66. This is why I might be able to sleep

Nov 2024

before the election. The first indication that the flawless Kamala campaign and despicable Trump campaign are getting through to voters.
In past times we could count on it, Trump does 10 things a day that would end any other career. But I'd lost hope that anything he could do would have an impact. But maybe Trump has finally reached lows sufficient to lose

Kamala has been brilliant beyond my expectations and we couldn't hope for more. It's encouraging to think it might have hit it's mark.

If we get Iowa, the election is won. Even if we don't get Iowa, if things are trending this way, the election is won.
