3. It might have helped Lincoln in 1860

7. The fog of 9/11 hadn't lifted.
It's still clouding some people, but only the dumbest namby pamby shits out there. In other words, Republicans.

5. Doubtful.
Why do you think they work so hard to SUPPRESS the vote, while we work so hard to GET people to vote?

I'm starting to feel really good about this. While I was only 8 years old at the time, it's reminding me a lot of that magical day in 1992.

9. Kansas
I just voted for Kerry at 10AM. No lines at all. Good sign because this is a red state. Hope all the fundies here stay home today.
