On "THAT DAY" and "THAT HEADLINE," I'm posting Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers dancing videos all day long

I don't know if we will WAKE UP to the good news or if it will happen while we're going about our everyday activities.

But when I see THAT HEADLINE, I'm going to go the NON-VERBAL POSTING ROUTE.

LOTS of CLIPS of Fred & Ginger.

DANCING.

And I will be dancing along with them.

Well, maybe hammered isn't quite the word; a champagne-drunk is one of the more pleasant ways of being intoxicated. But we're going all-in on the celebrating.

trust me, you'll be able to find the place. I'm talking searchlights flashing across the sky, fireworks, a band, jet flyovers, high-kicking Rockettes lining the road, you name it.

Even if TSF kicks the bucket before then, Repugs will still be in control of the White House (and TSF's potential replacements are WORSE in many ways).

But on that date, they will ALL be gone.
