Answered Prayers?

Could it be? Could Benjamin Netanyahu really not have been able to achieve a majority government in Israeli's election today?

Ohpleaseohpleaseohplease let it be true!

Netanyahu is one of the world leaders we most despise. (You don't have to ask who's first on the list.) And if the exit polls that we're seeing in Israel hold, it'll be interesting to observe Bibi's behavior. We expect it to be extraordinarily Trumpian — whining, throwing tantrums, blaming the press, alleging voter fraud. There are hints that he's already started. It will surely foreshadow Benedict Donald's reaction should we defeat him next year.

But we're waiting for the real stuff. A lot of people lie to exit pollsters.

By the way, turnout in Israel today was close to 70 percent. You know, if we could get anywhere close to that in 2020, all will be right with the world. We cats PURR.
