Americans are slow learners with very short attention spans.
Republicans wreck the economy and the Democrats come in and clean it up. Because the voters don’t think they are doing it fast enough, they throw them out.
This time, they may have wrecked Democracy.

I’ve only posted one GFM, and it’s my intention never to post another. But this one is close to my heart. I know the family personally and have visited with them countless times. If you can help out, it would be great. If not, I completely understand - but a retweet is free.

Eight months ago, Rep. Sylvester Turner D-TX died. His seat in the U.S. House is still vacant. On Tuesday, two Dems advanced to a runoff for that Houston-area seat. When is the runoff?? We don't know.
That runoff date still must be set by Gov. Greg Abbott.
