I'm beginning to think both should. AND while we're at it, can we press the Dems to change some of the people we see on these committees? Is that allowed? I don't want to see Biden anywhere anymore. And he's on more than one committee? Don't we have anyone else qualified to serve on major committees? Ditto for Lieberman.

1. depends on who's counting the votes and if there are meaningful audits in
place.

3. That's up to the media.
And I sure don't want to have to trust the media or the voting machines. I'm sending another note to the DNC to urge they deal with both issues soon.

6. Third party attempts are not in a good position to
capitalize on either of the two main parties' weaknesses.

So it's still going to be a dust-up between the corrupt GOP and the inconsistent Democrats. Between those two, the Republicans stand to lose significant ground, if not one or the other chamber.
