Turning Blue
1. Doing my part to pass along the shoot-themselves-and-each-other-in-the-foot-isms of the right: From Boing Boing, from Salon: Televangelist says: “A vote for Romney is a vote for Satan”:
He would influence people to seek out the Mormon faith… They would get sucked into those lies and they would eventually die and go to hell.
-Televangelist Bill Keller
Keep talkin’, wackos. Keep right on talkin’…
2. Congrats to Charlottesville City Council Dem winners David Brown, Holly Edwards, and Satyendra Huja. And congrats to all 5 candidates for a good, thoughtful race.
And congrats to Denise Lunsford for winning the Commonwealth’s Attorney race in Albemarle County. Good riddance to bad rubbish in that race.
Still too close to say for sure, but it looks like the Dems will retake the State Senate.
3. Ouch. Nationals star 3rd Baseman (and UVa alum) Ryan Zimmerman broke a bone in his wrist and will likely have surgery. But he’s expected back in plenty of time for next season.
4. Another Holman Lumberyard Photo. Northport, Alabama.
