Thus the impossibility of cajoling Republican Senators into working with “Demoncrats” as the loonier elements call them.

That’s my thought. They created a monster and there’s no controlling it now.

There are two plagues afflicting the United States.

We’re almost to the point where the outstanding vote in North Carolina is larger than that in Georgia or Pennsylvania, at least as a percentage of vote expected in each state.

Didn’t the Italians dump Berlusconi? (Looking at Wikipedia, he was in and out of office three times, so maybe he was less of an authoritarian than I thought)

Wonder who won the election???

Oh, I forgot that Georgia still has provisional ballots to count. And look where/how much!

Maybe we see a fractured right. Probably too much to hope for.


This was expected to some degree. Any clue on the margins?

If Georgia votes out Trump I say we honorarily move them out of the South. Who’s with me?

4 million more votes. Think about that.

We seriously need to find a way to circumvent the growing electoral college problem. And after these four years, I’d be fine with whatever creative / dirty tricks we need to do it.

So, just blue skying here. What would I like? Trump led out of Mar A Lago in handcuffs by the FBI and Secret Service.

You are now welcome to begin pre-unbuckling up your LATERAL BUCKLES ONLY, but please do not completely unbuckle them. All other buckles should be firmly up.

from 538 this afternoon:

  • North Carolina : North Carolina has counted every ballot it had in its possession as of Tuesday, and Trump leads by 76,737 votes among them. However, the state has announced that about 117,000 mail-in ballots and 40,766 provisional ballots are potentially outstanding, although not all of them will count. Mail-in ballots have until Nov. 12 to arrive, and only at that point will more results be released.

Like 75-25.

It wasn’t Maricopa, obviously.

I’d like to see a toady of his betray him near the end, and then said toady gets escorted in handcuffs.

I’m fine with trading them with Kentucky.

I think most of us feel let down by what could have been with this election but if Georgia manages to pull this off then that will go a long way to restoring my faith in the future of the United States.

Not sure we get any more vote updates from PA tonight. Maybe.
