May you be rewarded and uplifted tomorrow, Game Day for political America.
May you feel joy at surviving the robo-calls, and those idiots going door-to-door, and the lies.
It's now safe to pick up the telephone again.

Well, it died for me sometime around 7 p.m., EDT. The robo-calls by far were the worst, though very few actually sounding locally-produced. One of the area Donks running for state rep was doing a bunch of calls (usually twice a day), and the state GOP was awfully anxious to remind folks to support two Republican state supreme court judges (a "non partisan" position).

The local newspaper endorsed all the usual wrong people, and across Michigan's lowest tier of counties, it now appears Mark Schauer (D-Union stooge) will whip Tim Walberg unless people vote straight-ticket against a despicable local Demoturd running for state senate. I'd say the odds are slim it will actually go that way, but always hope.

Michigan overall will trend right (it swings each way, about every eight years). The horror of Jennifer Granholm (the Canadian Trash Queen) will fade and the overeducated idiots will reign, when the RINO Ann Arbor computer whiz-kid behind Gateway, something Snyder, will show us what epic failure is all about.

Thomas Sowell once said, "There is usually only a limited amount of damage that can be done by dull or stupid people. For creating a truly monumental disaster, you need people with high IQs."

The People's Republic of Ann Arbor is just loaded with them. Geeks running tech outfits are loaded with degrees as well. I don't expect Michigan education reform on Snyder's watch. If anything he'll want them onboard to change us into the Information State.
