Hey, some good news from National Review on that blowout for Obama in that one tiny NH town..........apparently every 16 years the voters in Dixville Notch pick the wrong candidate.
Maybe some good fortune for McCain. :)
Of course, all this stuff is superstition.......get out and vote!
“The curse of the Notch [Mark Steyn]
Many readers, clutching at notches and notching at straws, draw my attention to the hitherto little-known 16-year Dixville Notch curse:
Election results:
1960 Nixon 9 Kennedy 0
1976 Ford 13 Carter 11
1992 Bush 15 Perot 8 Marrou 5 Clinton 3
2008 Obama 15 McCain 6
Every 16 years a candidate sweeps the Notch and goes on to lose the nation.
Clearly, Barack Obama is Nixon, Ford and Bush. And McCain is Andre Marrou. No, wait...
If you don’t want an Obama-Pelosi-Reid-Frank-Acorn supermajority, there’s only one way to stop it: Vote.”
Voted at 10:45 in the Highlands area of Louisville (loaded with liberal Democrats). Our three precincts vote in a church, and historically lead the entire state of Kentucky in voter participation. My vote was #1365 at that time. It was heartening to see an older couple drive their van up to the door since the woman was handicapped. That had a Nobama sign and a McPalin sign on their van. Quite a rarity in these parts. I can’t stand our metro council member who was running unoppposed, so I wrote in my husband’s name!
