Did any of you think we'd be able to slay the dragon in two hours today? Remember that patience is a virtue and we must take one day at a time. This is only the first round and I'm proud of what I'm witnessing.

1. Absolutely!
The war for our democracy is only just beginning in the electoral realm.

2. The main thing today is that they had to take notice
that things here in Ohio did not go as smoothly as they want America to believe.
This will make a mark in the history books that will tell people that something happened here and now.
We must move forth from here to fix the system so every citizen gets to vote and every vote counts.

3. Agreed, I think we saw an incredible amount of courage on the part of
members of congress who stood up today to challenge the Ohio count. But we all know the issue was more than the Ohio count-it was the stealing of democracy and that was the battle that was joined today.

5. Right. They weren't calling for an investigation.
They were calling for legislation sometime in the future. Not good enough.

6. I agree with you. We need to all stick with the dems now.
It's not fun being in the minority, but we as voters can help them. I live in Ga. and my Rep and Sens are all Pubs. I intend to contact each of them on every issue. I'm also going to urge all m Dem friends to do the same. Corporate $$ means a lot to all these folks in Wash. but in the end, it's the vote that gets them re-elected and that is always their major concern.
