The declaration that Biden has won is premature. This thing hasn't
really gotten started yet.
Judges don't hold court on the weekends.

Somehow I’m reminded of the movie The Man Who Shot Liberty
Valance. Set in the fading days of the old west with
territories becoming states and deciding who to elect as
their representatives. Should it be Jimmy Stewart the
righteous lawyer, or Lee Marvin the outlaw gang leader? The
old fashioned idea that you sent the brightest and best
educated person to Washington to represent you. Hah!
Politicians are not held in great esteem today, and we would
probably vote for Liberty Valance. I assume everyone has
seen the movie. It’s an old John Ford western, in fact he
shot it in B&W, but it’s a must see. Look at the cast –
Jimmy Stewart, John Wayne, Lee Marvin, Vera Miles, Andy
Devine, Edmond O’Brien, John Caradine, Lee Van Cleef.
