Note: I'm even less fit for human consumption than usual, so my contributions to this or anything else remotely social for a bit will be brief -- in fact, this post is only appearing via the magic of JustBlogIt, a Mozilla extension you must try to appreciate, as it makes updating a blog virtually effortless. Which I need, now that Muffin won't get off my keyboard and is attacking my fingers, so please excuse the typos....

mightygodking: Endorsements Dept.
I was chatting with a American friend of mine recently, and said friend is one of those legendary "undecided voters" - to wit, not registered with either party, and says she is "on the fence" - which is really a polite way of saying she's voting for Kerry and doesn't feel satisfied about doing so, which was what most people who "are on the fence" in fact are doing (and usually for Kerry because that's how undecideds historically vote). And in said chat, she said to me, "I know the case against Bush, I understand that. I just wish there was a reason for me to vote FOR John Kerry." And after some thought, I gave her the reasons that I could offer to vote proactively for John Kerry rather than "anyone but Bush". I thought I would repeat them here.

Some pundits are saying the conventional wisdom about undecideds breaking to the challenger is wrong in presidential elections. Although it might be right for House and Senate races, undecideds might break for the incumbent in presidential races.
If you are still undecided at this point, with such obvious differences in the candidates, you are too stupid to vote and should stay home on Tuesday.
Why to vote FOR Kerry, because that is who Usama wants you to vote for (http://ace.mu.nu/archives/052669.php). Kerry would relegate him as a nuisance and allow Usama to regroup and attack again. Besides being full of DNC talking points and Fahrenheit 9/11 references, Usama's tape was like a kid at recess making the T motion with his hands. Time-out, time-out! We need to keep the pressure on Usama and not return to a law-enforcement mentality.

Concurred. Trey and Matt hit the point home in the newest "South Park" -- and "Team America," for that matter. Chris in that movie is my new hero. And I need the soundtrack.
And congrats this week. Good God. It's like Chefs/Colts all over again. And Peyton's team loses again.

Oy what a game. I STILL have a headache from yelling. I was moments away from having an aneurysm, I swear. Between the horrible, horrible officiating (#22 should never work for the NFL ever again), the fake punt on the first drive (why didn't Dungy just get on the loudspeaker and tell us all to f*** ourselves? It wouldn't have pissed us off as much as the punt fake did.) and Peyton's Chicken Dance playcalling that crowd was ANGRY. And the perfect end to the Peyton Career Day.
America! F*** YEAH!!
