What I will Not Be Doing Today
The following is a short list of things I will not be doing in the wake of the 2006 mid-terms:
- Blaming Diebold.
- Staying in bed with massive depression.
- Creating a new election-based psychological malady.
- Lamenting that America has down descended into a (fill in the blank) state.
- Checking out immigration laws to other countries.
Good ones. Here are some from my list:
- "Take to the Streets"
- Call for revolution
- Consider secession
- Travel to the 9/11 memorial in Arizona and kill myself (what too soon?)
- Blame it on a Carville-ian conspiracy
I decided to go into mourning for one minute, but I only lasted 20 seconds. It's a beautiful sunny morning in the greatest nation of all, and it's time to start reminding Republicans of why they wanted political power in the first place. It wasn't to act like the Democrats, it was to fight for ideals of freedom and justice.
Republicans lost the election, and the Democrats won only because they were the only other game in town.

I'd really like to get to the bottom of it this time, but I have a bad feeling that they'll give up and we won't hear about it any more (for a while).
The good news is that the Dems (in the House so far) don't have much to hide behind anymore. The only real thing they will be able to blame on anyone else now is if Bush vetoes some legislation.
I do hope that Bush will not get all mushy with them just to prove he is a "nice guy".
Only time will tell and my time has other things to do....
