I spent all yesterday asking if the Democrats …

…would take the right lesson or the wrong lesson from yesterday’s vote:

As I was driving home with Stacy after an errand I heard Rush reading this column in the Globe and I had my answer.

The sheer contempt for the electorate that the column and those who commented with approval of it drips of the bigotry I heard at the Obama rally combined with the arrogance of the Coakley campaign.

If the GOP doesn’t take advantage of this foolishness it’s only because they are not trying or in the word of Phil Sheridan:

Ride right through them, they’re demoralized as hell

If we don’t ride through them it’s because we are not trying.

Update: Camp of the Saints links and has pictures!

…who was so kind to listen to an old man pontificate. I’m actually at a 2nd computer so I will be linking to your blog as soon as my laptop is back up and unpacked. I will include said link in this post. and other.

And to the rest who are reading this, she may not think she has things to add to the conversation but after talking to her, I think she does.

Everyone has something to offer and that little bit can make a big difference. In yesterdays election everyone who voted for Scott Brown contributed a single vote, but together it made history.

Oh and check out her blog, a young woman of such intelligence and gifts, who has been quietly applying them to the cause of life, should be heard.

And to the nice young man who was with her, my complements sir!

And Stacy introduced me, for that alone you should hit his tip jar.

I drove into the Driveway at 3:48 a.m. this morning

…with a groggy Dan Collins and an even more groggy Stacy McCain.

Stacy sleeps with the TV on so I put MSNBC on the tube and almost declined to go to be as I watched the re-run with such a sense of guilty pleasure that I might need confession to handle it.

The fact that I managed not to fall asleep at the wheel is a matter of some surprise to me. The most glorious part was I was able to actually sleep till 9 a.m.

I’m sure my wife was shocked to see an extra person crashed in the den so it will be an interesting time when she gets home tonight.

Meanwhile I’ve got to take care of my guests, so I’ll get some blogging done in a little bit.

Boy the day keeps getting better and better

First Senator Scott Brown wins and now I see that Rich’s comic Blog has returned after a 27 day absence with the next chapter in his 3rd Doctor Saga, “The Stalker of Norfolk.

All I need is that job and the week will be complete.

Update…and I trust you have been reading Robert Stacy, unfortunately we aren’t sitting near each other so I have missed his pithy wisdom.

Update 2: Ok that true Adrienne is pithy too and sounder theologically.
