"Writing is a skill, not a talent, and thus one's ability as a writer can be improved by thoughtful effort.

Will the last Republican voter leaving the Big Tent please turn out the lights?
Whoever wins the presidency this November, it's all but a slam dunk they'll be working with a Democratic Congress. And it probably will be a stronger Democratic majority with more votes than it has today. Even normally optimistic Republicans conceded in recent days that the landscape is stacked against them. . . .

Yeah, Tom. That "large segment" called voters.
"It should be a really good Democratic year in both chambers," said Stuart Rothenberg, editor of the Rothenberg Political Report. He's one of the three most authoritative nonpartisan voices on congressional races, along with Charles Cook of the Cook Political Report and Larry Sabato, the director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia. They all predict that Democrats will add to their majorities in the House by six to 20 seats and in the Senate by two to five seats.
OK, everybody, sing along:
