According to the QAnons, "Q" is an anonymous individual who's supposed to have Q-clearance.

Qanon is similar to another conspiracy in the 1820s and 30s called the Anti Masonic Party. They nominated a candidate for president in 1832 and won seats in the House from 1828 to 1838.

popular misspelling. It's actually QueueAnon, as in another word for a line. It's short for Queues Anonymous, which like AA and NA, is a 12 step program to help people stop being addicted to waiting in line.

The conspiracy theory nonsense is all just a misconception.

Huh, if you'd told me months ago that Rudy Giuliani of all people would be the one to humanize Joe Biden for me, I'd have laughed in your face.

I don't know. The last poll I saw, although it was admittedly about three weeks ago, showed Perdue leading.

Yes, definitely. It'll be interesting to see polls over the next few days with the effects of insulting Kamala Harris. We could see Ossoff leading with some time.

I've gotten a lot of pieces of mail that have sounded very accusational and angry about me not voting in 2018.

If they don't remove my name from the voter roles as a form of suppression this time, sure.
