The Beagle Has Landed

A few pre-midterms thoughts to start the week:

~Yesterday the last undecided voter in America made up her mind: bigshot Michigan Democrat Haley Stevens announced she'd be voting for the Republican. Which isn't usually the way it goes: it's almost like the Bush family faxed her the playbook upside down. However, the Dems have cunningly neutralised such defections by signing up the dead - and not just deceased humans:

'Biscuit' the dog is latest dead felon to get their voting rights back from Spanberger, confused owner says

A Southside Virginia lawmaker is demanding an investigation after a constituent received an official rights-restoration certificate for his dog, Biscuit, a beagle-hound mix from Goochland County that died about five years ago...

Well, okay. I can get behind votes for dead beagle-hound mixes, especially after the psychotic Fauci's beaglecide. But I don't want some shih tzu or chow-chow flying into the Northern Mariana Islands and dropping an anchor puppy.

If the need to enroll canine corpses suggests that Democrats are not quite as confident as the polls might warrant, well, PBS is already prepping the battle-space:

If you go to bed on election night and don't know who won a midterm congressional race, that's normal. And if you wake up the next morning and find that a candidate who was behind hours earlier has since pulled ahead, that's normal, too.

The beagles are DEAD. How did effer Fauci end their lives.

If you haven’t read about the “research” he funded, better not to. I’d rather not have this stuff in my head. But I hope in the afterlife that Fauci gets to experience it.

My Beagle currently resides in doggie heaven. He was a good boy, hopefully he has taken advantage of early voting too.
