Election Day is Upon Us

Election day is upon us, tomorrow Americans will head to the polls in record numbers. Their minds have been made up. There is nothing left to say, there is nothing left to write. But I feel as though I should write, so I am going to try.

 I have spent the last several months trying to bring to light Barack Obama’s shady associations, his radical socialistic agenda, and his willingness to silence the opposition by killing free speech. But Barack Obama’s supporters have their minds made up, none of what I have written about bothers those that are voting for him. His supporters believe that I, and all others who have signaled the warning, as bieng paranoid and racist. That’s fine. I don’t care anymore what people out there think of me.

 I have resigned myself to the fact that Barack Obama is going to be the next president of the United States, a country that his wife was never proud of. I am not okay with it but I have to accept it and I have. The only (audacity of) hope that remains is the undecided voters. I believe that the only people who could possibly be undecided are those that desperately want to vote for Obama but have reservations about doing so. Using that theory I think that many undecided voters will break towards McCain. Will it be enough? I doubt it, but you never know. We have seen the media skewer the polls in the Democrat’s favor the last two elections in order to try and suppress Republican turnout. Could this be the case again?

 As I said, I have already resigned myself to the fact that Barack Obama is going to win the election so I am trying to look at other races for a glimmer of hope. I turn toward local politics and find that while New Hampshire will stay blue it doesn’t appear as though Democrats will add to their majority more than one seat in the state senate, and the state house should also remain close to it’s current level. That is a victory, a small one at that but I truly expected the majority to swell. Perhaps it will. The New Hampshire executive council looks poised to swing from a 3-2 Democrat majority to a 3-2 Republican majority. Another small victory if this holds but I will take whatever victory I can get at this point.

 The senate race between John Sununu and Jeanne Shaheen looks fairly close with Shaheen leading, but a strong turnout for McCain could help Sununu. I just have this feeling that McCain is going to pull the upset here in New Hampshire. I have nothing to base this on, just a feeling that I have.

 The New Hampshire Republicans may pick up one house seat if Jeb Bradley can defeat Carol Shea-Porter in a close race.

 I am now looking for any small victory that I can find and at this point with the anti-Republican sentiment being so high it would be a small victory to hold the Democrats from gaining a super majority. That is where I will be focusing my attention tomorrow. It is of the utmost importance that senate Democrats do not gain a 60 vote majority. We can’t afford it, figuratively and literally.

 And in closing, with a President Obama almost a guarantee, I would like to take this time to say that I will treat President Obama with the same respect that the left gave to President Bush.

 It’s the least that I could do.
