.

  24. Oh, Hillary Clinton and most of the Democratic Party being left leaning liberals is absolutely dead wrong. No, she lost to Donald Trump because of a) she was running to the “center” to try to get some moderate Republican votes and pushing away left wing voters she needed to win the election b) the negative baggage she had on her due to her emails and her ties to Wall Street, and c) most importantly, Donald Trump actually campaigned to the left on some issues like trade (which was a lie by Trump), and he was able to successfully use that to portray Clinton as a puppet of Wall Street, which he’s actually right on (granted, he’s a pretty big hypocrite himself on that fact, but it still doesn’t change the fact that she’s also a tool of Wall Street). The bigger issue, however, is that the Overton window in the US is actually pretty right wing. The Republicans are a far right party, and much of the Democratic Party is center right, and the center right of the party included people such as Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton and all those neoliberal Democrats. So maybe the bigger reason why we got Donald Trump is that much of what’s supposed to be the left wing of the country is actually serving Wall Street interests rather than the interests of the American people. Maybe if the Democrats actually served the people then maybe we wouldn’t have to deal with the idea of the lesser of two evils, or maybe our country would be in a much better place today than it is right now, but instead we have two parties who don’t serve the people and the Democrats wonder why they often lose...
