On Election Day eve

I’ve been busy lately with Obama/Biden campaign activities.  Somewhat.  To be honest, I’ve also been feeling disorangized and  not quite sure what I want to write about in this blog.  I am hoping that when the election is over, I’ll be able to make myself unplug a bit from the news cycle and get back to science reporting.  I’ll be voting tomorrow morning, and then carpooling to the Philadelphia metro area for the democratic Get Out The Vote operation.  In addition to Obama/Biden, I’m also watching the senate races in Minnesota and North Carolina closely.  Why? Regarding Minnesota, I read Al Franken’s book Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot when I was in high school, and the notion of him infurating conservatives in congress as he struts down the halls of the US Capitol brings glee to my heart.  And for North Carolina, I’m mainly hoping to see Sen. Elizabeth Dole lose her seat after running this despicable ad that implies atheists are bad people.  And I hope the door hits her in the ass on the way out.
