August 9, night of the local recall. We lose big. GOP spends $30 million on just one rural senate district race. Yet the energy and spirit at the "losing" headquarters is so positive, you get the sense we won.
August 10, day after the recalls of Republicans. Major depression. We took away two Republican Senate seats, but missed by one on reclaiming a Democratic majority to block Walker's extreme right wing/ Tea Party agenda.
August 16, night of the recalls of Democrats. We win! GOP gets 0, nothing. Even in conservative up north, where our cabin is surrounded by posters for the Tea Party woman who compares teachers to Nazis, the Democrat still wins.
One week, one month later: We win 2, GOP loses 2, we lose 0. If a single moderate Republican switches sides on a Tea Party proposal, it is blocked. Walker now talks about talking with Dems. Local people talk about recalling Walker. Recall Walker bumper stickers now start appearing. Bottom line: Rome wasn't rebuilt in a day. The struggle over the 21st century keeps going. Photo: the volunteer office is packed, energy high, even losing that night.
"Bottom line: Rome wasn't rebuilt in a day. The struggle over the 21st century keeps going."
Don't you wish you could just build your business and be with your family and not have to bang your head against the wall to get maybe half of what you need, if you are lucky?

Perhaps more important, I believe that the methods used in this analysis of the Voynich mystery can be applied to difficult questions in other areas.
