Ugh
I'm trying very hard to not spend the entire day today freaking out about the elections. Paul Krugman (who has become just a little too partisan for my taste in recent years) made me feel a little better with a column [nytimes.com - registration blah] about how he is humbled and encouraged by long lines to vote. In general, though, I read these reports about challengers in polling places and lawyers gearing up lawsuit arguments and I get depressed. Regardless of who "wins" today there will be endless recounts, challenges and biased judicial decisions. Is democracy dead in the United States?

I would just like to say that as long as the GOP is in power, it might as well be a gestapo state. As we know, mysterious and questionable things have taken place all throughout this "presidency." Anyway. Thanks for finally updating your blog fool.
