Re: Election Results
It was an old, and dearly loved, Texan girlfriend of mine who told me that. I think she thought it was a good idea.

We did not get married in church, and we are no less married than people who did.

Re: Election Results
Right now @ 2220hrs:
Dems have 4 Governership gains, 4 House gains (plus Lieberman) and 3 Senate gains.
Karl Rove must be changing his underpants.

My point is that marriage has its roots in religion, rather like Christmas does. I did not mean that all marriages have to involve religion or religious people in this day and age, rather like many of our modern Christmas habits have no religious significance. However this does not change the fact that marriage is/was a religious concept.
So bollocks to you, you daft munter.
EDIT - oh look - munter number 2 has arrived. I have no idea what she has posted as I have her on ignore but I bet she now wishes she had waited for 5 minutes.

Re: Election Results
It seems that the House is a done deal and the Senate is extremely marginal.
The VP has the casting vote. Who becomes Senate leader if Cheney has another heart attack ? With the stress of tonight he may already be having one.

The more important question is ........ Is this an issue you base your choice of candidates upon?
