going politico

November 8, 2006

kill me now

I stayed up way too late last night watching the election returns, but my perserverence did nothing to stem the tide of idiodic Idahoans. The whole state started the evening pink, and became redder as the night wore on. State, I am mad at you, except for Blaine and Latah counties (yes, Ada, you are on my shit list this morning. I'm hoping we can make up after the precinct level results are available and maybe I will just be on fire cranky with Meridan, but at this point I just don't know if we can still be friends.).

While my initial response is to repeat my annual declaration that I'm moving to San Francisco, my wise friend LG has a proposal that might actually make a difference--at least, I think it has had an impact in the aforementioned Blaine County. Her plan? I think the solution for Idaho is a massive influx of liberals. Hollywood has so many to spare. If Hollywood really wants to make a difference, they will implement this plan instead of all the other bullshit they are always spouting about. Even though I am certain that this would cause even more problems with ballooning property values, at least we might get some socially conscious leadership instead of geniuses like this to come up with some coping strategies.
