Well, good luck out there today. Don't be too impatient. Reports of long lines and waits continue. I live in Oregon so I don't have to worry about such things. In fact, I look at reports of waiting any time to vote and am astounded. Does it really have to be like this in the U.S.? Really? Selectin ...>

A wonderful culmination of this seemingly interminable campaign, and a wonderful election result for those of us over here in Oregon (well, mostly). I was impressed by both Sen.

I know this should not surprise me, coming as it is from Newt Gringrich, but... Really? These folks continue their attack on common sense and reality with an abandon I would expect of folks who just don't care anymore and want to "go out in style."
