There have been all kinds of other things going on in my life and in the world.
\nBut all I can think about is the US election.
\nThe very first polls close at midnight UK time, and the big swing state polls don’t close until three or four a.m. I am still considering staying up all night.
\nI think I’ll just get up real early. That’s the ticket.
\nI’m not nervous about the winner. I’m confident it’s Kerry.
\nI’m nervous about the popular vote. I’m nervous about how much traction the Republican legal dogs will have to force the country through an unpleasant pit-fight in the aftermath. I’m nervous that somehow or other Bush and his sickening puppeteers will find a way to walk away with their heads held high.
\nI don’t just want them to lose – I want them and their entire mad project to be humiliated.
