You'll have to climb over the wall that Donald will build. Remember what
happened to the other famous walls in world history?

Does anyone out there have a good recipe for preparing Crow? I have a
great pile of dead birds to eat. Trouble is, my two feet are already
blocking my mouth.
But now that we've fallen through the Curtain into the Twilight Zone,
the moment to begin building a new world is at hand.
But before going on, I do need to run one final disclaimer. Remember,
I have said before that I am the world's worst predictor of
presidential elections...or most any election. In my All Blue
Washington State, I do pretty well in guessing outcomes. Cyrus Habib
took the Lieutenant Governor race, and of course Patty Murray returns
to the Senate...as a member of the minority party. But out in the
"Real World", the rest of America, my batting average would send me to
the Class B League in Podunk.
Now to lick my wounds and begin peering about. Some folks
believe...and I'm one of them...that if the democrats had allowed
Bernie Sanders to become the Party's Candidate, he would have taken
the Electoral College Votes.
It already appears that Hillary Clinton will end up with the majority
of the popular vote, so it stands to reason that Bernie would have won
by an even wider margin. But like the DNC, our wise leaders did not
trust the common "man in the street". So in drafting their Oligarchy,
they protected it a wee bit more by adding the protection of a ghostly
collection of shadowy members called the Electoral College. Remember,
there were only 13 states in the beginning. Controlling the vote in
the most populated states assured the new government a stable future.
And for nearly 230 years it has worked wonderfully well.
The use of the Super Delegate by the DNC is merely a reflection of
this internal control used by the constitution framers. And it has
backfired...in both cases. The DNC shot down their chances of
controlling the nation's direction when they smirked and froze Bernie
out of the game. The Ruling Class has set itself up for a wild ride,
watching as the winner of the popular vote, a candidate they could
have worked with, was pushed aside and they watched as the Electoral
College put in their worst nightmare.
The good news may be what I would have called the Bad News, yesterday.
Control of both Houses by the Republican Party may well be our
Salvation. No matter what wild hair is up the backside of Trump,
Congress can temper or block him.
But no matter what goes down these next four years, we had better get
busy building a Plan of Action that does include those who are certain
to take the brunt of Trump's dream of "returning to our former glory".

Clinton will be the next president of the USA. We should all be
thinking about whether we can tolerate another farce like this one.
Our election has been turned into a fund raiser for the Media, and
the whipping boy of the Far Right White.

Couldn't find their live stream on the website. Right now, seems
like Frank has been right and we'll have a President Trump. I'm
listening to the predictions of what that will mean from really
smart people whom I respect.
I doubt I can sleep tonight.
