If big money wins out and gets a Repug as president, my husband and I are leaving the country. It would just be too sad to stay here seeing this great place destroyed on purpose by the ultra greedy 1%. Not sure where we'd go, have looked at several places. Right now Portugal is sounding pretty good, but we need to go there first and see if it's really as good as my cousin says.

Of course, I'm hoping sanity prevails and will do everything I can to help this occur. However big $$ got Scott a 2nd term here in FL, which i never thought could happen, so am certainly not 100% confident we can win in the general.
