I've noticed too. Neither paper knows how to describe what's in the air. They know something's different, just don't know what it is or how to say it. The first night Obama was elected everyone understood the reason for celebration. This isn't like that or anything else except maybe V-E and V-J days, which hardly anyone is alive to remember. We have only Alfred Eisenstaedt's Times Square V-J day photo of the sailor and the nurse.

The press is aping Trump in their approach to what's happening, i.e. throwing stuff out there hoping it will stick. My 2favs are sugar high and honeymoon. So analytical and so original. Watching the inside the beltway DC and NYC press left spinning in circles is priceless. Still lmrao at Tom Friedman's crowning Op-Ed on the word weird.

What's next, the ticket is too joyful for these dark days? Coach is no way to address a Governor? Coach is too folksy for America? Kamala needs to laugh less? The ticket is not taking any of what we write seriously?

Last but not least, Republicans told us Kamala hasn't done a sit-down so we will beat that drum for them! Just as they beat the drum that those with foresight should be labeled elites, anyone who dares read the room is hurting Joe, people who cite our polls shouldn't be listened to because we do all the talking, "those people" don't know what they're talking about, Ds in disarray, we love the Tortoise and the Hair race just as it is aka we wants it My Precious

To continue from Irving Berlin’s song, (Blue Skies- of course many will know it from Willie Nelson’s cover) “ never saw the sun shining so bright, never saw things looking so right.”

Let us all Do the Harris Walz waltz to the polls, vote Democratic up and down the ballot and be free. Tell your friends. We were in tears of joy watching them together Kamala and Tim!
