Glad that is the best you have got. I am glad you are going with it.

Stick with it. I am sure that colorful moon will carry you through.

You should feel the outcome you desire is already achieved.

Though scarce little else seems to be, the moon and destiny are surely on your side.

---Pelosi says retirement decision

cut off due to tech issues.

Pointed out that she would retire rather than mention immigration failure.

Philadelphia officials voted Tuesday morning to impose a last-minute rule change that will draw out the vote count process.

The citys three member elections board voted 2 to 1 in favor of imposing poll book reconciliation, a lengthy process intended to prevent double votes, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported Tuesday. The reconciliation process would flag any mail in ballots from voters who also cast ballots in person.

City commissioners made the eleventh-hour decision at a 7 a.m. meeting on Tuesday. The board is comprised of two Democrats and one Republican. The Republican voted in favor of the change, along with one of the Democrats, while the second Democrat objected




Nice.  One good Democrat.

Was it the VA that wired you up with a hamster brain?

I only wish you had survived the operation.

RIP

Got two words for any Democrats looking for a model of how to beat back maga weirdness:

Abigail Spanberger

Moderation, pragmatism, active engagement with your constituents.

And it probably helped that her bizarro opponent seemed to believe that rape victims can't get pregnant. 

Also nice to see the bouncer toss the Oz lizard.  And generally seeing Trump's kingmaker touch erode.

The average seat reclamation by the opposing party, in House, is 29 in a midterm.  Now looks like the GOP will barely get single digits.  Not a miracle (which might have caused Yankguy to swoon) but points to the revulsion of Independents and moderates for the MAGA extremists.

Florida?  Yep, voter suppression and fear mongering works!  That's why they do it, folks.

Not a bloodbath.  Happily wrong. I'm thinking the outcome was about as good as it probably could have been.

Moon appears reddish as sunlight passing around Earth's disk goes through atmosphere which gives it a red hue.  Earth is blocking direct sun, so you get just that "sunset" light cast on moon's face.  AKA a blood moon.

OC, correct me if I am wrong, but wasnt the FLA Gov race a contest between
two Republicans?
Calling FLA red for the next millennium seems a little hasty, No?

Charlie Crist is a Democrat.  Changed parties a few years ago.

Exactly. A republican.

The Florida political establishment as a whole needs to be locked up.
