T Minus Zero...

Well, it's finally here. Our biennial exercise wraps up at 8pm tonight. Tonight's high stakes poker for the Jones clan, as the results of the Gubernatorial election could determine where I am employed come January. And it's a bit of an understatement to say things look a tad grim.

But please folks, while I understand the ennui that leads folks to spit out "bah, a pox on both their houses" a la RW over at Chasing Vincenzo, there are candidates out there worth supporting.

And even if you think there aren't, blanks are understood by politicians. It's like Geddy Lee says, even if you choose not to decide you still have made a choice.

As for me, it's once more into the breach, dear friends, once more, or fill the wall up with our (Republican) dead...

And, hey, someone's got to vote against cheap wine at grocery stores and keep our Commonwealth safe for purveyors of fine amber-colored adult beverages.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to agree with you there. It will be an interesting night!

Well, I'm not going to cry in my beer just yet. If this saves us from a whuppin' in 2008, then it will have been worf it. I just hope everyone wakes up by then. For about the last 18 hours, I've been feeling like I was beamed into some sort of alternate universe. Disturbing!

Hey, and I was lured here from Mushy's blog by your superb avatar - well done!

well, I voted, but sometimes it feels like I am just throwing stones in a well.

Well, it was the G.O.Pacolypse every one was expecting (CBS just broke in to announce that Virginia went democratic too.

Why didn't Bush fire Rumsfeld last week?
