First Post: Tuesday, November 8, 2016

Hoo-boy. The Day of Reckoning is upon the Nation now. In the event Don Trump Sr. loses, will we really miss Ms. Hughes, Ms. Pierson, Ms. Manigault, Mr. Lord, Mr. Stone, Hizzoner Giuliani, Speaker Gingrich on the TV nightly?

Kellyanne Conway is one we might pluck for salvation from that group; among them, she seemed to have the most self-awareness and good-naturedness. OK. So who will Hamfisty shill for next, get his Irish up over? All aboard, TrumpTV!

Then again, a Trump Sr. victory means that Kushner & Ailes will have to book some other trip. We report, you decide.

Today’s Stakes Pageantry: None today, but the Mare is flashing on the toteboard at 1-5. We shall see.

Yesterday’s Activity:

Track (Win Mutuels $20+/Gettable)

Finger (0/0) — 70-year-old woman taken to hospital after being trapped under tractor in Bloomfield.

Mountain (4/0) — Local burger joint to conduct exit polling with burgers.

Mahoning (0/0) — 2 women injured following Youngstown shooting.

Keystone (1/0) — Host 76ers blown-out by Utah, 109-84; Jahlil Okafor led Philalala with 15 pts.

Portland (2/2) — Race 5 was contentious, but only High-Octane Chancers and Progressive-Minded Eggheads had Dual Qualifier Romancemediscretly (93, 90) to consider; she rallied to win by 1¼ at $45.60. Race 7 was not contentious, but Dual Qualifier Arigato (91, 85) was good for those aforementioned High-Octane Chancers and Progressive-Minded Eggheads again; he went gate-to-wire to win by a clean half-length at $74-even. Good work.

Turf Paradise (0/0) — Mesa firefighters rescue girl who climbed 35 ft. up a tree.

Zia (1/1) — Race 8 was not contentious, but She Devil had a good-enough 82 on the LifeLiner Spread Column for the High-Octane Chancers and Progressive-Minded Eggheads; she was a forward-force before winning by 3 at $28-straight. Good work.
