Bill wants to make a big sign for our front window that announces that the separation of church and state died on 11/4/08.

At least we haven't done what Arkansas did yesterday about adoptions. But I wouldn't be surprised to see us try.

Hahaha, what's with all the Star Wars analogies today, G.C.?

Don't get me wrong, it's adorable.

OMG.

The race is too close to call, but with 99% of precincts reporting, convicted crook Ted Stevens is leading by ~3,400 votes. I know that most people voting for him are doing so simply to keep the Dem out of the office, but still!

Better the crook you know.....

Besides, if Stevens wins his race he stands a better chance of getting booted out on some type of esthetics charge during his term and peww peww Palin is in like flint...

I noticed in the flood of information yesterday, that the High Speed Rail initiative passed in California. So how long before I can cruse along the Cali coastline at 200+ mph?

If Stevens wins he will almost certainly resign. If he doesn't resign, the Democrats in Congress will almost certainly refuse to seat him (yes, they can do that) and the Republicans will be forced to go along.

Then when the seat is vacant, because of the last Alaska vacancy (when the governor appointed his daughter to the job), there will be a special election.

In which Sarah Palin will almost certainly choose to run.

And since she remains popular in Alaska and the state is solidly Republican. She will almost certainly be elected to the United States Senate sometime next month.

I really hate it when my sarcastic musings turn out to have a basis in reality.
