BEST TICKET BY FAR!
I was up all night with you folks and now I've rested and come back to play!

Now, this is perhaps the smartest ticket we've put up in a long while. I'm gonna put on my historical referencing sentimental hat and compare this ticket to JFK and LBJ. I know, I know. But Biden kinda even LOOKS like LBJ in my opinion. He will give Congress "the treatment" and we will be all good!

Repukes are scared shitless right now. They don't know what the hell to do. Let's enjoy this moment! History in the making, y'all!

1. You better rethink your LBJ comparison
Everyone knows that LBJ was part of what got JFK "neutralized."

3. I don't buy into that.
I look at the good in LBJ. Civil Rights Act of 1964, VOting Rights Act of 1965, so on and so on!

4. I look at LBJ the same way. He ramped up Vietnam, but without him
ramming it through congress, the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act might never have happened.

2. Looks like LBJ? Yikes!
I had a friend who owned a bloodhound he named "LBJ" for obvious reasons.
