i've been getting a lot of spam mail of late-both here and in my regular e-mail address. for a long time i wasn't receiving any-wonder why now.

i've also been picking up a lot of right wing trolls- nasty people. i'm not sure if it makes them feel better to say the things that they are saying or if they really think i might change my votes.


fat chance of that. truly, there are a lot of other things that i could be doing other than monitoring the campaigns and fact checking. believe me, i've seen and heard and read things that would make most people throw up their hands or throw up their lunch!  there's a lot of hateful and violence prone people and groups in our country, let alone stupid. i wouldn't be doing all that i am if i didn't believe in the importance of this election.


thankfully, i've seen a lot of good and decent people and deeds done as well or i would despair.


i will say again. republicans, good moderate republicans- take back your party before you have nothing resembling the republican party of old left to save.

and those of us that believe that we need MORE choices as to parties- AFTER the election let's get to work on a  VIABLE 3rd. or 4th. party!
