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.

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).

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.

CJN podcast 1400 copy.jpg
Podcast: CBD and Sefton discuss the obvious incompatibility of Islam with free societies, John Bolton is a disloyal sleaze, The SAVE Act is in the muck of Senate RINOs, the crappy quality of anti-American propaganda, and more!
Some people liked Candace Owens because she was a black woman who told hard truths about BLM and black criminality. But this was always a grift. She started out as a race hustler for a grift, then hustled race the other way to grift conservatives, and now she's back to being a race-hustler for the left again. Specifically, she is now claiming that people pointing out that she is legitimately low-IQ and can't pronounce half the words her AI-generated teleprompter script points out to her is racist and just Ben Shapiro's way of saying the n-word without quite saying it. You see, you can only say that black people are smart, and if you see a dumb one that doesn't know how to pronounce simple words while she poses as an investigatory journalist, you have to pretend she's actually smart or you're a racist. Weird, that doesn't sound very conservative, let alone "#Based," to me. To prove how much she hates racism, she then says that Ben Shapiro's Jew ancestors were masters of the slave trade.
The Oscars: A celebration of thanking. Dave Barry nails it! [CBD]
Ami Kozak: Every single Tucker Carlson episode consists of him claiming he didn't say the things he said in the last episode
Also: this is the manipulation Tucker does that i hate the most. It's so cowardly. All he does is smear people (and Jews, generally), and then claim "I have nothing against [the person or group I just smeared.]" He'll even claim "I love [x], actually." Just again and again and again. It's all a lie, of course. A year ago he smeared Jews but added how beautiful he thought Israel was, and then two weeks ago, he said Israel is ugly as dog-shit and nothing beautiful has been built there "since 1948."
Just got this email from Dracula: "I love Van Helsing, actually, he's one of my personal heroes, if I'm being honest. I will claw the heart out of his belly and bathe in his blood before the children of Babylon, but I have nothing but respect for Van Helsing, actually. Love is the answer. Except for the followers of the Christ whom I am commanded to turn into my dark army of Satan. And I totally don't worship Satan, I just think we should listen to both sides. Hugs and kisses, may Van Helsing burn in the blood-red fires of hell throughout eternity, even though I consider him a close and dear friend, Vlad called Dracul."

Ana Navarro, on Abby Phillip's show: the terrorists attempted an attack on the Muslim Zohran Mamdani
The usually-reliable Batya-Ungar Sargon is claiming this was an innocent mistake by Abby Phillip but Phillip did not correct Navarro when she lied about the target of the attack.
