A win for work-ethic?

Everybody is going to walk away from the election with a different "message".

There were lots of moving parts and both sides, at times, made sub-optimal decisions.

One enabler for Trump was his incredible work-ethic. I think that energized everybody in his campaign.

On the other hand, first Biden and then Harris never really set that tone. Short days. Not mixing with the public. Cutting off appearances before the tough questions were asked. They acted like "the fix was in" and that all they had to do was go through the motions.

In a way, it was like the wide-receiver who celebrates before punching through the plane that defines the end-zone, only to be overtaken by a defender and having the ball stripped from his arms.

If there is one message worth taking from the election in this cynical, toxic age...it is that prayers and work-ethic still matter.
