94. I can't tell you how much I've needed the past eight days

from the first Mueller indictments to the explosive election results last night in VA... I needed SOME kind of reassurance that others were just as pissed off as I am and that some semblance of the legal system still working... Because believe me when I tell you my next course of action was going to be buying a bunch of weapons, moving into the bush off the grid and starting some kind of weirdo leftist sovereign paramilitary militia or something...

Thanks to all my fellow volunteers who worked tirelessly to make this happen, and never lost sight of the goal or wavered when 99% of the punditry could only talk about how fractured and divided Dems are, and how we don't have any ideas and Hillary and Obama are EVUL and how working class white folks will never ever vote for us and all the other silliness... I realize after last November how much of a struggle it was to get back on the campaign volunteering horse, but folks got it done!

A hearty FUCK YOU to the haters, trolls and useful idiots left, right, and middle who even now are either trying to diminish the victories as no big deal, slander Northam before he's even sworn in, or steal all the credit for the victory even though they didn't put in any work... This shit is SO all up in your goddamned ugly faces... (Democracy for America, I'm looking in your direction)

An indirect thank you to the Neo-Confederate/Nazi/Alt-Right/Pepe/White Power little boy's club... Seeing all these out-of-state license plates converge on Charlottesville with their Glocks and Armalites to rain down chaos and violence (twice) got everybody's eyes open, even the non-political people... And Trump's constant pandering/apologia for this bunch of "patriots" was practically gift-wrapped for us. Here's a dime's worth of free advice: You overestimated by a factor of at least 20 how many white folks were willing to stick their necks out to save some crumbling Confederate statues...

Also thank you to the GOP, Fox News and all the other far-right outlets who literally have to manufacture new scandals/conspiracies each day about Obama, Clinton or some other Dem just to have some content, because that just reinforces to me that you're completely out of ideas.


But it is important to remember that LAST NIGHT WAS JUST STEP #1... We have to maintain this kind of intensity in every race from now until 2018, 2020 and beyond... We cannot ease up for even 30 seconds... The GOP aren't that fucking stupid all the time and even they'll realize sooner or later that Obama/Clinton are out of office and that well is dry so they will counterattack in '18 with a re-tooled message and better candidates... Remain vigilant and keep the pressure on!
