Come Election Day, Martha Fagan won't be anywhere close to her home in Morningside. She, like thousands of other Americans, will be in the mother of all battlegrounds: Florida.

Legions of labor organizers, poll watchers, high-powered lawyers and sneaker-clad volunteers from Maine to California are heading to the Sunshine State. They could be joined by an official election monitoring team from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.

Rory Dubin, 39, listed as a top volunteer recruiter on the Bush-Cheney Web site, said he was confident the election would run smoothly in Florida. Dubin, a resident of Sarasota, welcomed volunteers whose aim would be to get out the vote but objected to too many outsiders involved in an election that is "none of their business."

fucking amazing statement isn't it? Damn.

7. always remember

ReThugs HATE being laughed at. So laugh hard, laugh often, laugh in their face.

They HATE it. Laughter directed toward them is utterly devastating to them. They can't cope with the thought that their views are actually humorous to some people, they bring out their bigot streak in response, and they always, always, always end up looking like the fools they are.

That's NOT my opinion, by the way. It's rock-solid FACT.
