39. I want to wake up on November 6th to a totally blue map.

When Reagan ran against McGovern the map was nearly 100% red. McGovern only carried his home state.

We already know what Cheeto and the Repugs are going to do. 2020 was a rehearsal. Hell, the only thing missing on Jan 6 were pitchforks and Tiki torches. We don't need a landslide. We need a Death Star to wipe this evil (TFG and the MAGA GQP) out existence.

We have to keep working. As Yogi Berra so eloquently stated, "It's not over 'til it's over."

Aren't there a lot of blowing past and huge swings in this model? bullimiami Sep 19 #1
