at least 2 conclusions - polls were way wrong and white supremacy xtians still have lots of

clout when they turnout. let us be hopeful that last vote counting gives joe the win and maybe we even squeak out the senate

1. The Senate is done ... I don't believe we'll ever have it again.

At this point we just have to pray for Joe and Kamala.

2. I'm giving up on Polls. In fact, maybe they are just counterproductive. Yes, racists Christians are

People lie.

I have seen many Trumphumpers on Twitter and FB post variations on the "why would we tell them the truth" line of reasoning.

It's an outdated method of prediction that harkens back to a time when people were basically honest and weren't out to "own the libs."

4. I think you're wrong on the first, but it will take us until all votes are counted...

FL was a polling miss, but not by a lot (it was considered in "toss-up" range), GA and NC initially looked bad but may change when all the ballots are counted, and OH/IA/TX were longshots at best. Since then, they've been right on target in terms of states, although we'll have to wait until we get final counts on WI/MI/PA to tell -- if the first two go for Twitler, it will be a pretty serious miss.

.. this election is the last paranoid gasp of the white Xtian
patriarchalists in fear of being ruled by “others”. This also
includes women with that big daddy complex and all.
