(12,658 posts)39. Nervous But Optimistic
I'm nervous, but cautiously optimistic. I think that we're going to get a few good surprises in the Senate race and will hold the Senate. (Loss of WV, but pickup in either TX or FL). I think we'll win the House, too. I think that people are just tired of the Crazy Caucus. I think we'll see a few of the Free-Dumb Caucus go.
A part of me is still wondering which country my husband and I should flee to if the worst happens.

Perfectly put. It's the magnitude of the downside risk that adds the nausea to the optimism

Apprehensive, especially with the news that Maggot states are saying they won't allow Federal poll monitors.
