Congrats on first deserflower! Have a lovely day.
Good morning all. Thanks Nerdy for keeping this place such a refuge for us during this time and if you’re talking with Chips at all, please say hi and tell her we love her and miss her and Danny. I hope you have a wonderful day.
Good Morning TOD Family! Thank you Betsy, GGail, and all the TOD volunteers for putting in the hard work and time to elect HRC and down ballot DEMS. When HRC wins we will be celebrating you too! Thank You!
Happy Belated Birthday to Amk! Please come back! We miss you!
G’morning Nerdy & TOD!! Congrats df on #1, and Happy Election Eve Monday everyone! 🙂
FYI –
CSPAN has tonight’s event in their calendar so hoping they will broadcast for us!!
I hope so too! Should be great.
Only One Day More!
That was awesome Dudette! Thanks.
Always happy to share good stuff, Betsy. 🙂
Goooood Morning, D-ette! What a great piece of happiness to enter the village and see our guy doing his baby whispering and then to be further feted with this video clip! THANKs!
Naturally, it immediately took me down memory lane to↓ ↓ ↓ ‘One Term More’ (not that I’m asking for that *today*)!
Definitely upbeat ways to start our week off! 🙂 🙂 🙂
Hiya VC!
Thought of posting that too for nostalgia’s sake, but got distracted. 😄
😀 😀 😀 So now between us we’ve posted it twice. 🙂 Have yourself a super-duper day!
Haha! Twice for emphasis! 😆
You have a super day too! 😘
THANK you. 😉
Wow..i have never seen this…..so profound…and here we are again….
You kidding me, Pf? I feasted on this in the 2012 season along with 2 other ‘made for Pres O’ songs that always managed to get me hyped up. Happy to bring it to your attention – so many of the words are still so relevant … 😉 [particularly those dealing with the Repubs). 🙂
yes …you are so right
🙂 {{{Prettyf}}}
The media has just ambushed HRC with their stupid and rhetorical questions. http://abcnews.go.com/live?stream=2
By Zeus!
How does the saying go? “Some people are born on third base and go through life thinking they hit a triple”. This man may at one time had a “good brain” but has stopped using it and it has turned to mush! The man can no longer speak intelligently and everyone he keeps around him MUST tell him he’s great everyday or they are gone.
GM TODville.
Completely off-topic, but wanted to share this stunning photo from @mattdpearce’s Twitter timeline:
LOVE “One More Day”!!!!!
This guy should be captured and tried.
❤
Hiya Sue! Hadn’t seen you in a while. Hope you are well. 🙂
We do need to know………
Go Ohio!
Good morning TOD! Wanted to start the day with a chuckle:-)

SUNDAY INSPIRATION: CALM YOURSELF
“You can’t calm the storm… so stop trying. What you can do is CALM yourself. The storm will pass.” -Timber Hawkeye
With election day only two days away, I thought I would share this calming quote and photo to help all those who [are] so anxious.

