Cup Runneth Over: Aug 8, 2009; She said life's
Too short to worry
Life's too long to wait

Not to love everybody
Life's too long to hate

There are women and PoC who deal with poo poo every day whose enemies are being validated by this election. Sexism and racism are the loving issues you asshats.

And rural poverty in the midwest, and the Iraq War.

Clinton's going to lose, Trump will be president and Republicans will have control of the Senate, House, and likely the Supreme Court.

Accept it, take it in. Shits going to be bad.

But it won't be the end of the world.

They treated him like a real candidate, never attempted to make him answer for having no real policies, didn't give a poo poo over any of the ridiculous poo poo he did other than the pussygate, and equivocated it to the loving emails.

In a mass democracy, anyone who can get 50% plus one of the vote (or EC) is a serious candidate, whatever you think of them

People are focusing on Michigan right now, but Wisconsin is just as much of a problem for Clinton. She�s trailing there by a slightly wider margin and more of the vote is counted.
