It's Turdsday, and Donald Trump is still campaigning, and much of the electorate pays no attention to his NUMEROUS faults. Meanwhile, the Senate and Presidential races are steadying at around 65%D-35%R chance for both. I wish it were not so close. I still see about 323 EC votes for Clinton - by giving her Florida, North Carolina and Nevada, and maintaining her firewall States. Having 56 Senators would be handy, but probably not in the cards. 52 was barely enough last time around.

A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich
