U.S. Election map by counties.

Bosco insisted on wearing his ladybug costume long after the ghosts, goblins and fairies of Halloween had drifted off. Perhaps it comforts him in anticipation of political dread.
Bean is as always. Sober, loyal and trusting. He assures me facts are facts.
Bean is Bean is Bean is Bean.

Speaking of facts, check out politifact to set aside rhetoric from reality. Dogs are honest in their feelings in immediate and usually accurate assessments of the moment. Would that politicians could learn that philosophy as well.
