I still have been virtually unable to sleep over worry and stress. I can go back to bed and sleep today. I know it ain’t over ’till the fat lady dings, but the fat lady is clearing her throat. There are a few more votes to count, but barring something unexpected, Biden will win in an electoral landslide, and we have a shot at taking the Senate. I will be back tomorrow, and barring unforeseen circumstances, I’ll be back to normal tomorrow. TGIF!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I think Snoopy speaks for all of us:
Please so get some sleep. You are due for some. We will still be here.
I am for sure hoping to get the Senate, but it looks like it won’t happen before January. So here’s an article on what Joe can do to function up until then. The Readers’ Digest version:
“1. Nominate relatively liberal cabinet members. And, when the Senate blocks them…
2. Appoint a bunch of FAR LEFT ‘ACTING’ Secretaries.”
And here is one of three delightful examples:
“Biden nominates a semi-liberal Treasury Secretary like Robert Rubin, and McConnell blocks it? Fine, you don’t like that…I’ll appoint KATIE PORTER as the ACTING Treasury Secretary.”
Cartoon: Great song! Sing it, Fat Lady! Sing it!!!
Coming down to the wire,….I’m getting a good feeling. Finally!
I understand how you feel, Tom, as most of us have been this way for a few days now. PTL for Joe coming through….as the numbers are showing. I’m so thankful that he’s gonna be the Man. (in the WH).
Get your rest, stay hydrated, and nap, nap, Nap! Take good, good care, nap some more, and Thanks, Tom.
Joanne: I LOVE Katie Porter! She’d do a darn good job as Acting Treasury Secretary too!

4. “As Mary Trump pointed out on Lawrence O’Donnell last night, “he’s never faced this situation before in his life. He’s always had someone bail him out. He’s a malignant narcissist. There’s no telling what may happen. Being dragged out by his ankles might be the best case scenario.” ~ Mary Trump ~
5. And…finally…the song from the Wizard of Oz: ‘Ding Dong the Witch is Dead.’ *pb*
TJI1: Yep, John is looking down at tRumpy laughing. John sees that the people are still standing even stronger representing him here on Earth.
TJI4: Really shameful…If that’s what it takes to get him out of the W.H. let our Military drag him out.
TJI5: Perfect song for when they do drag him out.
TJI #4 – see the Video Thread for the full conversation.
Cartoon: You go Lady. Great song.
Joe Biden has asked us to be patient and let each ballot be counted. As we do, Joe will continue getting more votes and moving well ahead of tRump. Too bad that tRump has to be such a poor loser, asking like a big bully with making remarks that the counting is illegal.
We’ll all be feeling better once the final counts come in and Biden hits 270.
Hope you get to feeling better TC. You need to relax.
Take care. Thanks TomCat
From a CNN article, Trump has told people he has no plans to concede even if his path to victory is blocked.
Of course it is in his benefit to fight because if he loses and is out of the WH, there are numerous prosecutions ahead which of course he does not want to face.
Mary Trump has commented that Donald Trump has never been in a position where he has had to admit defeat because daddy (Fred) was always there to bail him out. But not this time!
Donald Trump is clearly, in my estimation (I am not a medical professional), insane and needs professional medical attention.
Perhaps the Fat Lady should sit down . . . on Trump!
I like how the fat lady thinks, and I like Wagnerian opera!
Trump is taking Pa. to court; Georgia will do a recount…” It ain’t over ’till it’s over!”
But, boy do I want to dance!
There are lots of us fat ladies in opera, not all Wagnerian by any means – here’s Stephanie Blythe in Carmen
I hope that by the time you read this, TomCat, you’ve caught up on some sleep and most of your worries have been laid to rest.
Cartoon: Let’s hope die Walküre will sing soon.
Prediction: A map I rather see than the TRump Virus maps.
Thanks and Hugs to all. I think I will be able to sleep now!
