Reality Is Scarier
I start with an apology: I can't do it. I just can't. Not this year, sorry.
Today is when I traditionally spin scary (and amusing) stories depicting nightmares from the left and right of the political divide, but this year reality is scarier than anything I could come up with. So I am abdicating my duty. I am punting.
I did carve a Jack O'Lantern for Hallowe'en this year, but all I could come up with was a (rather crude) copy of the "scream" emoji, which (of course) evokes Edvard Munch's famous image.
That's how the entire election has felt, at least to me. And I know I'm not the only one who feels this way either.
So my heartfelt apologies for disappointing anyone who was expecting the traditional "spine-tingling tales of terror" this year, but I just couldn't do it.
Reality is too scary, at this point.
Have a happy Hallowe'en anyway, everyone....
Democratic Nightmare
Donald Trump wins the election. He proves to be not only just as bad as Democrats fear, but worse.
Republican Nightmare
Kamala Harris wins the election. She proves to be not only just as bad as Republicans fear, but worse.
Have a happy Hallowe'en everyone!

WOW!!!
:D Did *I* call it or what!!!
Several days ago, I posted this:
OK, CW... I have an offer for ya...
I can imagine you are DREADING having to write the Democrat Nightmare scenario because, whatever you write is likely going to be pretty close to factually accurate.. :D
So, if you want, I'll be happy to write it for you.. :D
Just let me know... I'm there for ya, buddy... :D
And once again, WHO called it dead on ballz accurate!!??? :D
So much for Bashi Troll's claim I am never factually accurate..
First I call that Basement Biden will NOT finish the election..
THEN I call that CW is full of too much dread and too stressed to write the Halloween scenarios!!
I am on a ROLL... :D
Of course, this DEAD ON BALLZ ACCURATE STREAK will continue on Election Day!! :D
Be warned!! :D
CW, I'll still be happy to write the Democrat Nightmare scenario...
But since my claims have a nasty habit of becoming factually accurate, you may want to opt out.. :D
JL,
will either comment move the needle enough to affect the outcome of the whole election? doubtful.
Yea... Ya'all said pretty much the exact same thing when Hillary made her Deplorable bone-head comment..
Remind me again. How... EXACTLY... did that work out for ya'all?? :D
And, judging by the dozens and dozens of Demon'rat leaders who are lining up to throw Basement Biden under the bus.... This is shaping up to be a LOT WORSE for Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris' campaign... :D
And NEW we have a Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris surrogate on national TV attacking women as "weak" and "stupid"...
I think it's so very cute how ya'all STILL believe that Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris actually has a chance of winning.. :D
Here is what you people need to come to grips with...
WaPoop declined to endorse Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris despite the fact that WaPoop has been endorsing Demon'rat candidates since Tank Boy Michael Dukakis.. A candidate that Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris is greatly similar too...
The LA Grime ALSO declined to endorse Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris even though the Grime has been endorsing Demon'rat candidates for DECADES...
The TEAMSTERS UNION has ALSO declined to endorse Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris even though TEAMSTERS UNION and DEMOCRATS are (or more accurately HAS BEEN) synonymous for DECADES....
Now, WHAT can we discern from these FACTS...
And yes, even though Bashi Troll likes to whine and cry that unlinked facts aren't really facts, they are, indeed, facts..
So, what do these FACTS tell us??
Simple...
They are telling us the same thing that Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris is not fit to be POTUS.
Hell... Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris is not fit to be the POTUS Hooker...
Which is ironic when you consider that being a hooker is the ONLY job that
Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris actually has job experience in..
So, when I tell you that Token DEI Hire Headboard Has Been Harris simply CANNOT win...
Ya'all can believe it...
OK.. It's been a REALLY long day which, for me started about 18 hours ago...
Time to snuggle with my beautiful wife...
JL, yer up! :D
Nite ya'all
I'm up? well, my completely anecdotal observation is that conversations I've had in Spanish, and news stories I've read in Spanish, suggest that the comedian who made the initial comment about Puerto Rico has had a substantial effect against Donald, while the response to Biden's gaffe was more confusion and apathy than anything else. nobody who wasn't already a hardcore Trump supporter seemed moved by it in any way. i don't believe either will change more than a handful of votes, but if one would it seems more likely hinchcliffe than Biden.
