Mornings like this are meant to be savored. Clear blue sky outside?-check. Fresh coffee ready?-check. S.O. still asleep and its quiet in the house?-check. Shopping Mall Times whining about Alabama losing?-check. It’s a great day in the neighborhood. ( And I don’t even like South Carolina that much-but any port

I pointed this out before-one of the key elements of Teabag strategy, if it can be called that, is based on a numbers game. Getting all of their folks out-who really don’t represent a majority of Americans-and keeping the rest of us at home. America has one of the most miserable
