Rewrite

Everything that's been written about Election 2024 - throw it out.
No Biden running now.
It looks like Harris takes the Democrats' top spot but we have four weeks to be completely sure.
Plenty of nice things being said about Biden now.
But you don't trash the deceased at the viewing or gravesite.
Buckle up.

Today's Liberal talking points meeting

"I got nothing."
"I got nothing."
"I got nothing."
"I got nothing."

Happy Immunity Day

A few minutes until the final Supreme Court rulings of the year.
How much immunity will they give President Trump?
Just enough.

Mr. President, what brand of adult diaper are you wearing?

 Perfect question for Thursday's debate.

Farewell to a furry friend

Shortly after I started this blog, we picked up a Yorkshire Terrier puppy we named Laila.

Her journey ended tonight after 15 and a half years. 

I found this new take on Henry Gross' song Shannon from the spring of 1976.

Joe Biden is too old

Posting has been sparse on the blog.
What's something that will stay newsworthy until the next post?
Saying Joe Biden is too old to be president.
And it's scary that Democrats won't notice.
Maybe they also suffer from early onset dementia.

Glenn Youngkin and Jerry Seinfeld

VCU students walked out on Governor Youngkin's speech Saturday.
Duke students walked out on Jerry Seinfield's speech Sunday.
Before this weekend, did you think those two were on the same team?

Biden staffers for Trump

Democrats are releasing videos with Mitt Romney, Mike Pence and Chris Christie says how they won't vote for Donald Trump.
Do they think Republicans and Independents will listen to those voices?
More likely, it will bring voters to Trump.
Thanks, team Biden-Harris.

Are you better off now than you were five years ago

It's officially Trump vs. Biden, the rematch.
Team Biden will try to tell you things are better under his watch.
Of course, life is better than COVID year 2020.
But what about 2019?
Are we back to where we were then?
If not, why not?
That's the question Biden needs to answer.
Now taunt progress from the bottom of the COVID pit.
But where we were before it happened.

Can 12 people decide the presidential election?

Now that the Supreme Court has said Colorado (and other states) can't keep Donald Trump off the ballot, Democrats turn to the pending trials.
Will Trump get convicted of a felony before election day?
Today's message is - no.
A jury trial between now and election day will potentially change the result.
Thus 12 jurors would disenfranchise millions of Americans.
So it won't happen.
No matter how much Democrats want it.

Hail to the returning chief

At the beginning of the day, there was a chance Donald Trump would be kept off the ballot in Colorado - and maybe other states.
At the end of the day, he's on a glide path to victory over Joe Biden.
Biden was basically declared senile by the special prosecutor.
Then he attempted to spin it as being cleared.
Before fighting with the press corps on a brief availability.
The Democrats pinned their hopes on Biden in 2020. Now, they are finding the cost of that decision.

I've seen worse

It's taken a few days to get over the Ravens' loss to Kansas City.
Taylor Swift instead of Lamar Jackson in Las Vegas in two weeks.
But I'm old enough to remember other losses - some worse than this week's.
Like the 1969 Orioles losing in the first baseball season I followed. I went to my first game at Memorial Stadium on June 28, 1969 and watched them lose the World Series - while the world celebrated the Amazin Mets.

The Colts left Baltimore bereft of NFL football until Art Modell brought his team to town.
I work at the University of Virginia. Hearing 2018 and UMBC still hurt.

Unfortunately, every sports season ends with one winner and multiple teams preparing for next year.

Winning a championship is sweet - but joy is fleeting.

Enjoy the game - even if your team is not on the sideline.
