Interesting. Give him a swift kick in the butt for me, will you?

Went and voted. I just walked in, got my little card, voted on the touch screen, and walked out. Took all of about five minutes.

The kids said they held mock elections at their schools. McCain won all around.

Also, no Black Panthers in sight.

Mine reported the same thing a few days back.

I've never really discussed my political views with my my kids, but every time they see Obama's face on the TV, they instinctively start to boo. I'm very proud of them.

They must be more excited in Dayton ... my total vote time was less than 5 minutes.* Of course that was at 4:00 pm.

*I voted today because I don't think my kids are ready for the Dad is an economist and he thinks voting is irrational unless you derive utility from the act of voting speech .

YOhio, this is atrocious coming from someon in a battleground state. My vote is meaningless, except our governor race will be down to the wire.

He's from Carbon County - the Democrat stronghold in the state of Utah. Why expect anything else from him?

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
