A special message of hope for LSBB's Little Friend, who had such an unfortunate polling place encounter which, unfortunately, lent credence to my theory that many Republicans are moral hypocrites: If there's a bright side, Bush has four more years to foul things up, and will be increasingly unable to avoid accountability for his administration's policies. If we don't devolve into a cultural Civil War, I predict a Democratic Renaissance in the next four years, and to be blunt, this loss may be just what the party needed to kick itself into high gear once and for all.
In the meantime, we will have to endure more bloodshed in Iraq, more fiscal irresponsibility, and possibly a pseudo-theocracy. But we will endure. I still believe that people are good at heart, and so should you all.

little friend of LSBB again.
A woman came up to me, placed her hand on my arm and asked me, "First time?" I said no, I voted in the primaries. She sighed a dramatic sigh, did a little laugh clearly saying "oh those young liberals are so dumb", sighed again and walked away. It was really creepy. Ohioans are insane.
You should watch more of the Daily Show. Last night was "Which side to take in the upcoming civil war?!"
In other news, Miss Hawaii plead guilty to possession of crystal meth today. Didn't see that one coming. CNN.com is a beautiful place.
You can't win the country without the South. Here's a comment from my Christian Progressive brother living in the deep south:
We have got to start showing that it is not the Christian thing to do to say, "it's my money not the govenrment's." According to the Bible, we are given everything by God. It's God's money, that's why you Tithe and that's why you share it. I really think we let Christians off by letting them claim the moral high road. Democrats need to do a better job of educating. There's nobody getting the actual message of the democratic party out in the South. It's the recycled crap you hear on crossfire. I mean the actual stuff verbatim.
He's right. If you don't engage the South, you lose the South. We can win the morality debate if we engage in it.
