10. I am heartsick.

This feels like a dragged out version of election night - watching one by one as the blue wall states fell, waiting and waiting for some sort of reversal that never came.

While I hope Senator Franken does not resign, I will understand if he does. To have over half your colleagues not even be willing to stand with you while the ethics hearing plays out must feel like abandonment. How agonizing it would be to walk back into the senate chamber knowing people who you thought were friends want you gone. I would feel so betrayed.
