I guess I don’t have a dog in this race (though we’re all going to be affected), but I know Hillary and want her to win – and agree with Scott in relation to his key point. However, while I absolutely think Hillary should be optimistic and focus on the issues, *someone* needs to point out the absurdities of Trump’s platform, and the almost immeasurable dangers we would face were he to win. This, as Obama said yesterday, is not an ordinary election.

We don’t need to mention his hair however. Or not much.
