What I'm Thankful For Today

BREAKING LATE ELECTION RESULTS

With 97 % of precincts reporting from Petoskey, Michigan, Hooknose Longhorn and his brother, Dell, have retained the posts of Dogcatcher and Deputy Dogcatcher, posts which the former Tejas farmers have held since 1980. Jello Face Odion defeated Trident to win the post of Water Supervisor.

Trident's concession speech consisted of him mainly zooming around the podium as his supporters cheered, his three-pronged outlet of a tail flying behind him.

The race between Phoneface and Bellnose for Building Supervisor is still too close to call.

The Ionisation Blackout

Well folk, today is Election Day.
You know what you have to do. Hopefully some of you have already done it.
Of course I 'd hope you would vote Democratic, but if you must vote Republican, at least vote. (Like that GOP vote will matter in Illinois.)

The thing I most want to happen tonight is to see Barack and Michelle Obama and Joe and Jill Biden shining all over Grant Park, before they throw the last shovelful of lime over the stinking, rotting, pustulent, bloated carcass of Karl Rove's career as any kind of political strategist. (They want to nail the lid on the coffin of this iteration of the GOP proper, they could do that too.)

So the board is in motion. I'm off to Loyola Park fieldhouse. Then we wait.

And then we dance.
