63. Not happening, not that I don't admire you're thinking.

I don't think we're winning even the House back.

I hate to be this much of a downer and, no, I'm not a troll. I've been on this forum for several years.

But I do think the fix is in and that the fight we're about to enter will be one fought for decades to come. I also think I will die long before knowing the outcome.

I wish my gut told me otherwise. And I do hope you're right - or that, at least, the Dems take the House back and put the brakes on the destruction of this country.

But that's just not what I believe. Too much corruption and evil at the helm now.

To quote Shakespeare: "By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes."
