I voted for McCain/Palin in Indiana this afternoon. I also voted for every female on the ballot. There were plenty, too. That was gratifying.

Thanks, Anna Belle — me too. In fact for State Legislature I got to choose between 2 women! That was my favorite vote of all.

best recap of the whole damn thing:

to get ~~5 million more votes Barack and his campaign spent more than $500 million……
in a year where the Repblicans should’ve lost Mondale-style, McCain-Palin still took 47% of the vote. No re-drawing of the map, just a usual electoral swing. No large turnout – it was lower than in 2004. No large youth vote – just as much as in ’04.
In a year which should’ve spelled the death of Republican principles, Obama starts his presidency with his advisors insinuating Social Security may be privatized.
In a year where george bush had effectively laid out the red carpet for a Democrat, it took a credit crisis, an economic meltdown and an absolutely, deliberately quiet Bin Laden to elect our very own Obama.
Congratulations.
