Tizzie, Alias ReevesJust to confuse y'all, this is Tizzie posting as Reeves because, well, because I can, dammit. And while all of you are worrying about getting rid of Bush, us Kentucky Democrats are trying to elect a pig as the mayor of Rabbit Hash, and get rid of one of the nastiest men I've ever had the horror of meeting, Jim Bunning. Bunning's race has gotten some national attention because some generous souls thought his "erratic behavior", (like calling his 40-year-old Italian bachelor opponent a 'limpwrist' and saying he looked like one of Saddam's sons) was a sign that he has Alzheimers. Alzheimers, my ass. His "behavior" is the result of the fact that he's a mean old bastard. So keep your fingers crossed on this one, if you've got any fingers to spare. Posted by Reeves at 09:41 AM

Speaking as a bastard who hopes to one day be a mean old bastard, I say: Go Bunning!
Posted by: Fes at November 2, 2004 10:04 AMI used to work with Bunning's nephew back in my bookstore clerk days. He was very liberal himself, to the point of chiding me for some of my more retrograde attitudes. But he had some affection for his unc, especially since that's how he acquired his autographed Big Red Machine ball. And Jim Bunning did pitch a perfect game, so he can't be completely evil, right?
But I'm here in NYC, so I'm just gonna head out to Queens after work and vote for my man Kerry. Any reports on the clarity/confusingness of the ballot?
Posted by: jonmc at November 2, 2004 11:26 AMmy ballot was pretty straightforward. the machine was from 1878, but you can't have it all...
Posted by: reeves at November 2, 2004 11:39 AMThe ballot's easy. Took me about twenty seconds to vote.

Posted by: Vidiot at November 2, 2004 06:42 PMperfect game in the a.l. and the n.l.
that makes him overqualified to be either a mean old bastard or a u.s. senator.
I heard his radio ads when I was in Western KY a couple of weeks ago - he could barely get through the ``I am Jim Bunning and I endorse this message'' part. He is spooky gone.
