« 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.

As Kash Patel takes over as FBI head, unpardoned election-rigger Peter Strzok deletes his entire twitter history
My speculation: what he's really deleting are his DMs, which probably feature a fair few Deep State operatives coordinating with him. Don't worry, Elon Musk will resurrect those DMs.
Dick Durbin says Patel is a rilly bad guy, you guys
I prefer the heat. I can always wear shorts and flip-flops if it gets hot. But when it's below freezing it's not like I can just put pants on.

More fraudulent journalism at CBS: 60 Minutes interviewed two people who lost their jobs as a result of DOGE overhauling USAID. Kristina Drye & Adam Dubard emoted on behalf of thousands of USAID employees who have been terminated, but neither Kristina nor Adam was actually an employee of USAID. Clever word parsing and dishonest editing conveyed otherwise. [Buck]

Axios focus group: 11 out of 11 swing voters support Trump and Musk's actions, particularly their cuts to the federal budget
Axios notes that voters aren't buying the newest Dem op, which claims that the 100-billionaire Musk spent millions to get Trump elected so that he could raid the Social Security office and steal $700 checks from grandmas. For some reason!

Update: Trump pummels a female CNN reporter who sounds like Barbra-Streisand-nosed Kaitlin Collins
Her "question" -- her declaration thinly disguised as a question -- is that Russia could just withdraw its troops from Ukraine, so why do we need peace negotiations? Well, Genius, because armies that are winning do not just walk away without getting the losing army to give them something. It's so f***ing stupid. I think they're all autistic.
Maxine Waters explains why she doesn't want Musk auditing the Grifter Government: "We don't know what they have on us"

JOE ROGAN: "People are worried that Elon is going to steal everyone's money. He has $400B. Elon's not going to steal your money. That's not what he's doing. He's a super genius that has been f**ked with. When you've been f**ked with by these nitwits that hide behind 3-letter agencies, and you're dealing with one of the smartest people alive helping Donald Trump get into office and find out what corruption is really going on, you f**ked up.

You f**ked up and picked the wrong psychopath on the spectrum. He's going to hunt you down and find out what's going on, and that's good for everybody. That's how you should be looking at this, like 'Wow, we have a brilliant mind examining these really corrupt and goofy systems and bringing in a bunch of psychopath wizards."
