Larry Schweikart, our own 'LS', kept assuring us -- often with hard facts and polling information -- the we would win. He would post little 'insider baseball' tidbits that gave me -- among other people -- hope. In the onslaught of biased polling, I became rather dispirited. I fully intended to vote no matter what, but I went into the evening almost convinced ClinSatan would steal it. However, during the election itself, he kept popping up and telling us to stop being so *wrecked* every time a state flipped back to Dem.
I kept looking up LS, and reading his material. He gave me hope when I felt hopeless.
This thread is intended to honor a great and intelligent Freeper, Mr. LS.
Sir, thank you for all you do. I am honored to call you 'FRiend'.
Yes!!!!!!
THANK YOU LS for all you do for us. What a campaign, you kept me sane. I am so glad you are a member of the Free Republic family. You are a champion and all your efforts are greatly appreciated!
You and me both. Bill Mitchell and I would be like Butch Cassidy and Sundance holed up against the Columbian Army.
BTW, all.
If you don’t know, fieldmarshaldj knows more about American elections and historical trends than anyone I know, including myself. He can tell you how a precinct in Pigs Knuckles Arkansas voted in the 1954 midterm.
Oh, gee whiz, let’s not go that far ! :-P
(BTW, since AR didn’t start voting GOP from the 19th century until the 1960s for the most part, if “Pigs Knuckles” was outside of the Ozarks, it’s a pretty forgone conclusion they stuck with the Dems in ‘54) ;-D
I love you LS.
Are we having a Freeper Ball?
That one in 2000 was better than the official ball.
Thank you LS!
Not only for the poll information but for all of your insight throughout the campaign.
Agreed. We truly appreciate your efforts!!!
Thank you, LS. I probably would have turned in for an early night if it wasn’t for your FReepMail and posts giving us re-assurance.
Still some snarks out there who were massively wrong who haven’t yet apologized.
LOL
From a historical perspective, Trump just broke a 44-president record.
Trump displaces George Washington as the inflation-adjusted wealthiest President of the United States.

Yes, thank you!
I totally agree! LS posts are what got me through the last few months with my sanity intact. Thanks again, Larry!
LS is a rockstar! Thank you!
I dunno, inheritance wise FDR probably was richer than GW.

Sorry, the message was for him.
Forgot to get his LS in the address. :)
Everyone should follow Larry’s Twitter page. Great info and insights from him there as well. @LarrySchweikart
