				What network will everyone be watching Tuesday night?  After the 2000 debacle, I'm not sure which to tune into.
 
 
I'm going to vote after work, pick up a pizza, go home and relax and then CELEBRATE!! |

				In honor of Kerry's defeat I'll be flip-flopping channels.  
 
I'll probably start with FOX & C-SPAN, since I consider them more trustworthy.
 
I always channel surf, though, and look for commentators that I like (or at least ones I can handle). |

				| Brit Hume will be hosting on FOX News, Shep will be hosting the local Fox Affiliates coverage.  So there are two different Foxes you can watch. |

				I'll admit that FOX is more trustworthy than the alphabets, but this election has seen them inch toward the dark side.  O'Reilly has sold out altogether.
 
C-Span is trustworthy.  The just show a feed.  Virtually no editorial content. _________________ Swift Boats - Qui Nhon (12/69-4/70), Cat Lo (4/70-5/70), Vung Tau (5/70-12/71) |

				Possibly the Cartoon Network..or perhaps I'll just put in a good movie. I don't know if I can take the election night coverage..being in NY it will be a long night before we know what the outcome is. It might be enough to drive one mad... I like my tv too..so I wouldn't want to throw anything at it   
 
 
 
I'll definatley be here though..hitting the refresh button. I know some brave souls here will be watching tv and keeping us up updated. |

				I'll mostly watch FOX, but I'll check in on the other networks, too. I wanna see the sad looks on all the depressed anchors' faces.   _________________ "If I must choose between righteousness and peace, I choose righteousness." -- Theodore Roosevelt |

				Channel surf until around 265 - 269 EV and then watch Dan Rather on seeBS. _________________ I was going to become an anarchist, but they had too many rules. |

I want to see that smug look wiped off of Alan Colmes' face!!!  I want to see him try to spin DEFEAT!!!!  (Do I sound a little vindictive?  Sorry, it's been a long campaign, and that man has sorely tried my patience!).
 
 
And, if the miracle happens and Bush takes New York - hey, it CAN happen - you will probably all here me screaming like an idiot all the way to sunny California (okay, at least my neighbors will hear me!). |
