Just one red headed Mom who's been there, done that and got the scars & tee shirts to prove it - a slice of life from the feminine side of sensibility

Well now what?
Early Wednesday morning and I'm still waiting to see who will be in the Senate from the state where I live, Minnesota - I guess I don't feel much like a Minnesotan tonight until I see who comes out on top. We just elected a pro business mayor, and an anti business president - I don't see this working very well. I'm really worried - Obama now needs to actually do something - and what he wants to do will change America - into another country. Biden was right; I remember back in the 1980's shortly after Regan was elected - the old AP teletype machine was equipped with a bell, to note when something came in on "the wire" and needed our attention - one bell meant a scheduled report was in, three bells was breaking news - that night someone at AP leaned on the bell and didn't let up for at least 30 seconds - The hostages were being freed ASAP - because Tehran did not want to "test" our new President elect. There are no more AP wire bells - and I don't think there will be time to ring them anyway. I fear the next big strike is around the corner - and I do not think the president elect has the capacity to deal with it. Biden was right, our main mass media is a JOKE. Bette Davis had the right line for our situation. "Buckle Up, it's going to be a bumpy night.
