YAY VIRGINIA!
Yes!!!!
Also in Virginia, Danica Roem has won again! She beat the anti- gay, anti-trans Republican.
I am just going to repeat what she said the last time she did this:
to every person who’s ever been singled out, who’s ever been stigmatized, who’s ever been the misfit, who’s ever been the kid in the corner, who’s ever needed someone to stand up for them when they didn’t have a voice of their own. This one is for you. -Danica Roem
Yah Virginia!
@MAS1581 someone was saying on one of the MSNBC shows, sorry I don’t remember which one, that when polls show 60% want impeachment that’s when Mitch will turn. But I agree it will be too late. I can’t stress how significant Mitch being booed this year at a rally is. That has not happened in his 30 plus year career. Those in the know say that shook him to the tips of his Gucci loafers! Bye bye Mitch.
I am chillin out watching my Ky Wildcats play b-ball and sipping a nice Ky bourbon to salute Andy Beshear!
Blue VA could mean we finally get the ERA!
YAY VIRGINIA!!! When I was voting yesterday, I strongly felt that the Dems would win big in VA. Even though I live in a very blue district, there was a steady stream of people coming in, and I felt something was in the air.
When Danica Roem won two years ago I was surprised, since hers used to be a fairly conservative district. But this time she won by double digits! The tide has finally turned a rich hue of blue in Virginia. I'm hopeful that we can get certain legislation finally passed.
I also had a strange physical reaction last night. After watching some of the election news, I went through a few hours and even went to bed, feeling like I was getting really sick. It came on suddenly and was pretty profound -- chills with shaking, exhaustion, etc. I woke up this morning perfectly fine and, in spite of my ongoing health challenges, I felt good. I firmly believe it was a detox reaction -- a physical manifestation of our country rejecting and dispelling some of the toxicity in its system. I wish my body wasn't such a sponge, but hey -- it passed!
@yogagirl -- double YAY!! I bet MM is sweating bullets.
@yogagirl, my husband wants me to ask you the following question: Were you sipping Pappy Van Winkle bourbon last night? ?
@deetoo NO! Pappy is totally overrated. I drink Eagle Rare which is a small batch bourbon from a small distillery outside of Lexington. It is smooth as silk. And cost a whole lot less. You can't buy Pappy in Ky anymore.
