MID-TERM ELECTION PROSPECTS Week of 2018/10/29
This week becomes the final week leading up to the 2018 Mid-Term Election,
November 6, which many have stated is "the most important in my' lifetime". Well
maybe not in mine, as the last Presidential election was one of the most, if not the
most, critical elections in my nine-decade memory. That includes those in 1940 and
44 where PRESFDR-32 was candidate for third term. This was in repudiation of
the tradition started by PRESGW-01 as his second term was running down declined
strong efforts to be made 'President for Life'.
The 'national media' has continued building a crescendo of claims of "Blue
Wave" in hopes of swaying enough uninformed voters into making a major change in
Congress come to pass. If successful the result would be an undoing of all the
beneficial changes that have occurred in the time since PRESDT-45 took office. The
successes brought about by his dedication and determination are far too numerous to
enumerate in the space allowed here. One of the ones not mentioned in any media,
except one radio report, seen or heard by me is the passage of a budget for the first
time in years by Congress. Hopefully that will preclude any 'shutdown' or continuing
resolutions being needed.
The disgusting display of lying, nasty accusations, and other undignified words
and actions, principally on the part of 'paid disrupters' and Senate members with a
"D" on their voter registrations, that was clearly on video display during the Judiciary
Committee hearings and vote is not expected to decline in the future. It seems to now
be firmly established in their DNA, to the detriment of the dignity and civility of
Congress in both Houses. In my mind they seem to act more like C/F/S officials in
foreign nations under that type of government, or where a movement is under way to
bring such about.
And, of course, they are strongly supported by a, it appears, mistaken left
leaning media personnel and management. There is a continuous barrage of attack
opinion and 'news' presented with the appearance of opinion coming out of
speakers on the TV and some radios. (Not having cable in my house the FOX
channel is not seen by me, except occasionally when visiting in the homes of friends
and acquaintances.
Meanwhile in the traditional service of Kirk of the Hills (EPC) Presbyterian
Church on October 14 there was great rejoicing and praise for PRESDT-45 and
GOD for the, finally, release of Reverend Andrew Brunson, a member of the
Evangelical Presbyterian Church denomination, from prison where he had been
arbitrarily and falsely accused, and convicted, of actions against the government
of Turkey, now in control of the Muslim followers. At least there has been some
coverage of this story in the national media. His plight had been pretty much
ignored by PRESBO-44, but then he has often stated that he is really a Muslim
and so stated to the rulers in Saudi Arabia when on a visit there.
While those in the Democrat Party and media prognosticators loudly
proclaim they expect a "blue wave" next month, my opinion is that they may
have pressed their case too loud and long to the exhaustion of the voters, even
some long time supporters. It will just depend on how irritated we of the more
'common sense oriented' have become to the point of voting in major numbers.
My absentee ballot is already marked and will be in the mail mid-October, as
has been my practice for decades. This was originally because of the demands
of my professional activities in the oil exploration field.
As former Congressman Rev. Adam Clayton Powell, D, said while being
lead to prison: "Keep the Faith baby". All is not lost until the 'honest' votes
are counted.
