Election Night Indicators - Part 2 (When will you pop the cork?)
I am watching Florida. If Florida goes for Kerry, I will go ahead and pop the cork! Wake me up Wednesday afternoon!

OH and PA, I expect to go for us anyway. If not, then the cork will have to wait. But if we get Flawda, iss all ova baby!

5. I will stone cold sober all night.
We voted yesterday and are leaving for Washington state on Monday evening. Since we are driving thru we will be listening to the radio to keep up with the results. From where we are we will have 72 hours of hard driving ahead of us.

3. Realistically? If Kerry picks up Ohio and Pennsylvania...
While Bush MIGHT hrave a shot, it'll be very difficult for him to win the EC without those two states. The final straw of course would be if Kerry won Florida.

4. On Inaguration Day, when
the Boy King is dragged away by the Secret Service, kicking and screaming as he breaks down watching the moving trucks pack his sorry ass off to Crawford, Texas.

6. Yep. If FL goes BLUE, we win. Also, if they can't call VA or WV early,
could signal big probs for Chimpy.

7. When the network anchors announce Kerry wins
(Or, if it's before 8 pm PST, if Kerry has gone over 220 votes because California will put him over).

10. All night.
But I expect to break out the good stuff when Florida and/or Ohio or Virginia go blue.

9. OH and PA make me feel a WHOLE lot better and
Im not convinced we'll get FL. But if we reach the Mississippi and he's at 200, remember, the 55 in CA are still waiting.

But FL would be the cork popper...

11. I will probably be drinking coffee
in order to stay awake. I am an early to bed person and early to rise person, normally. I would not miss it for the world.

12. Moet et Chandon
waiting in the fridge for Chimp's concession speech. However I am thinking that even in the clear case of Kerry victory that Chimp lacks the character to give a concession speech.
