I've been saying this since August 2, but I think the beautiful women of America are a dark horse in this election.

I've been reading suburban women aren't polling as strongly for D's.

I have little confidence in the polls, at the moment. And possibly ever.
Will be interesting to compare what happens tomorrow with the VTB vote back in August.

I think this is correct but would also add youth.  Youth is youth and will probably still youth it up, but it seems like they are a bit stirred up right now and I read last week that youth voter registration is high right now. 

That said, I think Wacks will get to yank one to the picture of Mitch McConnell he keeps in his wallet.  Unless the ladies and youth do some darkhorsing around, I think best case is that the pubs take the house the dems gain a seat in the senate.  My gut is Dems lose both house and senate, though.

Other things I think will happen:
1. Herschel will redefine the low bar of being elected to the senate of the United States of America
2. Herschel will redefine the low  of my personal faith in the American electorate to actually overcome our flaws and create a solution to our current political system and it's problems
3. the next two years will be the worst political years(functionality and rhetoric wise) in my generation thus far
4. Pubs being POS thread will thrive in same time line

Fanning allegedly loves voting, but he's too chicken to put his continuing presence here to a vote after the Texas win. Votes for me but not for thee, it seems.

Please respond below and tell us what you're going to do if "our democracy" comes to an end Tuesday evening. 

Also, for #blueanon parents, will you be marking your doors?

NSIAP. Anyone else out there doing "victory strikes" to encourage the Almighty to intervene on behalf of the candidates they support? I've seen some weird stuff in church / religious contexts over the years but this is really weird:

What did the polls say about the KS abortion vote in August?  Polls have been nowhere near accurate over the last two presidential elections.

I'm going to do some victory strikes tonight...




...out at Ward Parkway Lanes where I'll continue my terrific, strike-filled season.  Currently carrying a 209 average.

:lol: :lol:

Maybe a blue checkmark would be appropriate for the door marking?  Wait, maybe not because then they might seem to be backing Elon..!!  :runaway: :runaway:. What to do.. :blank:

How many economically challenged city blocks will burn (again) if Pubs take both houses?

Federal facilities attacked? On how many successive nights?

Since #blueanon SBF Biden is President, no need to worry about another White House storming.

I shudder to think of the amount of property (esp private property!) Could be damaged. People getting slaughtered in the streets I'm fine with. But to see stuff hey damaged is where I draw the line

reflects more uncertainty than has been the norm, imo.  in addition to less confidence in polling, there's a fair bit of conflict between the republican leaning national environment and some really poor republican senate candidates.

4. Pubs being POS thread will thrive in same time line

Especially if both houses are gained by pubs it's going to be a raucous 2024, it'll be no matter what, but even more so.

I think pubs get the house (538 pretty in on that) and it's 50-50 senate.

I also think we're a decade plus (basically the decline of the boomers) away from significant structural changes to anything, and it's just a period of turmoil politically and will take a while to pull out of it

Just going to hold out until a pub is back in the WH and another generational #blueanon enclave fails to perform on behalf of its citizens.   

Which will be about 12 minutes in.

While Hillary et al are already working to delegitimize 2024.

Just be warned that something that we were assured couldn’t possibly happen, just might happen in 2022.
