More fallout.

Just go ahead and shoot us.

Yes, elections have consequences. We'll pay the price because ignorant assholes voted for Agent Orange and smart people DIDN'T vote for Mrs. Clinton. And fewer than 80,000 votes in three states changed history.

Revenge of the assholes

I'll be able to pinpoint 11/08/2016 as the day I finally realized that America really has stopped being great. I've been kidding myself for eight years about conservative assholes. They're more dangerous and rotten than I thought they were.

Third Parties

According to FiveThirtyEight, there's good news and bad news for Hillary Clinton.

The bad news is that about 1/3 of Bernie Sanders acolytes are still not solidly behind HRC. The good news is that she's strong enough in the polls that she may not need them anyway.

Other than fucking up the results of opinion polls, do the Greens and Libertarians actually do anything?

Catfight

Donald Trump exchanges slaps with Lamar Alexander  in a spat over credentials and accomplishments. The Donald is pondering a run for the presidency, and why not ? He's a better prospect than Gingrich, Barbour and Palin... and at least as good as Mittens.

Added 10:44 am, same day: God save us all, Bachmann is now talking about joining the race. Trump looks better all the time.

What the future may hold

Pollster John Zogby offers this pre-election analysis and it makes more sense to me than most of the mind-clutter I've read online.

Uh oh

It's come down to this --- the future of the free world depends on the outcome of a special election in Massachusetts. I know this is true because I read it on the internet.

Primarily

David Broder on GOP primary races. To me, the best Republican primaries are the ones that turn into fullscale shootouts. When they're over, the lone survivor has so many bullet holes in him that all he can do is crawl away, looking for a shady place to die.

KEY FACT

Dedicated to Jim Ferguson. If you don't know who Jim Ferguson is, you (a) haven't seen The Missouri Breaks, or (b) have an inadequate ability to fully assimilate movie trivia.
