Listen.

Most of us didn’t expect this to be anything but stopping the slide into the abyss.

Don’t kid yourself.

I don’t think any of us are naive, or so idealistic that they can’t see what’s happening around them. Today was simply about giving us time to have a Plan B.

And we’ve achieved that. Control of the House by the Dems is a big deal, or COULD be a big deal. Some of the people who have been elected today – Halland, Davids, Omar and Ocasio-Cortez, for example, though there are many examples – are canaries in the coal mine for some of the fossils in Congress, or they should be, if Pelosi wants to fucking listen to what people are telling her and the other Dems.

So now we have time. What next?

You don’t have to know right this second, but tomorrow, when you wake up and shit still stinks, what’s our Plan B? What do we do tomorrow?

Congratulations. We’ve hit a mile marker on the marathon.

Tomorrow, we wake up, and we keep going.
