I know the last will be a piece of cake for me. I'm champing at the bit to vote in any and every election I can.

We need to keep our eyes on the goal and encourage every one we can. Vote EVERY republican out of office that we can. At the national level in 2018, then in 2020, then again in 2022, and at the local level at every opportunity we can. Do not get distracted. Do not get discouraged, do not fall prey to whataboutism, or let the perfect be the enemy of the good. EVERY REPUBLICAN OUT!

OK, we've won some big ones. We're being told this is the sunami for progressives and the Democrats. During this time, since the plague of the Mango Mussolini, have we LOST any seats? Have the repuKKKes RETAINED any seat in special elections? I'd just like a little clarity before we all get carried away with "all this winning". We hear about the victories....are there some stalemates, and worse yet, losses we aren't hearing about?

I don't mean to be "a downer", but I want to see the whole picture, not just what we are being spoon fed by the websites.

Call me a skeptic. I can live with that. I've been burned way too many times for my liking.
