I got my absentee ballot today - I can go ahead and vote

uh-uh-uh, not quite yet. Before you vote, please re-read Yes We Can, All About Obama, Random Political Thoughts Part Deux and Debates of All Ilk in their entirety, to make informed advance decisions.

Please ignore me if this has already been linked on LoT. I hadn't see it until it was just linked on another board and I think it is dang funny! :D

A weekend viewing tip - Stephen Colbert will be The Governor's guest on Huckabee 8 & 11 PM (both Eastern and Pacific) Saturday and Sunday night on Fox News (if you can stand watching that channel for an hour which I am sure there are not many around these parts who can)

Confidentially the only time I watch Fox News is when Huckabee is doing his show or is a guest on another program. The establishment cusses over there constantly trashing my candidate for months during the Primaries has taken its toll.

Ew.

I don't want to think of George W. Bush when I listen to "Once In A Lifetime."
It's used in the W. trailer.

Ew!

So I photographed my ballot. Not just to commemorate my part in electing the first black president in history (again, not the reason I'm voting for him, but historical none the less), but also so I can keep track of how I voted. Technically, I have my sample ballot, but I didn't totally fill it out ahead of time and this was quick and easy.

Now when the election results come in, I can actually remember silly things like what the heck was Prop 12 and which way did I vote on it (had to do a little wiki research, but it was one of the three Yes's (yesses?) on my ballot.

I've always kind of wondered how pet names get on official listings. It amuses me.

Interesting article on Rovian politics vs. the internet

Thanks to YouTube -- and blogging and instant fact-checking and viral emails -- it is getting harder and harder to get away with repeating brazen lies without paying a price, or to run under-the-radar smear campaigns without being exposed.
