I Slept in to Watch Dixville Notch Midnight ET Tonight: Who's up with Me?

[CorpGovActivist]

Gotta love this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dixville_Notch">tradition.

Give a shout out if you'll be up watching too.

Predictions on the first township tally?

1. i'm on the west coast, it's prime time for me.

[CorpGovActivist]

10. It's an Election, CA Doesn't Count

:sarcasm:

I think a national primary is a great idea. Do 51 x 2 or 51 x 3 debates (states/DC * multiplier).

Then, hold a national primary.

year. My son has to be at his school at 6:00 A.M. for wrestling boot camp.:grr:

[CorpGovActivist]

6. Wah! I miss The West Wing!

I loved, loved, loved the episodes about how the Bartlett administration came together and especially the New Hampshire part of the story. I may as well stay up tonight, I can't sleep lately anyway.

[CorpGovActivist]

9. My TiVo Is Well-Trained...

11. Will do!

No predictions from me, haven't a clue!

[Neecy]

7. I'll be watching, too

After all of these months we're now into the fun stuff, and Dixville Notch is definitely the fun stuff. I think this small town casting ballots at midnight is not only charming but a symbol of democracy...what's left of it...

[CorpGovActivist]

19. Amen for Small Town Democracy! n/t

[gateley]

8. This sounds like fun - wish I lived there. I'd vote for Biden. Is it going to be on C=Span? nt

[Sparkly]

29. I can't watch!!

:cry: :cry: :cry:

I still think the world of General Clark.

[elleng]

31. Sparkly,

so do I.

;-(

[CorpGovActivist]

32. General Clark - Rhodes Scholar - Is Brilliant...

... but he really should look at the corner office of a state, I think, to cement the deal.

- Dave

[Sparkly]

39. Definitely not.

After a stellar international career, he's going to supervise road-building projects?

I think not.

[CorpGovActivist]

41. Shows Application of His International/Military Experience...

... to domestic side of the coin.

General George C. Marshall did not demean himself by taking the SecState role.

- Dave

[Sparkly]

51. SoS, fine.

Governorship? No. His military career included enough management of "domestic" issues.

[Tatiana]

52. **Sniff**

:cry:

President Clark... what could have been!

[cali]
