LET'S ROLL!!!
>> I have not voted, yet.
>> Mrs. Chairman and I will tonight.
>> Polling data says that there will be two votes from our household for Allen.
I will be voting after my 12:45 doctor's appointment, Lord willing, when I get some of these bandages off.
Voting straight Republican (with one exception)....
..Crist did not graciously reflect the Republican Party last night with his snub of the President....it's been all over the news.
..but I believe it will hurt him ...not them.
Voted approximately 50 minutes ago. Charles Boustany is going back to Washington, baby, YEAH! ;^)
The bullying drumbeat from the Left can be discouraging. But I need to do what I can, so my children and grandchildren can inherit a country as wonderful as the one I inherited.
I voted at 6:04 AM and I was about # 30 at my polling place!
Please prove her wrong folks....VOTE Republican!!!!
I'll be voting straight Republican!
Mehlman was just on Rush Limbaugh's show and reminded Rush about the Democrat memo found in 2004 that tells voters to allege voter fraud, even if there was none.
Does anyone remember that memo and have a link?

Hi all: I went to the Clinic around 0630. It was very stormy - heavy rain falling and big wind gusts. I actually got wet running just 15' from my car to the door. I had planned on my regular Tuesday beauty shop for the residents and my hours at the Clinic. Plans were changed when the river began to rise AT LOW TIDE. I knew I couldn't be on the other side of the river this afternoon - I wouldn't have been able to get home to Andy and Charlie until evening. So, I came home at about 0900. Water was across Hwy 53 but I got home fine.
It is still raining, the river is still rising - high tide will be in about an hour. It isn't as bad here as it was in the l996 flood. That year, the river got into the Johnston's home across the river from me. Unless there is a huge surge, it appears their home is safe. Tillamook, on the other hand, is worse than 1996. Many homes and businesses under water. I just watched the national news and saw video of Tillamook and our little town of Nehalem.
I just heard on the scanner that HWY 101 is closed in Nehalem until the water recedes this evening. Even the detour route around downtown is flooded. Laurie is on the other side of the closure from me.
Some oddities? Well, there are salmon swimming in the streets and, some guys with nets have hauled some in :-) Salmon are swimming in the pasture next to the Co-op and people are talking pictures. The Co-op is closed because the river rose high enough to flood the inside of the store. In 1996, there was so much damage in the store that it was closed for almost 3 months.
One good news item, Hwy 53's land slide has been cleared and so that one road is open to Portland. But, since Hwy 101 is closed N and S of us, not many people will be able to take advantage of it being open.
I was already wet when I got the car in the garage so I got out the ladder and cleaned the gutters. Not the ones on the two story side of the house because I promised Larry I would NEVER get on the roof. But I didn't make any promises about getting on a ladder :-) I held my umbrella in my left hand and swept leaves and debris out with my right hand. Once the wind turned my umbrella inside out and I popped it back. But, when it dries, I am going to have to do some repair work on a couple of the splines. I was super wet and cold when I got back in the house so I built a fire and then stood in a hot shower until I was thoroughly warm again.
Andy and Charlie are most pleased to have me home. I like to think it has nothing to do with the fact I feed them, build fires for them and provide a warm lap for them, but rather that they just LOVE me 'cause I'm me :-)
All through this storm, our electricity has stayed on. All the summertime tree cutting and branch removal is paying off. THANK YOU Tillamook Public Utility District!!!! Actually, considering the fact we have had 26" of rain since Friday morning, we are doing fairly well in our little community....it could be a lot worse than it is.
I am going to have some of my homemade hamburger soup for my dinner tonight.....it is a perfect soup day.
And, that is our official weather report from the beautiful North Coast of Oregon....love and hugs, ABC
Tomorrow we have to play the table the way our opponent left it to us.
We play it how it lays.
We need to take a page from the RATS and begin with a constant barage of negativism against all Dems.
