An email on Hugh Hewitt's site

Just got this from Hugh Hewitt's blog on Townhall.com.  I'm posting the entire email here, because it's so short.

Hugh,

I just got through voting here in Virginia, and climbed in my car to
drive to work and heard the "news" about how McCain is soooo far
behind Obama it is practically over already. and I want you to say to everyone out there:

Don't listen to the left "news".  What I saw while voting was the
exact opposite of what I heard on the radio as soon as I was done.

When I arrived, the turnout was phenomenal - I've voted every
opportunity I've had since I turned 18, and I have never seen a
turnout like this.  It took a while to find parking, and then I had
to walk a ways to get to the voting place.  Then, when I got in line,
I began to watch closely to see what people were doing.  The majorityof the people in line were holding the Republican sample ballot.  I saw a few holding the Democratic sample ballot, a few holding both, and a few holding neither.  BUT THE GREAT MAJORITY WERE PROUDLY HOLDING THE REPUBLICAN SAMPLE BALLOT.  Not just that, but the gentleman handing out the Democratic sample ballots actually looked very embarrassed and was begging people to take his ballots.  I feltsorry for him, but I wasn't about to take a ballot since I want
people to realize McCain HAS A VERY GOOD FIGHTING CHANCE!

Please pass this on to your listeners... and keep spreading the word.

God Bless and Preserve this Nation UNDER GOD!

I hope so!

Maybe it's just my experience, but I've never known a place to separate ballots by party affiliation in a general election, only in the primary??

Believe he's talking about a party mailer sent as part of a GOTV effort, showing what the ballot will look like and indicating who the Party's favored candidate is in each race, possibly also taking sides on any propositions or initiatives, not an official part of the ballotting.

there is, but to a smaller degree.



what is important today however is the weather report.



Its been my observation that Democrats hate voting in the rain.

Illinois is big on coal. Through my work, I had heard of plans to open some new mines in the southern part and to expand some in the south central part.  I'm sure that may change within the next year, if...........
