The polls open here in about an hour, and I expect to cast my ballot (I can&#8217;t help but still think of it as &#8220;pulling the lever&#8221;) at about 6:15 or so on my way to work.  This being New York and not Florida or Ohio, I&#8217;m not expecting a line.  Lots of people say, no matter who you vote for, please be sure to vote.  I&#8217;m not one of those people.  If you plan to vote for Romney, don&#8217;t bother.  He&#8217;s not a <strong><em>real<\/em><\/strong> Conservative.  He&#8217;s not a real Christian.  He&#8217;s a two-faced, lying loser, and if you&#8217;re not a gazillionaire and you vote for him, he&#8217;ll be laughing at you tonight.  And then he&#8217;ll fuck you over if he wins.  So if you&#8217;re planning on voting for him, stay home today.  But if you&#8217;re gonna vote for Obama, then get out there and vote and stand in line if you have to (easy for me to say, I know, &#8216;cuz we don&#8217;t have lines here).  <a href=\"http:\/\/morningseditionists.com\/mschat3\/\">The chat room is open if you want to hang out while the returns come in<\/a>.  I don&#8217;t know how many people will actually use it (certainly nowhere near as many people as last time it was in use &#8211; back in 2008, believe it or not). I checked it with my Android tablet, and it works, so I&#8217;m hoping it works on an iPad (amazing that neither of those two things were invented back in &#8217;08).  Let&#8217;s just hope we don&#8217;t have to suffer through a Romney win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, finally, it&#8217;s Election Day.
