Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Supposedly this is the biggest mid-term voter turnout since '72. Or so a Republican whatsit said to Wonkette....

NBC is calling the MD governor's race for O'Malley

Hrm. Hope. 30 minutes ago, it wasn't. I think it largely depends on Baltimore City and Montgomery County. I'll wake up to it, uh huh. NO TV.

Is it true that Crist is homosexual?

The Associated Press has just posted a piece on its exit polls, and just like CNN's exit polls found, AP is finding that corruption is a key issue driving voters today. AP's exit numbers are also finding a surprisingly high number of evangelicals going Dem, a trend that many political analysts noted early in the cycle:

Those early exit polls also showed that three in four voters said corruption was very important to their vote, and they tended to vote Democratic. In a sign of a dispirited GOP base, most white evangelicals said corruption was very important to their vote — and almost a third of them turned to the Democrats.

Our wings are not tired.

Is it true that Crist is homosexual?

Probably. Of course, his base will be totally shocked. That will be fun.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Suspect it is all about available properties in an area in relation to the nearest district line.

I suspect you are quite right on this. My apartment building is the dividing line between precincts. It's just annoying to drive by my house and see the polling place RIGHT THERE and have to keep going to get to where I vote.

Has he done his speech yet? It would be awesomely hilarious if he came out and reversed his stance on all gay issues.

I've been hearing a lot lately about a big green movement with evangelicals, which I find very interesting.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! Why does Tim Rssert insist on using that damn tiny whiteboard?!?!?

Was PA an officially red state?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I got all the way to post #8345 before I realised that Theo hadn't dropped an aitch from the name. I could stand to be a wee bit more up on the news. Or a wee bit more lying down.
