We are right here in the shadow of the Bush Ranch, Repub all the way. There was a line, the parking lot was nearly full, but the poll workers were masterful at efficiently moving folks through. The turnout was heavy and I guarantee it was heavy McCain/Palin. I have been very nervous about this election, but recently I have a gut feeling of a huge surprise in store for the Dems. Btw, did I mention I love Sarah Palin? The missus and I voted – early, a week and a half ago. We are right here in the shadow of the Bush Ranch, Repub all the way.
