Seems to be running smoothly now that Jim’s here. :)
I don’t vote for people who are unopposed and when I tried to put my completed ballot in the machine it was rejected. A “judge” explained to me that it was rejected because the machine wouldn’t take it if any of the spaces were left blank and asked if I wanted to leave it that way. I told him indeed I did. So he explained to me that he would have to over ride the machine, he acted as if he were aggravated with me for not filling the ballot out all the way. I told him to “over ride away mate”.

That’s right, Jim, you’re our American Idol, the other is only a TV show.
Trip to New Hampshire where he lectured Americans to stop spending money in Las Vegas instead of paying their mortgage and stop buying boats instead of saving to send their children to college.
The man is certifiable.
