Gloria Moraga - Political Woman

It is NOT an option for me to turn off the television on Election Night in America. For me, it is the World Series, the Super Bowl, and the Oscars all wrapped up into one glorious night. But like the rest of 2020, Election Night is trying our patience.  We are still counting votes. And as I remain glued to the TV, I wince at phrases like these, "Biden is on the CUSP winning the election," "We are on the verge of having a decision on the Presidency." It's a "Razor's Edge vote." VOTE ALERT! KEY RACE ALERT! None of the Alerts are real alerts. The one real laugh happened when, after Trump's ridiculous Thursday night comments CNN Anchorman, Anderson Cooper said, "Trump is like an obese turtle, flaying on his back in the hot sun, after realizing his time is over." 

That could be the "sound bite" of the year because it sums up 2020! The only thing that saved me from descending into madness was my Sister, Elizabeth, and my nephew; Joey came to visit and watch the returns with me. Thanks  both of you! After all that, they agreed to take part in this podcast episode.
