I have been asking her what's important to her and what she wants from the country and then pointing out the differences between the 2 parties. But it doesn't seem to matter. She is just dead set on hating the Dems.

Our wings are not tired.

You people are not doing much to distract me from packing. Which I have done none of so far. Leaving for Florida in the morning, Or ya know, when I finish packing.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I don't get the sense that sociopaths actually enjoy happy, fulfilling lives no matter how much material success they achieve. Ted Cruz has to live with being Ted Cruz 24/7.
