we have endured under GOP cheaters, it’s the 2000 Supreme Ct decision, 2004 (swift boats) it’s
The tea party, it’s it’s it’s…..
Kansas was uplifting, but not enough of a sign post to predict 2022 outcomes.
Besides, I live in Ohio. Have pity on me.

"His read is not metropolitan-orientated. Last year he wrote Democrats have “insurrectionist envy” of the January 6 Capitol riot. “Deep down in your soul, as you watched what your eyes could not believe was happening, admit to me that in that appalling moment on January 6, 2021, you were – how do I say it – jealous that it was the fascists who had risen up, and not us long before now,” he wrote"

No, I did not have any such envy, it never occurred to me to be envious of those thugs and miscreants.

“ Moore went to the same high-school as Oklahoma bombing co-conspirator Terry Nichols.”


So? I went to high school with RWNJ Sidney Powell … didn’t know her or hang with her … how does it make a difference ?


( I also had a brain freeze just now, couldn’t remember her name … googled
Trump lawyer female crazy … #1 return = Sidney Powell )

Who are these supposed "coastal elite" canapés and champagne Democrats (Hi, FDR), anyway? Last three presidents: Clintons, Obamas, Bidens, all working/middle class. So sick of that crap.

What he doesn't tell you is that of the top 4 candidates running, only one was a Democrat, and she got 36.8% of the vote. The 3 Republicans got 60.2% of the vote. A Democrat won because Republicans split the vote and because of their unique way of doing ranked-choice-voting.
