looks like the virginia legistature which was red may have flipped to blue.

republicans lost 19 seats and dems gained 15 seats.

there are a number of districts that are undergoing recounts.

That's true of probably every state with a major city or cities in it. Rural areas are heavily Republican. Cities are heavily Democratic.

I don't think anyone had a problem with "draining the swamp". What people did not want is the replacements coming from a different swamp, which is what happened. Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXX

Nothing of significance is manufactured there. It’s all about making money off the government. Most major cities are Democratic, but not the counties surrounding them. Except the big 3, NYC, LA and Chicago. Those are blue states. People in Northern Virginia don’t want the status quo messed with. That’s why Clinton and Obama won the state. Trump didn’t win Virginia, the incumbent Governor was a Democrat. Trump didn’t lose anything here. The Dems just held their serve.

Downballot is where the real gimmafucking took place.

That's probably how we'll look at this election. The "wall" crumbles from the bottom, not the top.

Haven't people been saying that all along?

There's no conspiracy to it. Danica Roem was born Dan Roem , a male. But through whatever malfunction he developed over the years he concluded he should have been a women. So he changes his name, his hairstyle and attire and presents himself to society as a women. Biologically though he remains a man. Personally I find that really sad, I really do. Yet people in Virginia trust his judgment and voted him to public office, to make sound decisions on their behalf. That's not a conspiracy is it? No it's the absolute truth, something liberals are deathly afraid of.

I have, or have had, friends from each of the 4 categories. Different but equal in my opinion. Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXX

I did not know about the "Q" but it is to me rather redundant. Since Q can simply refer to a gay/lesbian person, yes, I know several.

"Q can mean either 'questioning' or 'queer,' Fred Sainz, a spokesman for the Human Rights Campaign, an organization that lobbies for LGBT rights, told USA TODAY Network. Either interpretation is accepted, he said."

I'm just wondering how many other "gender" options are out there, like undiscovered planets in our solar system... can we get to 100+? Hopefully Mark Zuckerberg is working on it. Fleety needs to embrace all of them, not just 4 or 5.

Just to be clear, assup is in a "gender" category all by himself!

I have asked before if a person is of one DNA and another external genitals, how do you determine "what they are? Or what if they are born with both as in the case of a Chimera?
