I votedc yesterday and the poll workers are telling me the turnout is bigger than the last presidential election. Considering where I live I suspect these folks are not democrats. As far as the republicorp garbage it might be more believable if the dems wernt putting wall street lobbyists in charge of national security.

In many places, absentee ballots don't get counted unless the results are close, so it doesn't appeal to me personally. What happens if the teabaggers don't win races they've convinced themselves they should win? History tells us it won't be pretty. They're not going to blame their candidates - they're going to look for boogiemen to blame, as they've been doing the whole time. "New Black Panther Party" ring a bell? I suspect there are going to be a lot of results that are closer than the propagandists claim. Turnout is key (as it always is in close races). This election isn't going to go down exactly the way the polls have indicated. There is going to be some disappointment on both sides. Boehner won't get his 100 new seats is a safe bet, I think. We'll see what happens. Cheers, Scott.

In the week before the polls all of the libraries have voting stations, day of the lines are not so bad. results are all tallied at the same time. Not much chance of pulling a Franken here Any opinions expressed by me are mine alone, posted from my home computer, on my own time as a free American and do not reflect the opinions of any person or company that I have had professional relations with in the past 55 years. meep
