if you still feel optimistic about next week, why?

35. Feel the same way

The early vote makes me think we will not be crushed, left for roadkill, as was the prediction at the top of the year.

The Senate races are tight but not impossible. If our young voters come out en masse on E-day, we can definitely win the day. Fetterman, for instance, is winning the early vote by 50+. Oz may appear to be ahead as the E-day vote is counted first but those Democratic banked votes will be counted and change the tallies throughout the night. Wait for it!

The House? That's a crap shoot but my hope is we keep the Repug numbers down, so that McCarthy is handed a shit sandwich, a low majority at best and a two-year nightmare for his grand ambition where the Magat caucus/circus demonstrates its desire for chaos and non-governance at every level and makes McCarthy look like the power hungry fool he is.

Why?

Because the elected crazies will reveal themselves in living color, a full exposure for the American public leading straight into 2024. Magats are not leaders or interested in the country's welfare. They're bomb throwers, chaos agents, publicity hounds at best. That will be on full display.

So yes, considering where we were at the top of 2022, I'm optimistic.
