Thank You
The Georgia race was not about White people convincing other White people to vote for the Black guy. Black people flexed their power. Stacey convinced them to go to church and they did.
When I first heard Obama’s now famous senate speech, I knew he was headed for the political top. The same for Stacey Abrams. We’ll be calling her Senator Abrams or Governor Abrams or President Abrams some day soon.
While Trump files lawsuits and tweets insults at Governor Kemp, Stacey is enjoying mountains of awe, gratitude, and irony.

You have every right and reason to be so inclined…
She’s earned all the love, admiration, and respect that will come to her…

What she accomplished for her country in this election is incalculable.

This seems like a million years ago! The morning began so wonderfully, so optimistically, with hope and joy–we’d just won the senate. By dinnertime, things were as crazy as I’ve ever seen them in this country.

She has been added to my personal pantheon of heroes, joining the likes of Frances Perkins. I’ve even had to consider adding a bunch of Republicans who rose above themselves to confront an evil man and prevent him from stealing an election from its rightful owners, which of course would be we, the people….or is that us?

I did not want to write too much about her as I know everyone here knows exactly who she is and what she’s accomplished, but I wanted to add that I think we also owe her for Biden’s win in Georgia. She was being courted heavily to run for the senate but declined so she could focus on voter registration. I hope she’ll run against Kemp in 2022 and beat him by hundreds of percents. It would be the best revenge.

Always write to the cheap seats. That’s what I always do. Okay, maybe I am too multi-syllabic for the knuckle draggers, but I try to struggle down to their level.
