re: #137 The Very Reverend Battleaxe of Knowledge

Yeah, I was mad enough to spit nails when Nixon was elected, but I was only 16, so I hadn’t had hope beaten out of me yet.

Hope is not beaten out of me. (Consider all the seats which have flipped from R to D since Mr. Trump was elected.)

There is always a crazification factor in the US electorate who will pull the lever for R-Beelzebub. That’s baked into the conservative cake, and yet we manage to overcome it.

There aren’t nearly as many conservatives nowadays who would openly argue against interracial marriage or for segregation (though some still do).
