Yes, yes, I know it's a vanity post! To those who are offended, please stop reading. For the rest of you, here it is...
1. The freeway overpasses into downtown Minneapolis were littered with Obamaniac sycophants waving large signs AND American flags! I rolled down my window and extended a middle finger several times as well as yelled out "Fu**ing Losers!". Yes, it was senseless and immature - and no, I'm not sorry.
2. I got a robo-call last night from Ashwin Madia's (aka Ashtray Madhatter's) campaign. He's a Dem running in the 3rd Congressional District. I live in the 5th Congressional District. I really hope that's a good sign of how "well" their GOTV effort is doing.
3. I heard an interview of a black woman in Miami who said that once Obama is elected, she'll no longer have to worry about filling her gas tank or paying her mortgage. She said "If I help him, he'll help me". I fear for our nation when I hear voters talk like that.
4. The Messiah will win this state by turning out incredibly massive numbers in the core cities or Minneapolis/St Paul as well as the first-ring suburbs - which are getting bluer and bluer with each passing election cycle. Those numbers will offset McCain's numbers in the suburbs and exurbs.
5. Last Friday, a woman in the elevator confessed that she cried when she listened to Obamaniac's infomercial. Of course, she is only 22 and is 5 months pregnant - so I'll write it off to the estrogen.
Well, that's about all that comes to mind. Feel free to submit your useless thoughts, observances and jsings too...
You’re right. He should have merely said “Boo!”. They would have scattered in a Roadrunner-inspired cloud of dust. Basically cowards, you see.
I work at a polling location (church/school) south of the river (Dakota County). I would call our precinct moderately blue. Compared to the 2004 election, turn out here is down.
Have faith! it isn’t over yet.
Thanks. I hope you’re right, too.
I may be one of those on FR who actually enjoys some of Al Franken’s humor...but the thought of him in the US Senate sends my stomach into queasy overdrive.
Go McCain, Go Coleman, Go Bachmann! VOTED. MN 6th Dist. shout out.
Here’s something to cheer ya up Steve:
Professor ousted after tearing down McCain yard signs
The St. Olaf (Northfield, Minn.) professor who, in a well-read Huffington Post item, recounted tearing down McCain campaign signs has resigned.
Per the Northfield News, it appears that Philip Busse was forced out.
St. Olaf spokesman David Gonnerman issued the following statement Monday afternoon:
“The St. Olaf College administration first learned of Phil Busse’s self-admitted theft and destruction of campaign signs on the morning of Oct. 31 as a result of his posting on the Internet.
“The St. Olaf administration immediately referred the matter to local law enforcement authorities and commenced an investigation of its own.
“Mr. Busse has tendered his resignation and is no longer affiliated with St. Olaf College.
Busse has been charged with misdemeanor theft.
What part of CA are you in? There’s Props 4 and 8. I think they will pass. We need some good news tonight.
