I am excited that I did win the Peace Prize but waking me up at 3 AM to tell me, pretty rude.

I was so spoiled in 2008 where by 9am the word was already to me at the local Obama Campaign office that it was a lock. Enough of the turnout we had worked so hard for had already shown up

Polls told me Donald Trump was going to lose in 2015 and 2024

I trust nothing until the polls close.

Keep pusing to get the bastards out and no relaxing on good poll numbers
