LaShawn, in the event that I forget tomorrow, I wanted to wish you a “Happy Blogoversary.” Keep up the great work. Here’s to three more years…

All the Best,
Andi

By the 2008 election, I’ll be living in Virginia and commuting into D.C. daily! Won’t THAT be fun for all of us! Whoohoo!

(Okay – I got up an hour early this morning so I could vote almost as soon as the polls open and I’m getting just a TAD punchy by this point in the day!)

I’ll be watching the California State races. DiFi will probably win as our Senator, but the rest of them are rather interesting–our local MSM have split on endorsements and are actually endorsing some Republicans!

And then there are the always interesting Propositions, including 85 & 87. But there are so many more that sound good–but are they?

Very heavy turnout here too. Bad for conservatives. It means the people voting are desperate. Looking at the two parties, the only desperate voters would be the liberals.

We have the marriage amendment on the ballot here in VA- ohhh that would be sooooo bad if that didn’t pass.

Just got back from voting in my little town of about 5,000 near Kansas City and according to the election workers, heavy turnout. Really surprised me, especially in Kansas where we don’t have any close races. Hmmm wonder what that says?

Decision Day

So, we’ll finally find out whether the months of mudslinging and vitriol will make any difference in the makeup of the House and Senate. Will the Democrats crack the GOP hold on the House or will they fall short? Can the GOP hold the Senate? I’m bett…

Seeing that Obama has been to Maryland twice within a month should say something. Democrats trying to paint Steele as a Bush loving, war mongering, anti stem cell supporting, boogey man didn’t work. Bill”finger shaking” was here yesterday, big yawn on that. Back to Obama, I’m not impressed with him. He’s whole claim to fame is that he gave a good liberal speech at the Democrat National Convention. I’m very curious to see the voting results out of Baltimore City, Howard County, and Prince Georges County. Keep your fingers crossed.

I do care. I sincerely hope that Steele, Allen and Santorum win their elections. It doesn’t look too hot for the first and last of those three, yet I think Allen will hold on.

Of course… I’m one of those nasty conservatives that thinks a loss now means a win in 08…

I too was so jaded that I was intentionally not going to vote then something hit my conscious two days ago and I felt less jaded – why I have no idea. It was only 7 years ago that I realized I was no longer a democrat. When I found the Conservative Brotherhood which led me to LaShawn’s Corner I was proud to state I was a Black American Conservative and I thought it was safe to vote Republican. Led by Pres. Bush, followed up by the Republican Congress’ hypocrisy had left me with a cynical perspective of politics. Geez, perhaps my problem is I actually never read the GOP platform – hmmm, either the GOP platform has changed under this administration or it never was what I thought it was. AND one other thing (thanks, LaShawn for allowing us a forum to share/vent)at least most of you don’t live in LA, CA where being a Conservative truly feels like treading in enemy territory.
Nevertheless,

As a strong Republican, I care if the House changes……but for an odd reason. I think the Republi-pros in the House and the Senate need to have a Come to Jesus meeting about why they are there and what matters besides their own pompous rear ends.

Thus, if the House is shaken up, perhaps Hagel and Stevens and other Senate plutocrats will get an ice-water wake up call.

In fact, the House has done fairly well with Republican issues. It is the Senate Republicans that have ridden off in all directions at once.

If the Republicans squeak it out in the House it will deny us the lunatic antics of Pelosi, Conyers, Wrangle, Hastings and the other inmates.

CNN’s E-lection Nite Blog Party

I’ll be blogging from a DC coffee house starting around 4 Eastern as part of a CNN’s “E-lection Nite Blog Party.” (See how they have the clever homage to the kids there with the intentional misspelling of “night” an…
