I have to share my dream!
It's both bizarre and wonderful, as dreams often are.

Election night coverage. I'm tuned to NBC and their promised flashy circus (this must be because I had read about their plans or something). Results are just starting to pour in... first New York, in it's unsurprising shade of blue. Brokaw keeps going on and on about how telling it is that Bush only took 10% of the state that was most impacted on 9/11.

Suddenly, lots of results start pouring in. It's one blue state after another, a literal LANDSLIDE. Humorously, the Big Dawg himself is out on the ice rink and placing the blue states in place. Howard Dean and Wesley Clark are sitting along the side of the rink, cheering him on with a beer in each one's hand (dude, ask my subconscious). But there is one red state - Alaska. Just one. Carville is sitting next to Brokaw (again, don't ask) and laughs that Bush didn't even have any continental support.

Then I woke up with a huge smile on my face.

at the Hofbrau (of course), said he had also dreamed that Kerry won big in November. To which his son chimed in, 'and dad's dreams are prophetic.'

2. I can't believe you have political dreams
Last night a huge grizzly bear was chasing me thru the trees (very similar to the scene in The Edge). The trees were breaking, I remember them being white so they were probably birch. I was only about a foot or so out of reach. I could hear him and see his Huge head and white teeth right behind me. It felt like I wasn't getting anywhere but the bear never got me....then I woke up. I have had this dream before. I have never had a political dream.

4. Oh, I have them all the time actually
Probably because this has encompassed my thoughts so much. Sometimes I have dreams that I can translate to relate somehow to world events or politics, but sometimes they're very clear.

I had a dream the other day that I was in DC protesting the inauguration (Bush stole it again). I remember that in the crowd I was hearing reports of riots in major cities... LA, NYC, Detroit, Chicago... and then the police started to open fire into the crowd with those cork-things and I woke up. *shudder*

5. My dream last week . . .
I was sitting next to Nick Nolte at President Kerry's inauguration. There was excitement & electricity in the air & a sense of hope you would not believe.

Like you, I woke up with a big smile!!

(not sure where Nick Nolte came from, tho!)

7. Dreams are weird things aren't they?
I just can't stop laughing at the mental image I have of Clinton laying down blue states on the ice in Rockefeller Center while Clark and Dean drunkenly cheer him on.
