The line at my voting station was 50% higher than any other time I have ever been there. Normally there are two voters present when I am there (me and my wife). This time we had to actually wait for one person ahead of us!!! Geez, that just consumed our entire day waiting for another voter ahead of us. Well, as we were leaving one other person came in. Ok, ok, so there are 375 registered voters in my precinct, that is why I moved out to the country anyway. :) Sorry you had to wait in a line so long.

Don't be such an idiot. Of course they are. Are ALL people voting along racial/gender lines? Of course not. I might even go so far as to say that the MAJORITY of votes will not fall into this category. But I was told, in line just this morning, by the person in front of me, that she was voting McCain/Palin because she wants to see a woman make it to the Vice Presidency. Somehow, based on your comment and link you placed in the comment form (removed), I think you are just trolling for hits on your site.

Really? I don't think so and while polls lie, people are crossing the race issue. You know for a fact? Really? I don’t think so and while polls lie, people are crossing the race issue.
