It sounded a little over the top at the time even though I thought it was pretty much true. Turns out it was very true. (I'm thinking about that group that was aiming at the supreme court and the others who were aiming at Roe v Wade and down ballot offices in states, like school boards, and all the religious zealots aiming at control of everyone else.

I voted for Hillary, but I admit I was holding my nose - she was too close to corporate America to suit me.

My biggest regrets - not getting Howard Dean or Burnie Sanders.

My choice for presidential candidate - Amy Klobuchar or Eric Swalwell.

Just sayin'.
