 I did.

I just could not bring myself to vote for that blue dog Jane Harman...

So...

I left that spot blank.

First time I ever did that.

2. You know, DeFazio is running FOR logging
 but despite that, and his running against the stimulus and against government waste and against TARP which was ESSENTIAL, - I voted for him any*******way.

I don't know why in the hell people think ANY candidate is perfect. Some of them are a damn sight different when they're at home then when they're in DC.

Shame on you Peggy.

14. I'm not understanding your meaning... 
 Do you mean by not voting for the blue dog, this hurts the House Dems?
 

Uh. Oh.

16. It sure as hell does if Harman doesn't win. She is a vote for Nancy. She is a vote for holding the
 House by Democrats. That's what she was. Take Jane out in the Primaries. Vote for the Dem in the General Election.

18. Ah, but Jane will win. 
 I wouldn't have done it otherwise...

Stop worrying!

We tried, and failed to take her out in the Primaries.

I know she will win; she always does. 

I gotta keep my eyeballs on that race too.

I did see a ballot get thrown out today.

Some 60 something old hippy comes diddy bopping up to the receptacle to deposit her ballot. I had filed my ballot and was waiting for my wife. She had her ballot in full view of everyone. The optical scan voided her ball and gave the election official posted at the scanner an error message on the screen. She had voted straight moonbat and filled in one mark for a Judge of a different party. The election official told her he had to void the ballot and she could vote again. She said no and walked out. I guess she thought that the race she double dipped would get voided, not the entire ballot.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

I did - but those were uncontested low position seats held by Democrats.

But I DID vote - and made sure that I voted against Deval Patrick, Martha Coakley, and most importantly.. Barney Frank. - I also voted for every other Republican on the ballot.
