For what it’s worth

Biggest surprise for me last night – Trump strength in early count
Biggest surprise for me this morning – Georgia leaning to Biden
Based on news reports, absentee votes still being counted, and news projections that look reliable:
Update: As of 11/5 – 8:45 Central
Everything looks accurate except for one electoral vote in Maine
(Damn! Now Biden is down to 306)
This looks plausible to me based on how the un-called states are trending. The Senate seems a lot more iffy, though. If Moscow Mitch keeps the majority it’s going to be a lot harder to get things done.
Al Franken provided some much needed comic relief last night when he tweeted, “What do we want? Patience! When do we want it? Now!”
A friend remarked that she would have liked to have been a fly on the wall in January, 2008 when Joe Biden had lunch with Al Franken and Barney Frank.
All we would need for a fourth would have been Dorothy Parker. Sort of a reprise, I suppose, of the Algonquin Round Table.
I’d like to be a fly on the wall (or on the vice-president) when they finally break it to Trump that his fun is over and it’s time to leave the White House and face the music. His meltdown will be epic.
I would pay to see that, Infidel.
