Thrilled to see we won the House in a blue wave, despite James Carville. Did better than I thought in Senate, and way better with governors. Can’t wait to see state house results. I thought Nelson would and Gillum might win, sad, thought Kemp’s suppression would work, it did (decisively), and thought Beto would lose by 6 percent at least, maybe even ten. The Dems are back in the Midwest, Texas Mexican-Americans are finally voting like California Mexican-Americans (it’ll be azul in a decade) and they are a force in Arizona and Colorado, and I think it was Indians who nearly elected a Democrat governor in South Dakota. There are a hundred women in the House, millennials voted in vast herds, California is bluer then fuck, and while a Nazi was the only surviving Republican in Iowa’s congressional delegation, a Democrat won in Oklahoma and Kansas isn’t Kansas anymore.
Basically we kicked Trump’s ass from here to the Florida state line. That squishing you hear is the worm, turning.

Glad to see some optimism coming from outside the Red Wall wherein I dwell. Tennessee has gone from being dominated by fairly middle-of-the-road Republicans to hardcore Trump supporters. There was one of those damned rallies here in Chattanooga just before the election, and although there were a few protesters outside, there were hundreds of rabid fans of the President inside.

Tennessee definitely zigged while most of the country zagged this midterm.
