losing House of Representatives seats blah blah blah...
My eyes flew open wide, I jumped up and said BASTA! ENOUGH!
NOT ONE DEMOCRATIC candidate was able to run a ground game so necessary to inform voters!
The Democrats honored the COVID social restrictions needed to help protect all people.
No door knocking.
No house parties
No rallys held in halls
No booths at fairs, and other public gatherings
No ward meetings
No conventions
No hand shaking
I will NOT allow the other side to define perceived faults to diminish our hard fought win.
And, I am waiting for the media to start writing about how the trumpets need to understand the Biden voters.

I may have to reconsider my (early) morning routine.
I still feel that it would have been the blue wave expressed in the polls were it not for all the voter suppression, post office sabotage, crazy redistricting, limiting polling places, machines that don't work, no paper trail and vote flipping, social media propaganda, fraudulent robo calls.... and all the rest. It is amazing that democrats are even close to winning.
So shut up Joe. The democrats were right to put as much money as they could into the Senate. (sigh), without a majority in the senate I feel my ulcer coming back.