Happy Monday TODers.
Thank you, Nerdy for all your hard work.
(((((((((((((((((Chips)))))))))))))))))
A very interesting perspective on the building of the NMAAHC
Everything that anyone needs to know about Black women in America is summed up in her face, her hands, her fashion, and that fan. I am filled with pride. This photo of Mrs. Victor returning from voting reminds me of who and what I am and from whence I came. In the poem, “We Speak Your Names,” the poet Pearl Cleage proclaims:
We are here to speak your names
because of the way you made for us.
Because of the prayers you prayed for us,
We are the ones you conjured up, hoping we
would have strength enough,
and discipline enough, and talent enough, and
nerve enough
to step into the light when it turned in our
direction, and just smile awhile.
We are the ones you hoped would make you
proud
because all of our hard work makes all yours part of something better, truer, deeper.
she has hospital or nursing home bracelets on….NOTHING was going to stop her from voting….BRAVO….
Beautiful and moving poem….filled with such awe
Bless her heart & soul!
Yes, indeed…God Bless her for doing her civic duty. She knows how precious voting really is while so many do not. I spoke with someone (white male) I worked with who has NEVER voted because he claims it just does not matter. They will do whatever they want once in office. I told him that he is unrealistic to think that voting for a candidate you will personally will get everything YOU want or you will be pleased 100% with what a person will do. As a non-voting he does not believe in this country. He is no different than a non-citizen here who does believe in this country but can’t vote.
Good morning TODville. Just want to stop in quickly to say I’ll be lurking the next 2 days. Today is phone banking and tomorrow I am a Poll Judge. I am wearing white tomorrow that’s the only statement I can make while working at the polls. Thank goodness we can have our phones so I can be checking what’s happening.
The weather will be beautiful here in Montana so we are hoping for a huge turnout that will carry our MT Dems to victory. Still don’t think Hillary will win Montana, but thankful for the few Republicans that do vote for local Dems. When Tester won he won by 3000 votes. Every vote counts. Everyone get out there and vote. I know Hillary will win. I want it to be a landslide!!!
Thank you everyone for all your are doing, and especially, our wonderful Chips and Nerdy Wonka. I really miss AMK. Has anyone heard from him? What has happened????
Have a great day, today and tomorrow, Marilyn! I’ll be thinking of you in your electoral role tomorrow and sending positive vibes that all will go as you (we) wish. Montana in HRC’s column would be terrific, but failing that, having a couple or more of Dem wins lower down the MT ticket would be nice.
Thank you Marilyn for all you do as well. God Bless.
Way to go MTM! Thank you for all you do!
(((((((MTM))))))
Thank you!!
Thanks for your good work!
❤️HUGS❤️
Thanks for what you do Marilyn.
LETS GO!
SOON: Pres. Obama Campaigns for Hillary Clinton in Ann Arbor, Mich. – http://abcnews.go.com/live?stream=2
She is so much more comfortable just being herself this time around. It serves her well.
I like that outfit on her, with the longer jacket and the fit of the pants.
#MyTwoCents
Just thinking that myself
One of my cousins and his family were in line for early voting at a library in their neighborhood, which is mixed, but has more white people than any other group, had an experience with voter harassment. This white guy was harassing everyone with his comments and threats etc. The cops were called and they did their jobs in the way that one would hope every law enforcement officer would. They got the guy away from the line, questioned him, and explained to him what the laws are regarding this type of behavior. Told him that when they checked back if the had moved beyond the designated distance or if anyone called them, they were taking him to jail. The cousin said that the white cop was fierce; it was like “this shit will not be happening.” This is huge for my area.
Bravo. Law enforcement does take the job seriously. Good news for voters
I heard this on NPR and they would not say it was because the Market is afraid of the uncertainty of a DT win. It claimed it was because so many investors are “gambling” that Clinton will win that the market dropped or rebounded because it looks like she will win and their gamble will pay off. I call “BS”! the Markets are scared to dead of DT win and a GOP take over. They might get tax cuts in the short run but the economy will surely go to shit in the long run.
Yep – world markets are the same – and the press in my world IS saying it is because Trump is seen to be losing.
Yeh Baby!

