I'm Feeling Pretty Good

Maybe it's the post-debate poll crash for Trump.

Maybe it's that Biden is looking quite presidential with his Gettysburg Address today.

Maybe it's that Trump's own policy on the pandemic has backfired to the point that everyone in government is getting CV-19 as a live demonstration of a bad policy failing right before the eyes of America.

Maybe it's every time Trump tweets now, he crashes the markets. Bigly.

Maybe it's that over 4 million Americans have voted already, breaking all kinds of records and with data showing that it's at *least* 2-to-1 Democrats with Independents even outnumbering Republicans.

Maybe it's all of that.

But I'm feeling good. Not complacent. Not happy. I'm fearful too many more Americans will die before the end of the year, and I very well could be one of them. And I'm still panicking that we must GOTV like never before.

And still... somehow, miraculously, I am feeling pretty good.
