Happy Days Are Here Again

If I felt recovered enough, I would be joining in on this video below.

I'm still recovering from my SI joint fusion so I'll just watch and sing along.  I am feeling elated because there were enough voters in this country fed up with tRumpism/fascism that they voted out election deniers at all levels.  With Senator Cortez Masto's win in Nevada, we retain the Senate. There are still like 21 House races still up in the air.  Even if we lose the House (and I pray we don't) I think we've given the Rethugs a clear message that we don't want their fascism and conspiracy theories, their cruel so-called Agreement with America to kill Social Security and fundamental rights. We are saying that we ARE a democracy, bound by the Constitution.

The Rethugs have been backpedalling against tRump, who is rumored to be making an announcement he's running for President again.  Good, let him do it.  It'll kill the nasty new party off for sure.  If only the Repubs would to-a-man denounce the tRumpism and bring themselves back into what it used to be: the Grand Old Party.

There is still a run off election to occur on December 5 between Sen Raphael Warnock and that poor deranged brain damaged Hershel Walker. I am volunteering to phone bank for Sen Warnock because he is the better man by far and I respect him very much.  He is an ordained minister and still gives sermons at Martin Luther King's church, Ebeneezer Baptist.  How he could be in such a tight race is dismaying. And it turns out almost all of Walker's supporters are white. I know what that means: they are in or out of the closet white supremacist/racists. They'll vote for Walker because they know Walker is a tRump puppet.  

I believe this is what happened with the governor's race in Florida as well as Georgia An evil white man is preferable to a qualified black candidate.  What happened in Texas was a travesty in that white voters overwhelming went with a racist, incompetent incumbent rather than a forward thinking liberal.  Disgusting.

Baby steps.  We'll get there, especially with young voters, Gen Z and Millenials. We need new blood in this game and I'm very happy to see several Gen Z winnning races, including one in the House. Go, Gen Z!

So yes, I'm quietly celebrating but in my heart, I'm dancing.  Happy days are here again, at last!
