So true. I dramatically decreased my intake of political news about a week ago. It was all so...depressing...

Tick, I'm already working on that President Hillary Clinton thing you recommended. And taking a lot of Maalox.

My only goal for Auburn football right now is to beat Georgia. We've lost to them 8 out of the past 10 years. That is ridiculous considering they haven't been all that good. We've done better against Bama even though they are a WAAAY better program.

The Dawgs are terrible this year. We will rarely have a better chance against them. But they have s tendency to play like the Jags against everybody else, but play like the Patriots against us. Time to put a stop to that.

I won't click that link either. I don't want to start getting spam about the great white conspiracy to keep the black man down.

I also don't want lots of unsolicited pictures from "BlackB__chBadonkidonk.com" any more than you do. Probably even less so.

Vietnamese-Americans Are No Longer A Lock For The Republican Party
http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/vie ... can-party/
“For a long time, this [Vietnamese-American community] was the most heavily Republican group of Asian voters,” said Taeku Lee, a professor of political science and law at the University of California, Berkeley, and a principal investigator on the NAAS report. “Then, in 2008 and 2012, they began to turn Democratic and a key driver of this shift has been a growing generational gap.” He said the gap was similar to that of Cuban-Americans, with older voters supporting Republicans. But Lee added that even that is changing. “In 2012, about 58 percent of Vietnamese-American registered voters over 50 voted Democratic,” he said.

When I first looked at it, I thought that headline was "Vietnamese Americans are no longer flock for the republican party"...

Race for POTUS is - and has been - over.

Senate race has Dems up by a TD with the ball, 1st and 10 at midfield and less than 2 minutes on the clock.

House has Dems down a TD with the ball and 2 minutes on the clock, but they're on their own 20 with no time outs left.

Sorry, Crash. I've been going through the whole Kubler-Ross thing about this election. I've already been through denial, anger, bargaining, and am currently in the depression phase. That's why I haven't been posting much recently. I'm not quite to acceptance yet, but I can see it from here.

Hillary's jokes were kinda mean at the Al Smith Dinner tonight. She did get in an all-time zinger: "Teleprompters are hard to keep up with. Especially for Donald, who has to translate from the original Russian."

That's an old Pat Buchanan joke. But German instead of Russian.

Thanks - I do recall it now that you've pointed it out. It's funny in the context of both of them.

How much longer must we tolerate the Al Smith dinner? After all, it's sponsored by that dangerously misogynist and homophobic hate group, the Catholic Church.

Those terrorists deserve the coming fines for theological sedition.
