« on: October 18, 2010, 09:32:07 am »

Early voting is now available in all 50 states.   Tonight's news said 30% of the votes in  the last election were early votes in some states so you have NO EXCUSE for not voting.   What is up with that Sarah Palin character anyway...... one minute she is stumping for  republicans, next minute for tea baggers.......? Is she still having troubles holding a job? ;D

Thanks for the update. We watched a news story tonight that said it was available in all 50 states showing a colored map with all the same color.  another gaf on the news. Oh well, Pennsylvanians will have plenty of time to correct the mistakes of this election next time, once they find out goods on whoever gets elected this round. Looks like early voting is only available in 46 states......here is the calendar.

Speaking of Sarah Palin, here is a good reason to make your voices heard at the polls.

I never wait in line at my polling station so I don't care about early voting myself.  I'm always surprised at these long lines I see on the news.

This video should be an advertisement, run by Democrats in every single race nationally.

Def taking advantage of early voting here in Broward... I doubt any ads that run afterwards can sway my votes anyway... speaking of ads, how terrible have all these ads gotten? I'm really sick of them!

Thanks for the reminder Ray, everyone needs a little push, especially with some of the loony, frightening, dopey, lunatic fringe that's running in more than one state, many of them women, go figure.  But then some historians felt that the support of women in the years leading up to Hitler's ascent to become the Furhrer was crucial to his gaining the power he subsequently received.  We have some real loose cannons seeking huge positions in our Congress as well as state levels.

Great post Mark on the you tube video, as Joe says it should be shown to every voter in America.  Let the other side(s) have their say, just show the voters that.  If they stlill vote into office some of these characters, well the old saying goes that we get what we deserve.

Yes, the ads are getting really nasty. I hate the political telemarketers that are really trying to make some kind of veiled  stab at their opponents in the so called surveys. >:(  We watched John McCain last night.  It was funny to hear him talk about how proud he was of Sarah Palin;  ::) what I didn't get was proud of what....... that she is spending more time with another party, the tea baggers, or that she is running around saying everyone in Washington is wrong ( including his beloved republicans)?  ::)

I would hope that everyone on here (from the USA) will vote!  There is way too much at stake not to.
