Good TL so far. Kind of shocked Republican losses were so high in the Midterm.

I wager there will be a massive impact on the election given Tipper Gore's husband is the Dem nominee. Question is... boost or blowback?

Damn you butterflied the Angry Video Game Nerd away. With the GWOT around the corner I wonder if we might see a massive push towards military schools.

Ironically? Follow old RBG's wished upin path: Roe v. Wade isn't ruled on, or is ruled the other direction. Abortion remains at the state level. The US - with the proliferation of both the ultrasound, cheap birth control and maybe a few other advances, Abortion in the US settles where it did...

Happy to see you back and to hear a dozen updates await!

Given her actions in Ruby Ridge and Waco, I can probably see some quiet (or not) "serves her right" talk to an extant that you'd NEVER see from something like the OKC bombing. Be ironic if McVeigh's trial becomes to certain groups on the right what the OJ Simpson trial was to some groups on the...

As loathesome as the Petrograd regime is, is it wrong I hope the city doesn't get nuked? Given all that was lost in Moscow, St. Petersburg going up in thermonuclear flame would be a loss almost as deep to art and history.

To avoid the distressing Russian parts... I think the GOP rallies behind Colin Powell - they all but begged him to run in 96 in OTL, and while he declined in a time of peace and plenty, here the call to service in dark times may be too great to refuse. Powell/Kemp (he will still need a prolife...

One wonders what the hell is going on among the Tengrists. I'm almost afraid to find out.

I just realized the comissar is Putin. Also what happens to the anime trope that all Americans are blonde blue-eyed if that's now an FEK cliche?

Will Japan's attempt to buy Sakilin and the Kuriles be more successful? It was never seriously considered ny the Russian government in OTL, but here? Enough of the breakaway states might be so strapped for cash Japan could get them for a song.

VERY random thought. One wonders what dark and horrifying twist might happen to the Russian Mail Order Bride industry. As much of a punchline as it was in the 90s, it was a ticket out of a Russia far less hellish than this one, and eventually evolved into a fairly reputable international...

They still had some hope to bleed the Union enough to make them throw in the towl/get Europe involved. It wasn't until Lincoln was re-elected that the defeat of the Confederacy was written in stone. Pretty much every death after that was a sacrifice for Southern pride.
