Thanks for looking, and a Tip 'O the Hatlo Hat to you:

[backhoe]

Bttt^ for going to vote...

[backhoe]

I don't usually "do" editorials or essays, preferring to confine myself to a few acerbic comments, or letting my links and the data they contain speak for me- but tonight I feel compelled to mention a few things.

The following's a Jay-Mo ( just my opinion ) for your consideration.

---

1- Vote. Please, just do it. No matter what the outcome, at least you will have made your voice heard, and believe me, while your side may not prevail, demographers do study these things, and note trends.
Your vote is important.

2- This election may be the first where the usual spin and fraud has been less effective.
Fox is reaching a signifigant number of housholds, and at least half of America reports getting news from "alternative" sources- like the 'net, and talk radio- I believe this is finally making a difference.

3- Ignore the polls... they may be right, they may be wrong, but only until the final tally is made will we know for certain.

Me, I'm going to put my head down, listen to the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy on radio, and come to the 'net for information... and ignore the mainstream media- press and entertainment divisions.

Good luck; Godspeed, may the Right prevail and the gibbering hoardes of the Left be vanquished... but don't forget to Vote...

thanks backhoe, and thanks for your help. GOP is going to KICK ASS on Tuesday, we will all awake to a GOP Congress- Senate & House. The regular media will be apoplectic. It will be wonderful.

Just get ten neighbors to SHOW UP AND VOTE!!!

Thank you both for stopping by... on a personal note, I met Georgia members dansangel and .45man last week, and a gracious and charming couple they are. I suspect that is true of many other members here. And my Taffy-dog-girl has to GO!- I must run!

[Aracelis]

it will be interesting to see how all this tactical manouvering plays out.

Darned shame that it comes down to this...but what the heck. The Dems are trying to pull a fast-one, and I'm countering by turning as many of my daughter's voting-age friends into staunch Republicans. Gotta grow the next crop! :-)

Well I guess if you say so...

And everybody bring a camera to the polls. Snap a photo of any bus or van you see there and get its license plate number. Won't it be interesting to see how many different places a given vehicle turns up in? Particularly in border areas and same-day states.

If you have lots of free time, follow a bus around for a while to see if it is picking up and dropping off, or just shuffling from polling place to polling place.

Don't let that breakfast buying get out! It could be considered payment for a vote! SSSSSHHHHH keep it to yourself!

[D. Miles]

Early voting ended on Halloween (how fitting) and the voter turnout was said to be half a million across the state.

Gotta grow the next crop!

Know what? I am actually encouraged from what I have seen of my teenage nieces. I'd describe their politics as "skeptical"- perhaps leaning libertarian, but just dubious about all the wonderful claims of "how much we are going to 'help' you" of either party.

Good advice, and I thank you.

Good morning, Backhoe.

Another suggestion. DO NOT ALLOW THE PRESSTITUTES ANY POWER TUESDAY NIGHT.

DO NOT WATCH THE BOUGHT PRESS LACKEYS ON TUESDAY NIGHT. DO NOT WATCH TELEVISION PERIOD. TURN IT OFF. AND IF YOU ARE A PRAYING PERSON, PRAY AND PRAISE AND THANK GOD! BUT DO NOT WATCH THE DEMONRAT REPORTERS.

[backhoe]

Hello, Freedom!

I absolutely agree... I am going to ignore ( as much as I can, the dam' environment is saturated with propaganda! ) both the press and entertainment divisions of the media.

Two wings of the same bird or prey...

If I must watch TV, I'll tune in Fox, otherwise it will be the 'net, and Boortz, Rush, Hannity, the 2 Mikes- Reagan and Medved- for all my news.

BTW, here's where I hang out when FR is down:

-Free Dominion Guest Room for Freepers--

You might want to pass that link on to others... FD has a similar format ( HTML ) and while small, it's very friendly, and much superior to that ghastly Yahoo! chatroom.

Well I guess if you say so...

Pfffttttt! o~<);-)

Thank-you, backhoe, for the kind words.

It was an honor and a privilege to meet you. The GA gang is not such a bad bunch after all!

[dansangel]

it should be apparent the Left is trying to highjack these elections.

And if it isn't, may God help us all!

Thank-you for posting this, backhoe. It needs to be shouted from the rooftops.

[dansangel]

BUMP for a well-written thread. Please use your ping lists and help to spread the word. We have this PRIVILEGE to use tomorrow at the polls...let others know that this election is every bit as important as a presidential election.

Our priest said it after mass yesterday....we are so privileged in this country to have a choice in our leaders. Get out and vote and VOTE YOUR CONSCIENCE!

[RobFromGa]

LOLWLFMF (lol wiping loogey from my face)...

Go Chambliss!

[backhoe]

It was good to meet the both of you, too... in case FR has problems, some of us have established a base camp here:

I'd add more ( read the directions onsite ) but have to run- shopping, visiting my Mom in the Old Folks House of Bondage...
