I was pretty excited in 04, but alas ...  a MAJOR upset.  We have a lot of ground to cover tomorrow.  I'd love to wipe that stupid smirk off of Bush's and Rove's face.   >:(

Having a Felon on your record, does not prevent you from voting in Pennsylvania (I assume that's where you are/registered).  Check out the ACLU's webpage. 

http://www.aclupa.org/issues/votingissues.htm

Only people currently serving time in prison are prevented from voting.

Hmm, well when I lived in Miami, I was told I could not vote due to the felony, so I just assumed that I could not vote in any state. If that is the case, then a voting I shall go!!!!! Democrat here...thanks cliff.

Voted early here...tomorrow I will be working the phones to get out the vote. I am cautiously optimistic the Democrats take back the house. I am hoping Harold Ford Jr. becomes the first Afro-American Senator from the great state of Tennessee. VOTE!!!!!

We'll wait...




my wishes:

1) get rid of the current bunch of mean incompetents

2) when you have time, reconsider the infamous "american way of life is not negotiable" (Z.B), it is not sustainable for any of you or us, in the long run...

thanks

stay well, all of you
