Hope all FReepers vote like their future depends on it, because it does! Wisconsin polls open at 7, I will be in line by 6:30.

“Republicans apparently are more hearty and willing to vote no matter the weather, while Democrats apparently are a bit wimpy when it comes to rain, cold and snow.”

If I knew how to do so, I’d post a picture of Gomer Pyle here saying, “surprise, surprise, surprise!”

Here’s a thought. It is hard enough for Obama to get a stadium or arena filled nowdays - even when his audience is PAID in some form or another.

NOW - today..in the rain...how many of these fine upstanding supporters are going to hitch up their pants and get out in the weather to vote for him when there isn’t an immediate government check put in their hands - today.

Weather is the Democrats’ enemy...

Weather is meaningless in early voting states.

If surveys and recent historical data of presidential election turnouts are correct, the crummy weather may make Mitt Romney and other Republican candidates smile.

Sounds like a motivation issue.

On the other hand, If I pulled for Obama and the day is nice and summer-like, I sure wouldn't want to waste it in a dingy polling place.

Indeed, sounds like a motivation issue.

Only "swing" area with inclement weather I see. Shame a winter storm isn't hitting eastern Pa.

I always read that poor weather effects Dems more than the Pubs. Dems can’t get voter ID’s, they can’t figure out butter-fly ballots, they can’t vote in bad weather. What the hell?

Sounds like Mordecai is very worried. Good. We have too many overpaid professors.

You mean the buses bringing voters from Chicago might be delayed? If so, Obama will swing into action and have the Army provide transportation. They have an election to steal, you know.

Getting ready to go vote. It would take an act of the Almighty to prevent my wife and I from voting.

I hope it’s crappy weather everywhere. It won’t stop Republicans, but a slight drizzle will stop demwits in their tracks and they’ll stay bundled up in front of the fireplace at the Starbucks.
