...AND THE OSCAR GOES TO...
oh, wait, it's just election day. Sorry.

I'm proud to say that my congressional district was one of the many yesterday that turned-out its Iraq-war supporting republican and elected this guy our congressman. He's actually a musician and founder of the band Orleans. I don't really know the band although I pretended I did when one of his campaign workers (with alcohol on her breath) stopped me at the Yorktown Grange Fair. Now that I think about it, this is not actually my congressional district now but the one I grew up in. Oh well. It was nice while it lasted.

A couple of other favorites I noticed - New Jersey's district 3 where voters had to choose between a guy named Saxton and another named Sexton. I'm sure they're vastly different candidates (yeah right) but it seems funny that their names are only one mere vowel different. I don't know why that's funny but it is. And also New Jersey's district 4 where the voters opted not to elect Gay to office - God forbid Gay should represent us!! We want Smith - yeah Smith. That's a name with character and integrity. Not like "Gay" - bleh.

Hillary got re-elected along with Arnold. New York has a new governor as does Mass. and Ohio - all democrats. Ohio with a democrat for governor...did we just elect Hillary as our first female president? Hmmm.
