Best Commentary on the Election Yesterday


And as I said yesterday:  Democracy is about losing.

To all of you who sympathize with my politics, I can only say:  Welcome to Texas.  And you have no idea how sorry I am to say that.

  1. Does that mean Whattaburger will expand to my northern state? Is that our consolation prize for enduring the grief of the next twenty years? / gallows humor

  2. It's not just Texas, and it's not just the South. I feel as if my country died yesterday.

  3. trex--you could do worse. McDonalds, after all, came from California.
    June--moi aussi.

  4. I fear rather than our country dying, it only showed it's true underbelly. There is a bit of hope as my little county in TX, Fort Bend, actually turned blue yesterday!! Still it feels like a death not only for us but for the world.

  5. Dems won in Harris County, too, where I expected them to lose.
    Finally, I voted for a winner in Texas!
