Gleaning Facebook: Congratulations to Republican Friends

Congratulations from this Democrat to my Republican friends tonight who are celebrating a big victory as expected. Not as large as my worst fears, thank goodness, nor as small as my best hopes, but definitely a big victory.

God bless our wonderful democracy where we can disagree peaceably.

Neal Brackett: We will see... with the so called "Rinos" and "Dinos" gone most of the middle ground is gone.....

Terrell Shaw:Yes, I wrote a sizable comment last night about the loss of the moderates, but I must have lost it somehow. Gerrymandering (by BOTH parties, sometimes in concert) and polarized primaries along with election results like last night's leave independents and moderates of both parties with not enough wiggle room for compromise and negotiation.

Ray Langley: I still ask my Republicans friends, "What programs will you cut. You are going to have too, if you do what you say you're going to do. All I'm asking is just name one program.
