South Carolina voters have selected Darline Graham as the Republican primary winner, thereby cementing their position as among the least democratic voters in America. Otherwise, why would they choose someone who admits she knows nothing about foreign policy? Doesn't know Darlene.

My friend said she's tuned out politics since Trump 2.0. I just looked at her. But today I'm thinking she makes a good hostage. Another friend told me he doesn't care if they round up people of color so long as they leave him alone. I explained that's not how it works. I know... Get better friends.

Graham Platner isn't lying about his past. He won't be worse than Susan Collins, who has abused, even causing deaths, of more women just by her vote on Kavanaugh for SC or health care. He won't be worse than Fetterman. How about interviewing more on his politics and less on his past?

A limited number of politicians near me are finally waking up to the fact that springtime roadway potholes are a serious quality of life issue that is within our ability to control. Money is available and training is ongoing. Now if only commercial driveways owners would do the same. 1 of 2.

Aren't convicted felons still barred from voting in Florida unless they have completed all parts of their sentences? Has Trump completed all parts of his 37 felony convictions? It's been reported he recently voted by mail despite his dislike of mail in ballots. Not a lawyer, just asking.

After a week of news warnings to take precautions with water pipes to prevent damage, it got down to 25f here last night. Numerous water leaks today from pipes burst after freezing. Also frozen plants. I just hope the same cold warnings were better heeded for pets and vulnerable people.
