All this election has proven is that corruption and money trump integrity every time. Mr. “Game-Changer” showed that he has no more character than the creeps on Capitol Hill. For a guy who so loudly opposed the “trickle-down” theory of economics, he certainly didn’t mind abandoning his promise to stay away from corporate funding in this election. After breaking his promise, he received a whole bunch of corporate “trickle” which enabled him to outspend McCain (who stuck to his word) by hundreds of millions of dollars on advertising, flooding the airwaives in key battleground states with up to four times as many ads as the GOP. I guess the evils of TDE only apply to the other guy, huh Barry?

Obama’s no different than anyone else, as you will soon see. But, hey, what can I say? Love is blind, isn’t it?

As of 2:20 PM Wednesday, Goode’s lead was a mere six votes, out of over 314,000 cast. Perriello is waiting for the provisional ballots to come in.

Think those 170 writein voters are wishing they had made a different choice?

I wouldn’t count on it. There was a campaign to have people write in their support of a national retail sales tax which Goode also supports. I suspect that between them and those who just wrote in whatever, they aren’t too upset.

By the way, Goode’s lead is down to 140 votes.

I told you Nye had backing older than Congress itself.
