I wish i could've posted this last night, but i got home too late. The primary part of the election yesterday went ok. i still wasnt convinced that voting with a diebold machine was the best way, but whatever. the caucus part of the election was a DISASTER.

I voted just a few minutes ago, and let me tell you, lines for the democratic primary were great. Republican voters, not so many.
But what i really wanted to ask people here at DK if they trusted voting on Diebold machines. Because thats what i had to do, there were no handwritten ballots, no punch cards, nothing!

For those of you that were skeptical about the blackout that happened in Alabama:
According to the New York Times

The station, in Huntsville, said that after a review, it had concluded that the blackout was related to a similar interruption during a basketball game the day before.

Not so long ago i happen to catch a re-run of the Daily Show in which Chris Matthews gets grilled by Stewart. i thought, what a jerk!
I felt that Jon Stewart had been too hard on Chris. He was there to promote his book and Jon had been making fun of Chris' answers and book. I felt sorry for him. I had regularly watched the Chris Matthews show on NBC right after Meet the press, and had felt his show was informative. He would inject his opinion, but i never took it that he strayed too far from either side of the political spectrum. to borrow a quote from fox, i thought he was fair and balanced. Now...

Hillary in OH, Barack in TX. Both had speeches last night in front of huge crowds. HUGE! and it just wasnt yesterday. McCain, i dont know where he was at, but im pretty sure you couldnt fit a fraction of people of what Barack or Hillary had.

Ever since Joe Lieberman lost the 2006 senatorial primary in CT, hes been fucking over Democrats in many ways. The question i have for the Democratic "Leadership" is, why do we keep putting up with this?

As i was watching the results from yesterday's primary i noticed something none of the pundits raised, which was record numbers come out againg for the Democrats than did the Republicans. I thought i would write these numbers down and share them with you.
