THOMAS SOWELL: Misinformed should stay home and not vote on election day. (Neal Cavuto: And that would be all MSNBC watchers.)

GALLUP: a majority of Americans believe concealed carry makes the United States safer.

THE ANTI-SCIENCE CANDIDATE ... Bernie Sanders. I think 'pseudo-science' (pronounced psilly-science) is a more accurate descriptor, not just of Bernie Sanders, but of progressives generally.

I'm reminded of the tagline contemptuously applied to evangelicals not that long ago ("The Bible said it, I believe it, and that's all there is to it."). With a simple change of 'Bible' to whatever the Holy Book of progressivism is, it would accurately describe the mind of the 'modern' progressive.

IT EXPLAINS ZOMBIES AND DEMOCRATS: Tapeworms living inside people's brains.

PROTECTION MONEY: More CEOs donate to Clinton than to any GOP candidate.

AND RUSSIA. You forgot Russia.

THOMAS SOWELL: Politician's words, weasel words.

POWERLINE: The only 'global warming' chart you need.

PRO-BUSH PAC LEADER: Trump nothing but a 'false zombie front-runner'. The Bush campaign is whistling past the cemetary....

THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING PRESIDENT:

Heh.

BERNIE SANDERS: light on 'Democratic' and heavy on 'Socialism'.

REALLY? Drugmakers and insurers are Hillary's enemies?

JEFF JACOBY: Make redistricting better by making it color-blind. A measure I've long advocated.

AUTUMN LEAVES 2015:

I've started my 2015 collection of weekly pictures of our house as the leaves begin to change. While the leaves are falling steadily (I have to clear the driveway daily), not much has happened in terms of color change. Here's the first picture, taken last Wednesday:

And here's today's picture:

Except for sun angle, there's very little change in color. But there's a very large change in the number of fallen leaves I've had to blow away. I suspect this is going to be a disappointing year for colors.

WEBB WITHDRAWS: His views have essentially no place in the Democratic Party today.

Jim Webb is the last standing member of the real Democrat party; today's version should more honestly be named the Socialist Party (but of course they're not honest).

UPDATE: A worthy candidate without a constituency.

#BLACK LIVES MATTER:

Martha Washington - our latest adoptee.
