The Burlington results.
I got my butt kicked in the JP race – 37th out of 42. I came in behind every other Republican candidate. And that’s with all the lefty blogger support!
(Thanks to Blazing Indiscretions for the results link.)

I will be updating this throughout the night.
Election night. A crazy time for the political hacks. We are all sitting on the edges of our seats, surfing through websites, flipping through TV channels, desperately hoping to find out the results.
I just read that Bernie Sanders won – before the polls were closed. [...]

I finally got around to updating my blog roll. I decided to expand it to include the non-Vermont blogs I read, since my girl Tirade moved to NYC.
By the way, she has an amusing post up about the subway. Check it out.
I also incorporated the lefty blogs in with the rest. I [...]

Get out and vote – not that you need reminding.
I am not going to make any predictions, but I have a feeling we will see a big upset in one of the races that the Democrats are very confident about. Maybe the Rainville – Welch race for congress. I [...]

By now, you have all heard the news about evangelical pastor Ted Haggard and his activities involving a male prostitute.
Some have reacted with glee at this seeming victory over their enemy.
I, personally, have reacted with a deep sorrow – for him, for his family, and for the 14,000-member church he founded.
There are so many layers [...]

Okay, I know this is late, but I have been at a conference all day today (and the past three evenings).
I have thought long and hard about who I should vote for in the U.S. Senate and House races. So long, in fact, that I will have to hand deliver my absentee ballot to [...]

I was just reading the fine bloggers over at Green Mountain Daily discuss the media and how it is the decider when it comes to revealing political bombshells.
That got me thinking about my own dilemma. I have a little bombshell of my own about one of the Democratic superstars in this election. [...]

I am working to get the post up about the congressional races, but to be honest, I still don’t know how I am voting.
Here’s a little spoiler: I can’t get a response from the Sanders campaign on homeschooling and since he is funded by the NEA, which is on record with yearly resolutions calling [...]

I can’t believe I forgot to mention Agnes Clift in my coverage of the Chittenden County Senate race.
You can read about her positions here on her campaign blog.
One of the issues that Agnes has been passionate about is parental notification. Please read her thoughts about this issue before you make your judgments.
To me this [...]
