Highest Turnout in 36 Years

And therefore the biggest turnout of my lifetime. So says Newt Gingrich.

I really want to win this, for so many reasons I can't even list. But one of them-- a minor one -- is to finally rubbish the liberals' belief that there is an army of liberal voters out there who really, really want to elect liberal candidates to the presidency.

I'm tellin you, when this goes down, it's primal scream time. As lame as that sounds, it's gonna feel SOOOO damn satisfying - the question is who's gonna drive that last coffin nail into the MSM casket?

I've found my moment of Zen in this whole mess, and here it is:

It took four years of Carter to make Reagan possible. And I can wait, if I have to.

But my bones say it Texas BBQ time tomorrow.
I hope he sends Terry McAwful a dozen yellow roses when this is all over.

Just got back from voting in Hamilton County, Ohio. Did a straight ticket Republican vote,then handed my ballot to the four antique women chatting at the table. Nobody seemed especially concerned about seeing my photo identification or voter registration card or anything. I was in and out in less than five minutes, but I imagine it'll really back up after 5.

Ace, I was born in '68. You?

I think it's still too early to have any confidence (even though I posted a supremely confident prediction yesterday). If we win this thing it'll be despite the best efforts of the MSM, up to and including the early leaks of raw exit polling data intended to demoralize optimistic Bush voters. (Heck, if Bush has already lost Ohio, why bother voting in NM, or HI, or OR, or any of the other places he was competitive as recently as a couple of days ago??)

On to more important polls: have you chosen between Bev Crusher, Deanna Troi, Tasha Yar, Guinan, and Lwaxana Troi in this week's SF Babes poll yet? While you're there, check out the new Gallery of previous winners.

Didn't your mother tell you it's rude to ask that of a blogger?

Posted by: ace on November 2, 2004 05:04 PM

Guinan? GUINAN?? Aye caramba.

I'll take Counselor Cleavage, thankyouverymuch.

In reminding yourself to chill you have also helped to remind me to do so. We can do this! America can't be as dumb as Michael Moore thinks!

"America can't be as dumb as Michael Moore..."

I totally agree.

Posted by: zetetic on November 2, 2004 05:15 PM

I thought it was only rude to ask chicks - not bloggers - their age. Your allusion to this being the highest turnout in 36 years, and therefore your lifetime (along with your knowledge of D&D, Rush music and other 80s pop culture), made me wonder whether you were also 36. So who is it? Troi, Crusher, Yar?? (You wouldn't believe the pics you find on Google for Marina Sirtis, btw).

Posted by: JohnL on November 2, 2004 05:32 PM

I wouldn't mind having the URL which led to such pictures.

Posted by: ace on November 2, 2004 05:38 PM

I would, but apparently the term "google dot com" is questionable content.

"It took four years of Carter to make Reagan possible." Words of great wisdom, so let's not despair even if the worst happens, for there will be much work to do, no matter what happens.

Yes, But you cannot undo supreme court nominations. This is really why I voted for GWB. I can't stand the thought of ultra-liberal judges sitting on the highest court in the US. Even, perish the thought, Justice Clinton.

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]
