The Democratic Party knows what it wants
And deserves to get it good and hard.
Last night was the (well, not mid-term elections — those are next year — “quarter-term” elections?) and the areas that thought that Kamala Harris was a damned fine pick for POTUS last cycle stayed Blue. That should not have been a big surprise to anyone with a licence to adult.
In Newt Yack City, a CAIR1-funded communist Democratic Socialist is now mayor.
Whee. As long-time readers of my little scribblings have probably already figured out, I doubt that Mamdani will be as bad as his detractors say; but I damned sure don’t think he’s going to be all that his supporters want him to be.
Newt Yack City has been going head-first into the khazi for years. Mamdani, with his standard-issue Democrat Socialist ideas2 of blended communism and unicorn-fart-fueled idealism3, isn’t going to slow that trend down any — odds are that it’ll speed up.
And I find that I really don’t care — other than I don’t want the cancer that is socialism/communism to metastasize to red states. If you voted for Mamdani, and you decide to flee to Texas or Tennessee after it bites you on the arse, you should be stopped at the State line, horse-whipped, and forcibly kicked back to Newt Yack City.
Y’all voted to turn your city into a cess-pit — own it, and wallow in it. Be proud of your vote!
In Virginia, Democrats decided that they were perfectly okay with a candidate who called for the murder of the children of political opponents. Not only that, but Democratic voters decided that a man who wished that the children of a political opponent be shot in the face in front of their parents was a damned fine candidate for the top law enforcement position in Virginia.
I don’t want to hear a Democrat snivel at me about “political violence” ever again. It’s quite obvious from the Virginia Attorney-General election that Democrats think that calling for “political violence” is an Evil Bad Thing when it’s directed at them, but Business As Usual and Completely Legitimate when they do it against anyone else.
Is anyone on the conservative side of the political spectrum going to learn from this? Are they going to figure out that the Leftists are perfectly4 fine5 with violence, as long as they’re the ones wielding it?
We’ll see, but the cynical side of me is snorting.
Blue Areas stayed Blue. Voters who thought that Kamala Harris was the best thing since sliced bread … voted that way again.
Conservatives are spinning this as a strategic victory, that voters will see the destruction wrought by these idiots and wreck the Democrat party in the mid-term elections next year.
To quote H.L. Mencken: “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”
Given the proven track record of the Republican party at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, I’m less sanguine about that, but maybe I’ll be surprised for once.
I’m betting that once the voters have figured out how badly they voted to bugger themselves, they’ll either flee to another State6, or bleat piteously for a God-Emperor to wave regally and unilaterally un-bugger them.
Pfagh.
Personally, what the damage that voters in Newt Yack City and Virginia do to themselves means very little to me — other than when the people who self-inflict socialism upon themselves, flee to free States, but bring their stupid political ideas with them — so I’m going to sit on my front porch in Small Town Texas, mutter sulphurously into my coffee, buy another gun, more ammunition, and get some more training in Applied Social Violence.
We have frequent elections, and every time we hold an election one side is badly surprised — the Pendulum of Politics is always swinging. After all, don’t forget that the Democrats took it in the neck during the last election for POTUS. The conservatives took the brass ring last time; the leftists took it this time. That is the way of things.
In the long run it’s going to be ok,7 Gentle Readers.

Bringing their stupid, moronic, idiot ideas with them.
Offer void in Newt Yack City, Virginia, and other places infected with Democratic Socialists.
When it fails, I just don’t want to bail out NYC or VA. I want someone to say actions now consequences. Figure it out yourself.
Republicans always forget they have to vote more often than every 4 years for president or at least every 2 years for federal offices. That's why these parasitic infestations keep growing at the local, county and state level. Conservatives will not show up to stop them from ruining their states and towns. That's what infuriates me. Now WV needs these people to still see us as banjo infested hick country filled with cannibalistic hillbillies and bigfoot lest they ruin it with more second homes and vacation properties in their liberal enclaves.
