Tales from volunteering at my county's Democratic Party office.

1. Guy calls the police because his 8x12 foot giant Biden/Harris sign in his front yard was ripped to shreds. After he tells his story to the dispatcher, she responds,” You must be one of those people who want to defund the police”. Bottom line, the police don’t care one damn bit about his BH sign.

2. We have a big map of our semi-rural/ rural red county on a corkboard in the office. Every time anyone comes in to replace a stolen or defaced Democratic sign, we ask them to put a push pin on their location on the map. There are hundreds and hundreds of pins in the map. And these are just from the people that came into the office. Local Republicans are angry and scared, I’m guessing.

3. I worked in the office in the months prior to the election in 2016. The contrast between then and now is quite remarkable. The volume of people coming into the office now for Democratic signs, flags, hats, pins, etc or just to talk to other Dems. is 4-5 times more than in 2016! Some days we can barely keep up with the volume of people. And the enthusiasm is very high. So take heart, fellow Dems! From my perspective, we’re looking pretty good! (But I know it ain’t over till it’s over, so not counting the chickens just yet) I’m cautiously optimistic.

What do you think about calling attention to people who don't wear masks in stores?

Should we be calling them out, or asking them kindly if they could put a mask on, or ignoring them? What do you do?

I have one word for Kamala: Bravissima!

Perspective from Cousin Dupree the R.N.

What kind of person, who is supposed to be a responsible role model to an entire country, infected with a virus that has caused a pandemic, leaves his hospital bed to take a car ride?

What kind of doctor(s) allow that patient, jacked up on steroids, to make a very irresponsible decision that jeopardizes his own safety and that of others around him during and after this ride?

Those people in white coats stand out there in front of the cameras with their big smiles and their happy words and act like they’re having a party. With 210,000 people dead and more to come. And they and their patient look like a bunch of ignorant fools. They all make a mockery of what is going on in the lives of the common people of this country. Since when do medical personnel willingly allow their patients to leave the hospital and return at will? Infected. In a pandemic.

Trump and his clan exposed my candidate and his wife unnecessarily at the debate.

The Trumps in the audience did not have masks on. I’m having a real hard time mustering any sympathy for these people
