Call me superstitious, but Id be careful with all this 'landslide' talk |
|
I know that's what we all WANT, but I just cant say that. It's a jinx. And remember the electronic voting and the potential for an unbelievable amount of bullshit, wrangling, fighting, lawsuits, CHEATING, etc. Maybe Im delirious from thinking there's only one day left to right 2000 and get rid of this asshat imposter, but I refuse to say landslide.
Just give me the 270 and Im dancing, singing, drinking, screaming, crying, laughing...
please dont flame! Im trying to be practical and realistic, dont want to overdo before tomorrow.

1. Don't be superstitious! |
|
There is no way that just by saying something, it can have an opposite physical effect on that which you want to happen. None.
Say it loud and say it proud....Landslide (but make sure you get out to vote)!
:D

2. Just getting 270 will invite lawsuits all over the place. |
|
We need a landslide to stop them from sueing their way in AGAIN.

5. The landslide thread started as a "visualize victory" thing |
|
Speaking it so - so to speak (LOL).

6. There is no landslide without big turnouts. And big turnouts is what is |
|
already happening in early voting. So the landslide is already on its way, your saying it or not will not stop it.

7. Everyone wants to be a part of the winning team. |
|
Quit being superstitious. People who are going to vote for Kerry aren't going to be dissuaded because a few people predict a landslide.

8. thanks all. Im not saying if I SAY landslide... |
|
there wont be one, but I just dont want there to an atmosphere of OVER optimism, over confidence. I think Im just afraid down to last nerve and hair on my head of BULLSHIT, repeat of 2000, something going wrong.
It's sort of like if it seems too good to be true..
Oh screw it, ignore me, Im having pre-election jitters, I think.
