I knew the strip was ending, but now I've just taken a quick roller-coaster dip from the mild but satisfying 'up' of filling in the little oval for Obama and the other little oval damn well AGAINST Brian Bosma*, to the near-tear jerking down of seeing the dumpy little penguin officially retired. But what a fuckin' beautiful last panel. da9ve * Polling place observation in Lawrence (north-east Indianapolis suburb), Indiana: fairly short line, but our precinct isn't all that big and there was another polling place smack next to my neighborhood that I had to drive past to get to *mine*; but it was organized and efficient - no problems at all - spent maybe 20 minutes in line and another not-quite-ten filling out the paper ballot and sliding it into the bin. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 4 Nov 2008 09:41:45 -0800 (PST) From: "C.

Now if there are enough votes for Al Franken to pull it out from 3000 down and 10% remaining, it would be a very good day.

Stevens might win in Alaska and be refused a seat by the Senate. That would mean a special election.

A great day if No on 8 was doing as well as Barack in California. Obama should nail down North Carolina by noon today, which will get him to around 370. Great to see Obama picking up so many of the 2004 Bush states, Ohio, Indiana, Virginia, Florida, New Mexico, Colorado and most probably North Carolina.

Hard to believe it, but at this hour it looks that Alaskans have voted in convicted Ted Stevens in the Senate. A majority of those Joe Six-packs and hockey moms in Alaska are truly warped. After the Senate expels him in January, Bible Spice/Caribou Barbie will get to pick his successor. One can only imagine how truly bizarre that pick will be.

I'd read that most of the outstanding votes are in Hennepin County - i.e., Minneapolis - and likely to favor Franken. - -- ...Jeff Norman The Architectural Dance Society http://spanghew.blogspot.com ------------------------------ End of fegmaniax-digest V16 #767 ********************************
