As a principled lifelong conservative Republican, I proudly cast my ballot today for Kamala Harris in order to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. #MakeTrumpLoseAgain

My Presidential Election votes: 96 - Dole 00 - W 04 - W 08 - McCain 12 - Romney 16 - Gary Johnson 20 - Biden 24 - Harris What could have changed this consistent pattern so dramatically?

Something that has bothered me for a long time is political pundits referring to persuadable voters in a way that seems like they are looking down their nose at them. “How could you?” Hell yeah, I’m persuadable. Currently I’m persuaded by John Kelly, Mark Milley, Mike Penc…etc

I have never watched a minute of the following shows. The Bachelor or Bachelorette The Voice Survivor Real Housewives of Anywhere I am not saying that makes me a better person, but I am also not saying it doesn’t.

This is the proper perspective. It is possible and traditionally acceptable to be able to respect another person who has opposing viewpoints. Some would make you believe this idea is a thing of the past. To that I say….pfft… you don’t understand the American spirit.

“It’s only in the context of partisan politics where someone as smart as Ben Shapiro / Megyn Kelly would take a risk like this…They would never send their kid to a school run by Trump over a school run by a median woke liberal.”

I’ve been wearing my Harris/Walz camo hat out for several weeks. I received zero mentions until the last week. In the last few days I’ve had at least a dozen people say “I like your hat”. 100% of them have been women. Small sample size, but still interesting.

The Iowa poll is interesting but it doesn’t change the game plan. Harris likely will NOT win Iowa, but the poll does tell us that if we show up…we win. Act accordingly. Go vote. Call 3 friends and tell them to vote. Whatever it takes!

It is thought that drinking water can help reduce stress and anxiety. Stay hydrated today folks. Oh, and go vote for Kamala Harris.

Stop scrolling, take a deep breath, and use the next few minutes to escape to a place where the air is sweet. 💛💚

Why did Progressive Conservatism a’la Teddy Roosevelt not catch on in The United States?

Turtles all the way down comes to mind when reading recaps of yesterday.

The anticipation on Porchfest Eve is palpable. It’s not quite Christmas Eve as a kid, but for an adult that lives in Springfield, it’s pretty darn cool. SPAR (Springfield)

Can someone explain to me like I have a 3rd grade education, how getting rid of the Department of Education is a good thing?

I say… LET ‘ER RIP! All gas, No brakes!
