Scare tactics and lies suck donkley balls.

Rachel Maddow rocks.

anxious Steph makes me laugh.

I am going to get no work done today. ok, not true. I have a meeting in 25 min. and I am going to enter invoices into a spreadsheet, but I am doing no Thinking work today.

I am going to be so emotional tonight - either way. voting with mac was emotional. I am super mad that our polling place does not give out "I voted" stickers. I thought I was going to get exit polled, but the pollers were only polling asian-american voters.

Bad timing to the max (and bad taste):

Perhaps the most ill-timed press release of the 2008 campaign arrived shortly after 1:30 p.m. today, sent by the Republican National Committee.

The release forwarded word that the California Republican Party filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission, in part because of a visit Sen. Barack Obama made to his dying grandmother.

"Obama for America violated federal law by converting its campaign funds to Senator Obama's personal use," the release stated. "Senator Obama recently traveled to Hawaii to visit his sick grandmother. This was the right thing for any grandson to do -- at his own expense -- but it was not travel that his campaign may fund."

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

wow, I can't believe that the repubs would try to fool old people!

My place had no line, but I think that the places were set up before urban flight, becausethere are at least 4 within walking distance of my house!

Where I grew up there was one spot for the whole town; and it was the biggest town in the county!

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

FiveThirtyEight sez:

McCain's chances of victory are estimated at 1.9 percent, their lowest total of the year.

Of course, that was last night. A lot can change in... a day.

The CBC is having special election coverage tonight. I think they're way more excited about this election than they were about our own election a few weeks ago.

The subtext of this message: The world is watching America, don't screw this one up!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

When I early voted last week - they had run out of the "I voted" stickers. As annoyed as I was, I took that as a good sign.

It is very strange living in a swing state that actually seems to be swinging in the right direction. Come on Colorado - you can do it!!!!
