A scary Halloween with Sarah Palin

In central Pennsylvania, the Republican base is afraid of Obama, and lost in fever dreams of a neo-Soviet nightmare. But it's all in God's hands.

    Tip your fence sitter!!

    If you know someone who is sitting on the fence, please use your powers of persuasion. I tipped my fence sitter by persistently informing her of the facts - without being overbearing or obnoxious. She voted yesterday in Ohio and she told me as she stood there "you betcha" and my rant about crazy Pentecostal Bitches and Mean Old War Hawks flashed in her mind and she touched the screen for Obama. YAY!

    Please, please, please try - believe me, it's not too late. I know that I did my best and even though I'm wracked with anxiety about this election, I think I'll be able to wake up November 5th, after what I know will be a hellacious day as a poll worker, without guilt. I hope.
