The dark thoughts that come in the meantime are:

• this latest Hillary scandal is a pretty serious one
• they won’t relent and more sh.t will come out
• this makes her barely-electable if at all
• Democrats have no one else
• one of the freak-show that is the Republican nominee roster will inevitably get elected in 2016
• Republicans will remain in control of both Senate and Congress for the foreseeable future because no one bothers to vote in the midterms
• the Supreme Court is conservative-dominated
• we are screwed (but the housing will get cheaper!)

Maybe I should quit looking for another job and beg my crap-o employer to move me to Toronto before moving to Canada becomes “the thing”.

Although – New York and New England will remain Democratic and progressive. So, things won’t be so bad at least around here.
