In Missouri news, FoxNews is reporting that wb carnahan may be hurt by lighter than expected black vote.

[TroutStalker]

Thanks for the link. Let's see how the site holds up tonight. It was a little slow the last time, but didn't crash.

[Mudboy Slim]

I am so PROUD to be a Kansan when we may have--arguably--the most Conservative Voting Populace in Middle America.

FReegards and Good Luck...MUD

[TroutStalker]

I'll be happy to add you to my newly revised Kansas list.

[TroutStalker]

Whoops, you're already on it.

[CodeWeasel]

Thanks for the ping . . .

. . . But how did you know I'm from Kansas???

Paranoia kicking in, but I'm a newbie so maybe there's an explanation.

[AdA$tra]

I am so PROUD to be a Kansan when we may have--arguably--the most Conservative Voting Populace in Middle America.

Yeah, conservatives like Finney, Graves, Slattery and Stovall. Maybe we once were amoungst the most conservative. One look at our bloated SRS budget, education budget and property tax rates and one has to admit we are headed down the liberal and RINO road.

[RAT Patrol]

Nineteen minutes until polls close. I wonder how long 'till we actually get some results.

[RAT Patrol]

Click on your own name and you'll find out.

[RAT Patrol]

Actually, click on your name, then click on the Kansas flag, then click on "see my locale." That will get you to the Kansas page.

[TroutStalker]

We have ways of finding you.

[axel f]

Ah, yes, speaking of Stovall, did you see the letter she wrote to Ashcroft that Chris Biggs had printed in the Capital-Journal today? I just love that woman. NOT!

[Bahbah]

Well, the first hint would be your home page that says Witchita. Did I spell that right?

[Bahbah]

"Witchita. Did I spell that right?"

Do not answer this question.

[RAT Patrol]

When spelling Wichita, just remember, they're NOT Witches.
