I slept in and took a morning off yesterday after feeling sick the night before. Asked the boss if I can go home early that night. Later thought - it's ten fifteen at night, I'm a volunteer, and I'm asking if it's ok if I leave 'early'. Another eighteen days.
If it's true and holds, Mississippi and Georgia aren't far behind, Indiana will definitely flip, Obama is looking at 400+ EVs, and I'll have to go have a quiet lie down.
This is not the election map to which I've grown accustomed.
What the hell is going on out there?
Indiana and Ohio move very slowly. I don't think Indiana's going to come through in the end. I've been skeptical of Ohio all year, even though I'm leaning towards a small win for Obama simply because of the blowouts in Michigan and Pennsylvania coupled with a good few polls showing Obama with a decent lead in OH.
Speaking of Ohio...
BIG NEWS: The Supreme Court has thrown out the GOP's attempt to suppress the vote in Ohio. I'm curious to see how the vote broke down. Liberal justices + Kennedy? Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin
NC first: One day of early voting, and the Tar Heels are already up to 174,000. 52% are Dems (compared with 45% of registered voters), 32% Reps (compared with 32% of RVs), 16% Indies (compared with 22% of RVs). 25.8% are black (compared with 21% of RVs).
Similar pattern in Georgia. Black folks are 35.8% of the 636,000 voters so far. So, in both cases, we're seeing black folks running 5-7 points ahead of their proportion of RVs. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin
Even Pentacostals have trailing-edge members that drift into sanity. :-)
You could probably play bell curve identity pin ball - drop in a meme or a talking point just so and it will spend the next few weeks ricocheting around pulling floaters out of some groups and into other groups.
I suppose this isn't far from what happens already, but if you had some cool graphics and bells it would be easier to get the high score.
Until he called the wrong guy's girlfriend a whore and got hit in the face with a large Styrofoam cup of coke. Everybody laughed. Even the cops got a kick out of it and refused to do anything. ("Well, ya called his girl a whore!") Didn't see him again after that. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin
Apparently it's a firm protecting other positions and hedging other investments, whatever that means. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin
One rather surprising thing I've run into here are pentacostals who are strongly feminist, pro-choice, pro gay marriage, pro left wing econ policies, and otherwise resemble the secular liberals I meet in NYC, both in views on policy and personal life, but are born again pentacostal. Didn't know they existed.
Rep. Daryl Pace, R_Siloam Springs....Pace described the board as the "biggest bunch of not-getting-along people I've ever encountered except for my own Baptist Chruch."
