The Kavanaugh thing has unwound pretty much as I predicted, a fact from which I take no satifaction. I think it is entirely likely that future historians (if they are allowed to write honest histories) will date the final downfall of our form of government to this date. It is most probable that this Supreme Court will overturn any progressive legislation passed from this day forward, and may well go back and strike down some of the legislation we’ve taken for granted.
We are an oligarchy now, or may very well be. It’s possible that we can avoid that fate if we take both the House and Senate, but that requires good turnout, so we can’t let our probable fate discourage us. Vote now, or we may never get a meaningful vote again.
