Election Day - Blog Final!
Well, because of kids and computer issues last night, I was unable to Blog the election returns. To bad, there were many interesting points last night…
Jim Bunning, who may be losing his marbles, but didn’t lose his seat after all.
The media going nuts that Kerry was ahead in Virginia, with 2% Precincts, and then, wait, Bush winning big.
Chris Matthews, who I used to love, using the term “visage” to refer to Bin Laden about fifteen times.
Hearing about Provisional Ballots for far too long.
A local newscaster referring to votes coming into our County this way..."Like patting gravy on the biscuits.” I do not have a clue what that means?
The use of more five syllable words in one night than television has heard in decades.
Seeing the MSM, including FOX (why do people still refer to them as Conservatives, the reason I watch them is because they have Juan Williams, Mara Liason - both of NPR - and Morton Kondracke, my favorite Moderate) unwilling to call Iowa, New Mexico, and Nevada because it would mean that the election was over.
And finally, a night without terrorism and without concession speeches.
