I voted to annex Oz as our 51st state. I had to write it in, but you can
expect to feel some shockwaves pretty soon.

**Cool.
When can I pick up my guns?
Rocket Launcher?
Do I get a new passport?
Here in Australia, we can eat the animals on our Coat of Arms (the Kangaroo
and the Emu). Can I eat a Bald Eagle? Maybe followed by a nice Buffalo
steak?
Can I have an SUV? (A big one, of course.)
Can I still drink Australian beer?

I went to a polling station by work and obtained
a provisional ballot under the name Trevor Wilson
and wrote in G.W. Bush in every race.

When you get the request for confirmation of address,
just send 'em a copy of your utility bill.
BTW, you're now a registered republican.

I went down to the local polling site, showed picture ID, signed next to
my name in their log book, then got a pass to get in line for the voting
machine. Then I went behind the curtain, and pressed the X's next to
the candidates I wanted, and then hit the "Cast Ballot" button. That's
how I voted....

No picture ID required in Ca. State your name and address
and if your on the list...you vote.
Even if you're not you can still vote, just ask for a provisional.
They only validate the provisionals if they can influence the
election outcome.

No curtain...just a carboard hood

and pressed the X's next to the candidates I wanted, and then hit the "Cast
Ballot" button.

The electronic Diebold machines out here seemed to work fine.
The ballots on the machine were just like the sample so it was
pretty easy to follow. Only complaint I heard was the room lights were
dim presumably so it was easier to see the screens, but it was too
dim for some people to read their selections off the sample ballots.

Then when you were done, you had to review and confirm each page.
Thats pretty tedious and I'll bet most people just hit next page
a lot.
After confirming each page it printed on an internal paper tape
you could see thru a window but it wasn't visible long enough
to really follow.

Dumbasses are voting down cleanmoney. Thats 2 democratic
process enhancing inititiatives in the last 2 elections that have
both failed.

Let me just say that I was at the Democratic party until 0300. Aside
fom one or two races, I am very, very happy with the outcome.

I was a Democratic poll-watcher here. No significant problems with the
elections, machines, or anything else at the precinct that I was
monitoring.

The precinct I was at is traditionally a pretty strong conservative GOP
stronghold. When the election judge gave me the results it was about
2-1 Dem over GOP. I'd guess turnout at about 60% of registered voters.

I think a lot of republicans couldn't take bushie, rove and crew's
policies anymore. We were hoping for maybe 50%. On the entire ballot, I
think only 1-2 republicans won, and even those were very, very close.

We have term limits he they're called elections. They were exercised
today by the population of the US.

We had a measure that made sense not pass here, too.

The reason wasn't voting it down so much as many people, Dem and GOP,
thought the measure was poorly written.

http://www.townhall.com/columnists/H...ing_a_majority

I don't think that essentially railroading things through was the
answer. ("Yes, President Bush got his two nominees to SCOTUS through a
55-45 Senate, but the door is now closed, and the court still tilted
left. A once-in-a-generation opportunity was lost.") Remember too
bushie's recess nominations. Bolton, for example, only seemed liked by
the far right. No attempt at bipartisanship in appointing someone to
represent the US in an inernational body. Never any attempt at
bipartisanship. bushie seemed to say, "My way, or the highway. And if
you don't give me my way, I'll take it anyway."

And if you read between the lines, Hewitt is actually advocating
obstructionism --exactly what he accused the Dems of-- for the next two
years. ("But the majority is not going to return unless the new
minority leadership --however it is composed-- resolves to persuade the
public, and to be firm in its convictions, not concerned for the praise
of the Beltway-Manhattan media machine.") So republicans will be 'firm
in their convictions' but Dems were 'obstructionists.' I think that
will be fatal for them if they do that.

Whatever. I was actually sorry that Chafee didn't win. He seemed like a
good Senator to me, one of the very few republicans that I might vote
for if in his distrct. And I believe that republican arrogance (as
opposed to "overconfidence") had a part to play with the electorate
too.

My brother was a republican up until this election. The anti-science
whacko ID/stem cell/Schiavo group in the republicans (****, that
sounded like Arny. I may have to kill myself now.) was what turned him
over.

Some take. His view "we didn't nuke em (the Dems, the Constitution, the
Senate protocol, the NYT) when we could have", so the gang of fourteen and
our erstwhile leaders are also traitors. Nice reading material you surround

I talked with a lot of republicans (the more moderate variety) that

Chaffee, I do find it sad that we have to have wild swings in the
electorate where good, solid candidates like him get swept out because
of the backlash against the ultra-right-wing nutjobs.

I can't believe that I'm defending a republican...:-)

Since the democratic party has no soul, they only exist to be in

it wouldn't take that many conservatives to flip over and make the dems
the conservative party.

I voted Libertarian in Ca, not that it mattered. We're gerrymandered
to insignificance.

Some take. His view "we didn't nuke em (the Dems, the Constitution, the
Senate protocol, the NYT) when we could have", so the gang of fourteen and
our erstwhile leaders are also traitors.

Traitors to the party and traitors to conservatism.

Nice reading material you surround
yourself with there, Scott.

Too lofty for you Harry?

BTW..you're about the only person I have ever hear who implied the
"senate protocol" doesn't deserve nuking. The NYT definitely does but
instead they're going to slowly bleed to death.

Whatever. I was actually sorry that Chafee didn't win. He seemed like a
good Senator to me, one of the very few republicans that I might vote
for if in his distrct. And I believe that republican arrogance (as
opposed to "overconfidence") had a part to play with the electorate
too.

The final poll in the state showed 62% liked him and thought he was doing a
fine job....and they still voted for the Dem to teach Bush and the Repubs a
lesson. We New Englanders are like that, you know. :-)

Like that stupid? Bush doesn't give a **** about the party.

I think the lessons republicans learned is voting for
someone who doesn't represnet you cuz he's better than the other guy
isn't.




My brother was a republican up until this election. The anti-science
whacko ID/stem cell/Schiavo group in the republicans (****, that
sounded like Arny. I may have to kill myself now.) was what turned him
over.

I suspect the Dems picked up a whole lot more like him. And even more
turned independent.

I talked with a lot of republicans (the more moderate variety) that
could not vote for them this cycle.

Chaffee, I do find it sad that we have to have wild swings in the
electorate where good, solid candidates like him get swept out because
of the backlash against the ultra-right-wing nutjobs.

I can't believe that I'm defending a republican...:-)

I saw him interviewed on NECN (New England Cable Network, for you
outlanders) tonight. He was asked if he could take people who thought
highly of him voting for the Dems to send Bush a message....was it right?
He visibly grimaced, thought about it a few seconds, and said with some pain
"unfortunately it was". That's class. As is announcing he will not vote
for John Bolton and stopping Bushie's "bi-partisan" ram-through in its
tracks. Now we'll probably get another "bi-partisan" recess appointment.

Why are openly conservative dems centrist?

Because your party has moved so far right that a conservative Democrat is a
"centrist" by Republican standards.

Maybe I should have asked, "What's it like to lose your mind to MSM?"

Since the democratic party has no soul, they only exist to be in
power..

The Dems used to be the conservative party.

The evangelicals started their republican takeover in the 1970s.

I think all states are. I also think (as I've said) that's the root of
the problem.

BTW, I do not think that's a fair statement.

One party has consistently been for civil rights. One party has
consistently been pro-choice.

Can you name that party in, say, two guesses?
