Maybe my Dad who shed his mortal coil back in 1987 will be making a cameo at the voting booth today. He was a registered “D”.
Thank God I take after Mom!!!
My dad passed away last Monday and, while being a union Dem. his whole life (butcher), I never got the sense that he was a Kennedy fan....I heard him call Ted a “fat filthy bastard” many times. I hope this is a parting gift from him to me (not to sound selfish ... I think you know what I mean).
Usually when I’ve I looked at the live results come in on the official website for a special or late Louisiana election the rats end up winning, the exception being the 2 late house elections in Louisiana in 2008.
Though it’s irrational and just like thinking you can effect the outcome of a football game by watching or not (there are people whom if their team is doing well won’t get up to use the bathroom) I always came away thinking I jinxed it. ;p
I will be placing this on several threads tonight..
I called Kerry’s office and suggested he be a gentleman and hold up any further Senate votes until the junior senator is sworn in, no matter who it is.
His aide said that Kerry has made it clear he wants the senator sworn in asap but that he would NOT hold up such important legislation as Health Care waiting for that to happen, because “the people overwhelmingly want HC to pass”. When I started to argue her facts, she hung up on me.
Typical Kerry and Kennedy and Kirk response - elitist idiots.
