After getting a review of new and unpronounceable whiskies out of the way (such as the one posted here) along with the miseries of the week just past that compel several drams of whisky, "Lucretia" and I had planned to talk about an obscure but profound essay from way back in 1973 that explores the serious philosophical roots of how today's progressive left is best explained by the left's formal commitment to snobbery. No really—we were! We had a whole seminar on "snobbish snobology" ready to go (is there a more fitting angle for single-malt whisky fanatics?), but we got diverted to—what else?—the election postgame show.
Among our questions and issues: What needs to be surveyed to make out a prima facia case of election fraud? And what kind of evidence is necessary to prove it? Given the low and continually falling trust in our leaders and institutions, is it any wonder that people (including apparently one-third of Democrats according to one poll) don't think this election was on the up-and-up? We kick around the possibilities, and then ask our listeners: would you like us to do a live taping of the podcast next week? We could have a virtual happy hour under the new lockdown, though of course you'd have to bring your own whisky. Let us know.

I can say definitively that at least 1/12th of your Ricochet listeners love you both! Happy Thanksgiving!

Hmm...You both failed to ask what I think is an extraordinarily important question: While Rudy has not been bothered by the if not 'loose screw' image recently--(loosening screw ?)--- I am totally perplexed as to WHY folks with the reputation of Sidney Powell and Lin Wood are going Wayyy wayyyy out on the 'if I'm wrong it's career suicide" limb with the absolute declarative sentences that have characterized their version of the vote. If they're right they are great American heroes...if not they will rightfully be covered in ignominy. People who DO know the aforementioned principals and who remain admirers of them through at least yesterday is what triggers my repeating the question...
Either way, the answer will be brutal.
And,YES---Happy Thanksgiving. (We're still waiting for the RSVPs from the Cuomos and Newsoms---will advise.)

I figured out who Lucretia is, and assume anyone else who tried to has also. So, probably doesn't matter if she is behind a screen. But, I vote to keep her secret for fun.

So I should believe in the existence of the Hammer now, how?
