Well, here we are. Thirty five days from Election Day. Five weeks from tonight, I’ll probably be sitting where I am now blogging about the returns as states close their precincts. Before this point, I didn’t care too much about the polling data. It was all pretty worthless before because we were too far away from November.

New Cars That Run on Beer…
It occurred to me this week that this is pretty much what John Kerry is doing: he’s promising new cars that run on beer. Well, OK…perhaps not in a literal sense. However, since Carville and Begala became “unpaid advisers” to the Kerry campaign, it seems like he’s left Vietnam behind and is attempting to go toe-to-toe with George Bush on Iraq and the War on Terror. The problem is, John Kerry doesn’t have the record or the credentials to wage this fight.

A Day Frozen in Time Forever…
I awoke three years ago today to the smell of brewing coffee, as I normally do. On Tuesday, September 11, 2001, I went through my standard morning ritual: coffee, email, shower, laptop bag, car. Just before going out the door, I set my coffee mug down on the counter and picked up my keys.

See This? This is My Boomstick…
This past weekend found Democrat nominee John Kerry in West Virginia where he attended a picnic hosted by the United Mine Workers of America. The Senator was presented with a union-made shotgun as a gift and said, “It’s a beautiful piece. It’s a beautiful gift, Cecil, but I can’t take it to the debate with me.”
