Found this fine butterfly one the Asylum grounds this afternoon. This warm afternoon. The high was 87°.
The last of the unpresidential debate tonight. What can I say? How did this happen? Was it like this in 1860? How about 1856?

Hi Peg, based on my recollection of campaigns of the past the similarity of the 1824 and carryover to 1828 seems comparable.
The 24 is more closely aligned to the Bush 43 Al Gore contest, not the same but similar. 1828 was a real humdinger.Both of those early contests are interesting to read about.
Enjoy your stay in Kona Hawaii. Bob Z.
