Most people probably don't know this, but the election in 2000 would not have been so close or hotly disputed if the news networks didn't call the state of Florida for Gore when they did. A small part of Florida is in a different time zone than the rest, and so when the networks called Florida for Gore the polls where still open in that part of the state. Thousands of Bush voters in that part of Florida heard about it and didn't bother to vote, though they would have otherwise. Their votes would have made it a big enough victory for Bush that the controversy would not have happened like it did.
SO, no matter what happens, MAKE SURE TO VOTE EVEN IF YOU HEAR BEFORE HAND THAT IT'S OVER AND THAT KERRY HAS WON. We can't let something like this happen again. DON'T LISTEN TO ANYBODY. MAKE SURE TO GET YOUR VOTE IN. This trick worked so well last time that they might try it again. I was driving to the polling place last time when they said it was over, but it really wasn't. Bush also might have won the popular vote if everyone in the West had still voted who was going to, but didn't after it had been announced that it was over. Don't take into account whether or not you're in a swing state. With all the voter fraud and the Kerry people registering multitudes of dead & non-existent people EVERY state is a swing state.
THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA HAS BEEN PROVEN TO BE A BRANCH OF THE KERRY CAMPAIGN. EXPECT THEM TO BE PLAYING TRICKS AGAIN ON ELECTION DAY..............

YAY!!!! Oh, it's so good to see this kind of enthusiasm!

I've already voted, as have the other three anti-Kerry-ites in the house.

No matter what's happening in the polls, one way or the other, don't be tricked into not voting!

Keep 'er rolling! Right through the closing of the polls in Hawaii, keep 'er rolling! Fight for every last vote!

Thank you for your energy and optimism!

Rumor has it lines will be long and Moveon.org barking moonbats will be standing in lines at heavily Republican precincts just to keep the lines long, as they get near the front they step out and go to the back of the line again....(I know -- stupid waste of 12 hours)
If you cannot stand for more than one hour ....

I SUGGEST YOU TAKE A (light) FOLDING CHAIR, A BOOK, AND ONE OF TWO BUDDIES, FRIENDS, NEIGHBORS. Plan on being in line for a while --- keep a look out for this time on nonsense.

VOTE EARLY IN THE DAY.

THINK ABOUT THE SOLDIERS IN IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN --- THEY SUFFER MUCH MORE THAN AN HOUR OR TWO STANDING IN LINE....

KEEP THE FAITH. KEEP WORKING.

As if. As if anything could stop me from voting.

I do not have any medals, but I will vote wearing a t shirt that has a large picture of my two kids that are now serving in Iraq, taken of them last summer. They are both in their uniforms, my son Army, my daughter Navy, with their arms slung around each other's shoulders and big, happy wecantakeontheworld smiles on their faces. A friend of mine took the picture and transferred onto t shirts for our family. Underneath it says "The faces of hope for the oppressed" And on the right front there is a yellow ribbon.

Pretty cool. You can't wear anything *political* to a polling site, but this isn't political. Cool

I hope the line is long, then people behind me can spend an hour looking at my t shirt. Especially if there are move.on barking moonbats in line-- the slacking sleaze.

I will be voting by mail, but if I saw that happening at a polling place the creeps would catch hell from me, union goons or not.

Spoken like someone who grew up on Marine Corp bases. Very Happy me too SD. I think they put something in their water supply.

Tell the truth, SD: what you really hope is that the barking moonbats will be lined up 20 deep so it gives you an excuse to b*tch slap them.

And any of you guys with war medals be sure to wear them you know that the moon bats have been indoctrinated to be scarred as he!! of you. We will reprogram the moon bats and the rest of the Hollywood indoctrinated idiots after the election, but for now use the Hollywood created mystic to your advantage just stair them down with your medals flashing in their eyes.
