Yeeeeah, I’ve completely neglected to use this space at all. I’ve been busy and tired.
That and the whole posting my thoughts online no longer has the same appeal it once did.

Today is possibly the most beautiful day in a very long time. I’ve gone biking, I’m going on a walk with a friend later, and I’m sitting on my front lawn writing this while I wait.
My predictions:
President: Obama. Kerry States + IA, OH, VA, NC, FL, NV, NM, CO, MO (364). Maybe North Dakota, Indiana, Montana, and/or Georgia. Oh, and maybe Arizona too. That would be fun (Up to 406). Of the maybes, ND and MT are most likely going to go together. Georgia and Indiana will be really close. I can’t decide which I think is more likely to go Obama. Arizona is the least likely of the lot.
Senate: Democrats with 59 seats (including Lieberman and Sanders). Pick up AK, CO, NM, NH, VA, NC, OR, MN. Georgia will be close, with either a very narrow victory or a run-off. I’m hoping high African-American turnout will make that a very narrow Martin victory (60 seats!), but I’m also incredibly optimistic. Of these, I’m most likely be wrong about Minnesota. :-/
House: Big democratic gains. A few Democratic losses too, like Tim Mahoney. Maybe Jack Murtha. At home in DeKalb, Bill Foster will keep his seat. Here in Northfield, John Kline will probably keep his seat.
Of course, I’m going from a complete lack of polling here, and Sarvi may pull it off if Franken and Obama post big wins.
I’ve obviously gotten rid of all of the old content, which makes this seem kind of empty.
I still want a better title, so if anyone has any suggestions, let me know.
Even if I never come up with a better title, I do plan to update this on occasion. Most likely incredibly short posts summarizing what’s going on in my life. Or incredibly short posts about politics. That’s about it. o_O
