An Election Reflection



In the wake of yesterday's Presidential election, I feel a strange sort of elation—like the feeling you get when you stop hitting yourself with a hammer...

Both the Donald and Killery are poster-children, in different ways, for the White American Id. As the leaks of the Podesta emails confirm, the DNC, acting on behalf of the Clinton campaign, torpedoed Bernie’s chances and the Clintons elevated the Donald because they thought that they could use him as their stalking horse. The plan back-fired. That’s democracy for you.

The Democratic Party needs to split now. Let the neo-Liberals and Fauxgressives sign on with the Republicans and let the Progressives join the Greens as I did when Bernie left us standing at the altar.

And then let us move forward in hope.
