So I voted last night in Lower Merion, PA (Read: Main Line Philly):

the people at the empty polling place told me that they were amazed by the relatively high 23% turnout at their polling place. Our election was judicial and school board stuff, but as we all know, the Rethugs conquered much of this country starting at these levels.

I wouldn't miss voting for anything, no matter what. Straight D of course...and no, even I, a rabid pro-Zionist, never ever voted for Arlen Specter of Blessed Memory.

Backin 1980, the choice was Pro-Choice Specter vs Anti-Choice Democrat Pete Flaherty.

what R Senators are capable of doing in general is very dangerous IMO and always has been.
