Last Night - Too funny

OK - we now have 18 months before the next election starts.  Probably my last political blog for . . . 18 months.

And I hate to say I told ya so.  I have lots of new money in my off shore bank account.


ANYWAY - just a few quick observations and random thoughts from last nights local and national elections and stuff as I type.

---------------------
It looks to me that every village and town that was voting to raise Levy Limits (the maximum amount you can raise property taxes) passed with a YES which to me does not sound that we're in bad shape economically.  If people don't mind paying more for services.
--------------------

What's is going on in Albany  LOL.  At one point they had 100% of the vote in and it was 6 to 4.   Then an hour later they had 200% of the vote in at 1200 to 600.  hmmmmmm  
 ---------------------

Fall River - sorry guys, no big sports complex for you.

-------------------

Mark Pocan.  Mark Mark Mark.     Mark Pocan was running for Tammy Baldwin's seat and as we all know Tammy Baldwin won her Senate bid and as ALL the news agencies are saying "becomes the first openly gay Senator".    BUT WAIT - So Mark Pocan wins and what is the very first thing he does in his winning speech?

HE KISSES HIS HUSBAND!!!    LOL  Now THAT was funny.  Never seen that before.  

--------------------

Colorado and Washington have become the first states to totally legalize marijuana. Not just for medical purpose but for entertainment.

Same Sex Marriage passed in a few states for the first time in history.  The world is changing and the Conservatives are confused by their old ways.   
------------------

SNOW - we had a trace of snow yesterday and 0.12 inches of drizzle.  Land O' Lakes in Vilas county had 4 inches, Rhinelander had a little less then an inch.

------------------ 

FOX Entertainment New - WOW - When all the networks flip Ohio blue, FOX goes totally crazy in denial.  On FB adubye posts that we really need to switch to FOX to see what is happening and as I do Karl Rove is running wild in denial.   

They actually are so upset they walk out of the studio to confront their research team IN THEIR OFFICES.  They go in and with microphone in hand as the stunned research geeks "HOW CAN YOU CALL OHIO A WIN",  and the two researcher number geeks are trying to explain the science behind this but you can see the interviewer get all glassy eye and her brain is starting to hurt.

Back down the hall,  Karl Rove, now has his own numbers and is telling the FOX people that the experts, who are paid to do this, are wrong and he refuses to except it. It's almost like he is saying "There is still time to change those votes".   

----------------------

BUT WAIT - what about The Donald!!!     Well, Mr. Trump (Republican Presidential, maybe in 2016) is FREAKING OUT on Twitter.

His tweets

@realDonaldTrump

He lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country!
 **
The phoney electoral college made a laughing stock out of our nation. The loser one!
 **
We can't let this happen. We should march on Washington and stop this travesty. Our nation is totally divided!
 **
This election is a total sham and a travesty. We are not a democracy!
 **
The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy.
 **
House of Representatives shouldn't give anything to Obama unless he terminates Obamacare.
 **
Hopefully the House of Representatives can hold our country together for four more years...stay strong and never give up!

Donald Donald Donald.
