Since I have a direct line to the Deity, I am going to publish the results of the US mid-term elections right here, right now.
Voter Turnout? Lowest on record. Less than 42% of registered voters will bother, which is hardly surprising. The Democrats are the party that stands for Nothing. The Republicans are the party that stands for Nothing, plus God.
Voting Irregularities? Highest on record since the glory days of Chicago in the 1930’s, where the slogan was "Vote early, Vote often." Even such democratic havens as the Philippines, Chile and Uganda will look at the irregularities and say "That ain’t right."
Results? Democrats will have a slim majority in the House, but not the Senate. President JoJo The Idiot Boy will claim it as a victory for those innocent stem cells, being harvested by Evildoers of the Axis of Evil who snatch pregnant women off the street and force them to have abortions. Oh and the troops.
If you think you have political gridlock now, welcome to political constipation that can only result from a diet of oat bran and cheese curds.
Rove, Rumsfeld, Cheney and JoJo The Idiot Boy want to rule by Imperial Fiat, Executive Order and Signing Statement. They will. It will make the glory days of Richard Nixon (`71 to `74) look like a Green Party kaffe-klatch. Expect an Enemies List. Expect the Patriot Act to be expanded. Expect detentions for anyone who dares to speak out or point at things like, oh, The Constitution.
Losers? Anyone who lives in America, who isn’t stinkin’ rich and on the Republican speed-dial. That means you.
