If Republicans lose Wisconsin, Priebus loses his job.

Christy was dumping $1 million in governors races during the last week. 

I was just listening to Ernst and thinking, woman, veteran, maybe it will be a good thing. Then she said something that completely contradicts each other, ISIS and $16 trillion debt. She's another Bush, "Damn the torpedoes, full steam a head, the kids can pay for the war we had to save the country." Another Bush.

Get ready for all the hostile legislation no one ever thought the USA was capable of, abortion, gay rights, educational priorities and achievement, alternative energies, environmental law, war AGAIN, finance reform, health care, voting rights, changing the tax structure to giveaways for Wall Street and the wealthy, burdening the little guy and basically erasing decency from the American landscape. 

The Democrats did all they could do to protect the country and our democracy, but, money trumps every concerted effort. I am grateful for the victories we held and the Governorship of Gerry Brown. He is amazing. He has a real handle on what is occurring in that state and if we were to lose California agriculture to drought and warming, the country would in far worse condition. 

The Democrats were correct to take the first two years of the Obama presidency and make all the changes we needed in this country. The Democrats ended the slide of the Great Recession and launched a magnificent health care initiative. The Republicans tried to tell the Dems they were moving to quickly and they should not attempt to carry out all the achievements they did. No regrets. It has been six years of movement in the direction the country needed. Waiting and pretending it was okay to allow people to be without health care or financial reform was as much their game plan as the continued 'political war' they embarked on with the Tea Party. 

Good night.
