Living in a RED state has some advantages as well as decided disadvantages. I get exposed to Faux Noise almost everywhere I go. The outcome of the upcoming election is a foregone KY conclusion. What is not so clearly defined are the real issues that are being voted on. When JDT originally ran, it was a race between a pseudo-political operative (DJT) and a professional politician, a life long representative of the people. Incredibly, the people chose the cult of DJT personality. During that election it was obvious that the number of home-owner/renter posted signs were the standard political yard sign blitz. All of the MAGA faithful want to have their own sign, their declaration of independence, showing who they stood with. The signs were everywhere. While there are yard signs today, which is to be expected, they are significantly fewer than in previous campaigns. A cynic might suggest that the folks with the signs are truly hardcore MAGA supporters. An optimist might suggest that the fewer signs indicates an a shift in even RED state voters. There appears to be a clear shift from following MAGA blindly to being 'undetermined'. These are the folks who will have to ask themselves, at the moment of decision, "Do we want a democracy or some fascist dictator?"
