« Bad News from Larry Sabato: No Incumbent Has Ever Won After Being Tied in the Polls Before Election Day | Main | Don't Let the Door Hit Ya Where the Good Lord Split Ya »
November 02, 2004

And So This is Christmas (Politically Speaking)

I don't know about you, but I can't believe it's finally here. Whether we win or lose (let's win, though, right?), I'm just sooo happy it's going to be over.

As a blogger, I should want it to continue. But as a human being, I can't take it any more.

Kathryn Jean Lopez was saying (at that event I attended) that all the political consultants and hacks she talks to say that-- they just can't take it; they need it to be over. I imagine most of you feel the same way. Except for a few sickies.

Incidentally, I'll be live-blogging the election tonight, which I guess just means I'll be posting a lot.

Woot for the sickies! I don't know why I didn't get as burned or bummed out about it as everyone else. I guess I had a low bar to start with.

I'm with you Ace. Enough is enough. I'm going to consume several Leinenkugel's (Oktoberfest is outstanding!) tonight, hoot and holler when Bush is announced the winner and then put this whole thing out of mind and enjoy the Kim Richards Pic-O-Rama :)

Good idea. I'm breaking out the Christmas carols early, and who can feel uptight with that musical backdrop?

Kim Richards???? I thought he said Keith Richards. Yeh, okay, now I'll vote for Bush.

Posted by: Master of None on November 2, 2004 11:41 AM

Ditto.

After several years of intense news addiction, I have no more emotional enegy left. I'm voting, but otherwise I'm switched off.

Between Ace, Instapundit, The Corner, and other assorted blogs, I won't be surprised when my modem bursts into flame.

That's all right, though. I'll be far too drunk by 11 PM to care.

Lookin forward to it.

Black Conservative Perspective has a hot take on the Harry Sisson "cancellation" -- he thinks it's all a psyop
He thinks Democrats trying to portray the very femmy Sisson as straight to appeal to the young straight male voters Democrats need, despite widespread belief that he's as gay as a peacock at high tea. He thinks they've arranged for female Democrats to accuse him of Toxic Masculinity and Absolutely RECKING That Poon.
This is a silly theory, except for when you remember that literally every single messaging offensive by the Democrat Party is 1 fake and 2 gay
