Ah. I see it's for the 10th congressional district. Mostly northern suburbs.

What office are they running for? I don't recall seeing their names on my ballot the other day.

Yikes. Just a thought but probably not a good idea to post a 30K word essay in a message board. Chances of anyone reading it are slim to none.

Another day, another Republican McCarthyite.

Even the new Fox Poll gives Obama a strong lead.

I don't think God chooses sides in elections....or sporting events. But that's just me.

Leave it to the Daily Show to do the MSM's work for them. I smell an Obama ad in the works.

Fahrenheit 9/11

Requiem for a Dream because a few of the characters reminded me of people I once knew.

LMAO

QUOTE (Cknolls @ Oct 21, 2008 -> 01:51 PM) FWIW, NRO is reporting from a variety of sources that Jamie Dimon has agreed in principle to be Obama's Treasury Secretary. Pending a physical plus there's a PTBNL involved.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Oct 21, 2008 -> 01:00 PM) I'd consider going, but only if they had CNN or MSNBC on a big screen TV. I love watching the drama as results come in. I'm not sure it would be as fun in a park filled with people just chatting. I guarantee they will have screens. I went to the Super Tuesday Obama event and they had large projection screens with the audio on. And for a die hard like yourself I'm surprised you're unsure whether you'd want to be there to see your guy potentially win it all in front of tens of thousands of screaming fans. That would be like turning down tickets to game 163 vs the Twins so that you could stay home and listen to Harold Reynolds.

Grant Park has been confirmed for November 4th. Details to come in the next few days.

Another un-American traitor! Off with her head!!

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 21, 2008 -> 12:06 PM) I agree with you that the GOP and McCain/Palin have run a far worse campaign, dirt and slime wise, than Obama and the Dems have. I see it as being a product of a number of things, but there are three primary ones, IMO: 1. Desperation. They are about to lose. 2. The GOP marketing team, starting about 10 years ago and ramping up after 9/11, made a decision to exploit fear in order to gain electoral ground. 3. The GOP faithful have seen their party take hold of power in a big way, and basically squander it, accomplishing very little. They are frustrated. But this attempt to angrily divide our country could really do some damage. The economy is in shambles and it won't take a whole lot to provoke some people into doing some bad things.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 21, 2008 -> 01:01 PM) I assumed you were referring to the black-and-white comment, since you were talking Civil War. No. There's a theme now with that nut case from Minnesota and now this guy. And then there's Palin's comments about pro-American parts of the country. WTF is going on with these people?? It's getting scary.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Oct 21, 2008 -> 12:56 PM) Do you hate me Big Sqwert? Huh?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 21, 2008 -> 12:57 PM) Its the South. Some people there don't think the first one ever ended. And its the "War of Northern Aggression". Anyway, this is not "certain parts of the GOP", these are a few fringe lunatics. They exist in both parties. That quote was from a member of Congress.

I'm getting the feeling that certain parts of the GOP are trying to start another civil war.
