How Could Sanders Possibly Lose?

On Hardball Friday’s episode was Ted Cruz day with all those writers from the National Review and Glen Beck and Mark LeVin against Trump.   Thursday it was all about Trump’s poll numbers being way up in Iowa over Cruz, with Rubio coming in third there.  Sanders is 51% in Iowa to Clinton’s 43% and Sanders is happy about that.   Nobody would trust Sarah Palin in a cabinet post.  The weather is overcast and they were specific about predicting rain today.   In terms of the Karl Rove ad in favor of Bernie Sanders and against Hillary, my philosophy is that I’ll take support for all comers.  I don’t care the motive.  It’s a statement that they support ME and not that I support THEM.  My only caviat would be to keep the identity of the ad low key and also that there would be no quid pro quo involved and that the support was free will.  There is that old Egyptian saying from “The Ten Commandments” of “It is pleasing to the Gods to see a man honored by his enemies”.   It’s a hell of a lot better than Sarah Palin supporting Donald Trump.  So when you think about it the way things really are- -Democrats have nothing to fear in terms of losing from a Bernie Sanders nomination.  What have the Republican’s got?  You have a choice between a sweaty, fast talking water gulper, or else a parody of a Southern Texas evangelist, or the ding-bat twins of Trump and Palin.  How could Sander’s lose giving that opposition? 

Well now Donald Trump has pushed the envelope further.  He says “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t go down in the polls”.  But if you don’t like that millionaire- - Mike Bloomburg, former New York mayor - - says he’ll throw his hat in the ring if either Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump or Ted Cruz gets nominated. He’ll run as an independent.   The snow storm on the east coast was a little worse than they were expecting.  The Jersey shore is getting wiped out again by a high sea tide thanks to the full moon and all.  Governor Christie returned to the state from campaigning to be a rally point to the people in the storm.  This is Sunday morning and Bill has the TV on.  This is the season of psychic imbalance.  I couldn’t sleep so I got up at five twenty.  I tried to lay down later with my clothes on.  Bill says it was blowing cold air out the vent which explains why it seems cold in this room even after a shower.  The heat just came on and it’s not cold air but it’s not as warm as it should be.  Glen says his room is like ours was last week with the heat going on all the time.  Why can’t Augustine get it right fiddling with the heat in the crawl space.   I was given three cigarettes from Bill this morning and I’ve already smoked two of them.  I was hoping for free coffee from Glenda this morning like I got yesterday.   I got medication from Tom at six and got cough medicine, and I’m almost out of that.  Last night I got medication from Donnie and Bill gave me his sandwich.  The Chicago Bulls beat the Cleveland Cavileers in Cleveland last night on KABC.   Glen had made it clear he was out of coffee so I didn’t even try.  I watched the Mc Laughlin group.  The first topic was Sarah Palin’s endorsement of trump.  Other topics were briefer but I fell asleep.  After the game was over I watched CSI or something on CBS. 

[Eight Days Ago] Rhapsody in Black featured January of 1954.  The problem is that they repeated four songs they had from October of 1953.  These were “Money Honey”, “Hole in the Wall” “My TV Mama with a big wide screen” by Joe Turner- - and “My soul’s on fire but I had my fun” by Le Verne Baker.  The best song they played all day was “Boogy Woogy” or whatever by Clyde Mc Phatter and the Drifters.  There was that coffin song "My jealous boyfriend has one just your size".  I think if they’d done January of 1955, which seemed more logical to me for them to do- - but Bill Gardner runs the show.

I had an idea for a blog entry of somewhat reorganizing and expanding our own “Tarot Card Deck”.  But I’m not going to bore my readers with it at this time except to say that Mal Evans wants to expand the thing to 26 cards for every letter of the English alphabet, after all we’re Englishmen and not Jews. The four bonus groups have already been picked out.   It will be eight long days till I get paid again.  Here is how the whole ZAC Tarot card deck breaks down.  Down below is a past of the posting from August of 2007, many long moons ago.  I've changed three groups since then.  I noted when this list was compiled we had "Robin Trower" as an alternate "The Sun" instead of The Jefferson Airplane".  Since the spring of 1980 Trower's name has cropped up on "The Sun" card occasionally.  We substituted Steely Dan in position thirteen and I'll leave it to you the group or artist we kicked out to make room for him.  We just now added "Earth Wind and Fire" in "Temperance" or position number eleven.  Guessing the origional group here will take some doing.  You better search it for yourselves.  OK Glen Fry added his two cents in to retain "Jefferson Airplane" in "The Sun" position twenty.  After reviewing every Jefferson Airplane album- - Fry concluded that "The music is really good" and deserves to stay.   We were going to replace them with "The Doors" but now we have other plans.  Mal Evans expanded the ZAC Tarot deck to 26 to conform to the Sirius A alphabet, which is basically English letters.  We needed four more groups and we turned to disciples of another dead rock star, Ron James Dio for that.  We needed four groups and one could say we used a small constintuancy for selecting them.  They are Black Sabbath, Ron Dio, Deep Purple, and the Doors.  These represent in the I Ching, "Heaven and Earth", "The oldest son and daughter", "the middle son and daughter", and "the youngest son and daughter".   The oldest son is thunder and lightning.  The oldest daughter is the tree or "wood".   This is a solid line with two broken lines on top of it in the I Ching.  When you put these triagrams on the back of a card however- - you have to put "the tree" upside down, so you will know when you get "the tree" you have an "upside down" Tarot card- - because whether a card is upside down or right side up is significant in the Tarot.  Capish?  We classify this whole "card" however Source - - Life.  Pink is the lightning and green is the tree.  The mother and father are as Fermion verses Bozon.  This is for Black Sabbath. The colors are black, or south for the earth, and white and north for Heaven.  For Deep Purple we have a correction.  The correct designation is "Follow - Oppose" because the water is the middle son hence masculine hence precedes the feminine, fire, which is the middle daughter.  So the next line or so is now inopperative but we'll leave it in to let you see our error (in brackets) that one of you readers pointed out.  (the middle offsprings) [ we call this "Lead - Follow" or east verses west.  Ron Dio himself came up with the idea of the word "Lead". ]  This differs from the Romulan where they have "Confront" referring to "the east" (in the Bible the really horrible battles always seem to come from the east) verses "Follow" so in Romulan West is the better direction.   We have red for fire and terquoise for "the waters".  Finally we have the Doors, where we have Inside - Outside, or the Mountain (youngest son) verses the Lake (youngest daughter).  The colors here are gold for the mountain and blue for the lake.  These allies from "The rainbow planet" are a constituancy Mal Evans is using in a hope to somehow regain his former power.  Here are the other cards of "The Major Arcena".
