Can Folks Here Stop Panicking Till A week or two later ??

I glance here once every few Hours and I see some (Though very few) Obsessing about bad poll Numbers. Its to be expected . POTUS had a not so good debatet , Romney is as his campaign would call it on "A sugar high" It will fade soon enough .

Now like Me I am getting my mind of this and the next week's news cycle (since it will all be about a Romney comeback the media was itching for) and catch Up with some shows I have heard much of but havent watched


First on the list Political Animals with the very talented Sigourney Weaver

its starts off a bit shaky .But it gets good . VERY good and highly recommended

And, I love Sigourney Weaver! I'll have to check this out. Of course, right now I'm in the midst of a John Grisham movie marathon.

I am a huge fan of his books and am usually pleasantly surprised with the movies, too. Admittedly, I am a big courtroom drama movie freak. 12 Angry Men, Witness for the Prosecution, Inherit the Wind - I love them all.

And I can pull up some threads like "Not good" "Horrible numbers " etc . Concern breeds panic eventually

Panic at the speed of light is the one thing that DU does really really well.

Take a day off and you may have missed 2 or 3 panic cycles.

The thing is it is the serum that keeps this place humming and about 48 hours ahead of the MSM.

Sometimes it is on target, sometimes off but you are going to get your panic red hot on a steaming plate, your panic will not be served cold, stale, slow or late, guaranteed.

Welcome to DU and watch out the next panic session is about to start in 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 . . . .
