I voted this morning at 8am, and though the lines weren't as crazy as the reports we're getting from Lo and the rest of my New York intronauts, I was still surprised we had to wait. Even in deep blue Massachusetts they're predicting an additional million voters this year. All generated, I'm sure, by America's need to hear more of Joe the Plummer's really insightful analysis and Sarah Palin's mastery of domestic and international policy.
I took tomorrow off so I can properly (hopefully) celebrate this historic night. After watching early reviews with a few fellow liberals, Mrs. Mantis and I are planning on meeting up with Mosart at The Independent at Union Square in Somerville, spinning a little funk/soul for the revelers while we watch late returns roll in, hopefully by the time I get there we'll be raising a glass (or 12) to history.
