We did it!!!! Obama routed John McCain in a full on electoral college sweep. 333 Electoral Votes and 51% of the popular vote. Add to that sweet victory: Democrats unseat GOP House incumbents.

It’s election night and after a long break from blogging I decided it was good night to sit down and do some live-blogging. The polls just closed here and CNN is projecting that Obama has taken Maine. I’m happy to say I was able to be a part of the victory for Obama here in [...]

It is amazing she wouldn’t say she voted for her own Presidential candidate. I wonder if this isn’t an example of the problems within the McCain-Palin campaign. [UPDATE: It may be possible that Palin was answering a question about her vote on convicted Senator Ted Stevens when she said she 'would invoke her right to [...]

I’ve been lax in blogging since my cross country move to Maine. Settling in here and unpacking has taken up most of my time, but I did not want to let election day pass without chiming in.

Yippy! Hurray! It’s election day and we’re down to the very last nail-biting, brain-numbing hours of playing “Election Day Shuffleboard”. How can you NOT be excited?
Whether your candidate of choice wins or not, today’s election is historic on so many levels. We’ve got race, we’ve got sex, we’ve even got the crazy! And, very, very, [...]