the Latino community…just like the AA community…but UNLIKE members of the trump community…can read the tea leaves…and will vote in their own interests….AMEN
This is how GOP GOTV works – not quite as they expected. And those white folks who vote against their own best interest – they truly think they are smarter than the “others”
The replies made my day.
Sometimes I just pretend for a few minutes that it is really PBO running for his second term. The reality is exciting and painful.
Thanks for posting Dudette! This is VERY promising news 🙂
Encouraging and uplifting too, HF! 😄
Good news, make it happen!
The Obama effect. I certainly hope Patrick wins.
Amen!
Hello TODable TODbots. it’s Monday, the eve of 08Nov16 Presidential Election.
Not a terrible day, weatherwise. It’s Nov, therefore 😉 No Complaining.
Thanks to NW, TOD keeps Rocking & Rolling.
Congrats, DF on your Au Furst ⭐
Where are you At, Amk? Check me, man 🙂
LP, Check in too, please 🙂
{{{{ ❤ Chips ❤ }}}} I am hoping that you and Danny are doing well. Miss you both.
It’s not Beloved Chips or AMK but me Alma thanking you Nena for bringing me to TOD eight years ago. My life has been better because of all the wonderful things I have seen and read here.
Since we are Thanking folks, mine was ans continues to be, BWD. She was then at D’Kos. After she left there, I wasn’t happy with them any longer. She’s the one that introduced me to TOD. I lurked for over a yrs here, before I finally joined the Oasis built by Lady Chipsticks that is Our Beloved: ❤ TOD -I 🍸 🍸
Paying it forward. I am better off for being here. You always mentioned TOD on Mrs O. You were right!
😯 😯 😯
Pshaw !!!
Ditto
I know. He has blood on his hands because of all the vile things he said about PBO now he has to walk around with body guards now that he unleashed the racist crazies that can’t be consoled or reasoned with. Just goes to show he NEVER believed in the vile he spewed in the first place. PBO told them in 2009 at that GOP retreat, “You won’t be able to govern if you keep up with these lies you are telling your constituients. Once you try to compromise and work with me they will turn on you”.
Sorry …some things require more than an appology
THIS 👇 right here:
Oh yes it does!
Oh, wow.
to be fair, I didn’t see where Paul Ryan the Granny Starver said that “racism doesn’t disqualify Trump for presidency”. That is misleading.
I think the implication is by his action, that is, voting for him after saying his statement is racist.
Chelsea Clinton is now introducing for POTUS! Here he is!!!!
😍😍😍
Arapaho, flagging this for you!
Thank you, FFTX.
Adding to my research list.
Despite tomorrow’s election and the endless pre-election drama will thankfully be over, there’s a lot to consider about what’s going on in the CIA, DOJ, FBI, GOP Congress, and Rudy Giuliani and other shadowy players on the right.
Will continue my research post-convention. Thanks again for posting!
back to work ….
#ALL50
Not bad for a Monday morning.
On short notice. Who else does that?
POTUS just slapped the podium 3 times. Paging Count Von Knowller!
Ha Ha Ha!
Loved hearing our President on this fine Monday! Thank you for all you’ve done for us, sir.
And thank you, Nerdy, for all you’ve done for us – and Chips (Hi, Chips! Love ya!). Thanks for helping us still “make notes” in “our Obama diary”!
I feel like crying, but I’m holding off until January! Have a fine Obama day, TODville!
This!!!!!
Let’s go vote!!!! One down and two more to go, Pres O; we can do it!
May God continue to bless and direct you, sir! ❤ ❤ ❤ PBO ❤ ❤ ❤
That was ❤️ wrenching. Something a little different in his tone today.
Don’t get me started. Near tears! ❤
I am already but stay strong. ❤️
We’ll all be figuratively holding hands throughout this!
We are. When I feel sad I come to TOD and look back over the years and reminisce. It is a comfort.
‘Something a little different in his tone today’.
Yes, Alma-bee, I noticed it too and tho I didn’t try to identify what it was, it made me *feel* …. something….different inside.
Like the end of an era that is magnificent, never to be forgotten.
/happy/ Sigh! So tremendously touched that I was/am a part of it!
Me too. Twice in my lifetime I have been energized and uplifted by a US president and his wife.
😆😆😆
PBO at 56%
WOW! That means the majority of regular and new voters have voted. Once the polls close in CA it will be announced instantaneously HRC won.
So let it be written; so let it be done!
Just a heads-up for those of us who weren’t aware:
Some Trumpkins might think it’s Nov 28.
Is this the Last of Trump or a Preview of His Presidency? And just what the hell is a Mozel Tov cocktail? | The Closer with Keith Olbermann | GQ
This is naughty but funny. See y’all later. Gonna take my mind off politics for a couple hours, and try not to peek!
Ugh! Who spends time thinking about those two doing it? I’m gonna throw up.
Sorry! Normally, I don’t like those kind of anti-woman (and they really are) jokes – but you can see I’m out of control with those two.
Wow!
Heheheheheee
Especially THIS woman. They hate HRC with a vengeance.
Yep

@POTUS in An Arbor, MI
Made my afternoon!!!
Bury him so deep that he cannot be excavated.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/italy-matteo-renzi-obama-facebook_us_5820b3cbe4b0d9ce6fbd83dc
Renzi referred to Obama as “the man who has invested in hope over cynicism, who has raised a generation to try (Yes, we can),” and praised his investment in energy, innovation and health care. He acknowledged that Obama’s foreign policy has not been without controversy, but hailed his policies in Cuba and Iran, and his contribution to the global economy.
The Washington Post’s style section recently named Renzi the “Justin Trudeau of Italy” — but he seems to share more than a fashion sense with his Canadian counterpart. Both leaders have developed something of a “bromance” with Obama.
Italy enjoys close relations with the U.S., and Obama invited Renzi to a state dinner on Oct. 18 — the last formal dinner of Obama’s presidency. At the event, the Italian prime minister declared that he was a “huge fan” of Obama and invited the first family to dine with him in Florence.
PM wrote this in Italian.
My Fav Quote:
“Of course, it will be historians who define the high and low points of his presidency. But in my view, history will be kind to Obama,” Renzi wrote.
New post.

An accomplice who shan’t/won’t/can’t be allowed to succeed! Please, God and the voters.
Why don’t you go and REMOVE IT? Idiot. You are showing signs of fixation, a mental disease.
So impeach me you SOB’s!
I will not miss MK and his stupid counting things and observances that means nothing to anyone else but himself. Surely they can find someone anyone much better who can do what ever the hell he does or is supposed to do.
