Today, as you might have heard, is Election Day here in the US. I'm not too concerned about Wisconsin's results, as Sean Duffy (House, 7th district), Ron Johnson (Senate), and Scott Walker (Governor) are expected to win comfortably, throwing out the incumbent bums.
Now, I've heard people talk about an "anti-Democrat" sentiment sweeping through the country. They're wrong. It goes much deeper than that. This is an anti-incumbent mood, very similar to 1994. There have been reports of 50% turnout in some precincts by 9 am! This only happens when people are angry about the direction of the country, two guesses why. (It's the economy, stupid.)
I will wrap up the important election results tomorrow (or whenever they are finalized), and also will be covering it throughout the night on Twitter. The promised Vista rant will have to wait until next week.
Follow me on Twitter @buckybone (or don't, it's not like I'm getting paid for this) and see y'all next time.
