Here is my way of wrapping up a week that I must describe as celebratory. About time!
Future letters from me are not going to be as cheery and pleasant. I am going to ask us some tough questions. But for now, I believe it is important to take our victories and be very grateful!
Lately, I have found the Guardian to be a more reliable “newspaper”. It seems to avoid the click bait headlines of the NYTimes and the Washington Post. Mostly, solid reporting. Here is a piece that followed last week’s legendary debate between a master prosecutor and a demented blow hard.
Let us not get cocky or complacent. But I recommend taking a few minutes to celebrate just a little.

And then, even more importantly, if you haven’t seen clips of VP Harris in a follow up rally in North Carolina, please do. I see and hear such energy and joy. I believe that her positivity and presentation will continue to propel the campaign to victory.
Here is the YouTube video. If you want to skip to the meat of it, slide forward to about the 11:15 minute mark. This candidate knows how to work a crowd - and obviously enjoys the process!

My gut has been talking to me, telling me Trump is toast! The thing that worries me is the reaction of the MAGA stalwarts when they see their boy Donny the Loser go down in disgrace…
Jack and I were so pumped after that debate and listening to Harris speak in coherent sentences from the heart and from a place of knowledge gives us hope . She is brilliant and she is a person of integrity we so need desperately in the White House
