this year will be different *fingers crossed*.

A few light taps on your wooden desk are called for but it's in the bag.

The election is just the first hurdle; the next challenge will be post election getting stuff passed.

Please keep your spirits, organization, donating etc. going and please get even more active in making house and senate pass the stuff Obama wants.

And btw the right wing will fight on very hard with all kinds of crazyness even after they lose......
unity-

good to know that when McCain steals the election and Bush declares martial law to prevent protest, we can all go to jail together... I can't think of anyone else but Dan Savage that I would want to be in a prison camp with...

I live in Indiana (eastern time) and last election I had to go to bed without knowing the outcome (they were waiting for Ohio, I think). I want to go to bed early and happy this time.

This, I fear, is the only way to prevent a civil war in America.

Loyal Americans will have to fight to preserve the American dream by any means necessary.

So two good alternates. But the real party is sure to be in the streets after Florida and Ohio get announced for Obama!

They have an amazing selection of micros and wine, including lots of super tasty IPAs. Right next door to Jules Mae's--the designated driver can take a little something home.

The only way to prevent a war between the citizens of the country is the take away the voting rights of 2/3 of them who still believe in democracy and throw them in jail. Better yet, kill them. The remaining minority, who voted for McCain, will then be free to lock themselves in their gated communities, watch their stock tickers plummet ever downward, cannibalize each other and pretend that the rest of the planet does not exist. It's the only thing that will save us now!
