Nate Silver's 538 has polling indicating post-debate changes in polling position. Unsurprisingly, Biden lost support and Harris gained it. However, more Biden supporters moved to other candidates than to Harris.
Personally, I was delighted to see Kristen Gillibrand's net favorable rating decline, although probably not by a statistically significant margin. Boo 'er off!

3. "Knock it off" is the best anyone can do when somebody spouts disgusting defamatory bullshit like that?

Have I mentioned that my cat--like the Cheshire cat--can make herself invisible at will. Today she disappeared for a few hours and both of us searched the house form top to bottom with special attention to her hiding places. Nothing. A few hours later, I walked into my dressing room and there she was on my chair--we both swear she wasn't there earlier.

Good. If I can be of help, whistle. If the first place cannot meet your needs see if they've a social worker you can speak to --they usually have a list of places that might work for you. You might also speak to your recently widowed sister if you need a short term place until you work this out,

The guys down the street must have bought 5 grand worth of fireworks. I heard the noise and thought it was the downtown show.
I went outside and they were setting off HUGE skyrockets, professional size. It lasted for at least half an hour. Jenny took a video.
The dogs, of course, are traumatized. When it was finally over and we came back in, we discovered every one of them had pooped in the house!! I now have one hiding under my desk, one hiding in the bathroom, and the other onequivering in my daughter's arms.

Thanks. I guess I have known you longer than anyone herem since our days at Ace of Spades.
It was just so horrible to hear that after that beautiful speech the President gave, that it sort of broke my heart.
The neighborhood fireworks sort of settled the discord for a bit. I think I will start looking for a place tomorrow and talk to my son.
Can't move in with the widowed sister, however. She is a democrat and as bossy as Hillary! LOL!

Interesting story. Interesting use of the money. If it comes out of their "missions" budget does it mean they are spending in America instead of overseas?
Grand Rapids First, a church in Wyoming, Michigan, announced on Sunday it will pay off the medical debt of 1,899 families.
The church paid nearly $2 million in medical bills for people suffering poverty. “Today, that $1,832,439.26 that’s looming over families right now, those families that are living at poverty rates or less, has been paid in full as a result of a gift from this church,” lead pastor Sam Rijfkogel told the congregation during his Sunday sermon. “Paid in full, not held against them one bit.”
Rijfkogel first learned of the medical debt forgiveness programs when a Texas church made headlines for paying off $10 million in medical debt within its community. Grand Rapids First Executive Pastor and CFO Doug Tuttle said that through this process, they learned of the massive weight of medical debt hanging over poor families in their state — nearly $180 million.
The church bought the debt for only $15,000 from nonprofit debt purchasing organization RIP Medical Debt. RIPMD will send letters notifying the fortunate families from Kent, Ottawa, Allegan, and Ionia this week. Due to medical privacy laws, the church will not know the identities of those it has blessed with its offering.
Tuttle said the money was taken from the church’s “missions” budget, so fundraising to cover the cost was unnecessary.

Things sure have changed in the past few years. I have yet to find a full transcript of the president's remarks today. Whenever Obama made a speech of any kind, the transcripts followed almost instantaneously. Perhaps the White House doesn't pass them out, and having someone actually transcribe them is too much effort for the media, although even the White House site doesn't have them posted.

Back home after watching fireworks which only lasted about 15 minutes thankfully. Now watching Trump’s speech which is just majestic. Love watching the flyover’s. The Raptors are my favorite so far. Trumps speech is a must see and listen. I don’t know what the liberals can find wrong with Trump’s speech but I’m sure they’ll do so

Interesting comment section. Anthony has an international audience and many Brits and Aussies have left comments.
Maybe it's my imagination, but it seemed like when I was younger, and we had more fireworks displays then now, and all of them on the same night, instead of spread out over several days, that it rained almost every late evening after the fireworks went off.

Up here in God's country, where, as my neighbor who lives here year round put it the other morning "I am with the men who have guns and can hunt," we always have a couple of hours of firework displays all around the lake.
Just private citizens, celebrating America.
The formal one funded by the American Legion stopped about a decade ago due to lack of financial suppoert, and the (then illegal, no not) ones blossomed, and have continued to grow each year. Trump economy!
