I'll let others* more politely request that you vote tomorrow (assuming you haven't already done so in those states that allow it) -- this image over here much more accurately reflects my actual feelings. [*In a twist, I attempt to be one of those "others" in my bonus post as part of my 100 Things series for today.]
And look, I know that talking heads won't be completely silenced (they'll just move on to fear mongering when it comes to the upcoming fiscal cliff -- regardless of which person wins -- and that in and of itself assumes that one person can be quickly declared a winner, as my actual feeling about that is that this scenario could go on in an unresolved manner for as long [or longer than] Gore/Bush '00.)
All things considered, I've been lucky compared to my PA peeps who speak of 5-6 robo-dialed calls each day for the last few days. [To be clear -- campaign-fatigue is NOT an acceptable reason for NOT voting. Muster through and VOTE (or shut up).]
Nasty comments in ads on TV or in updates on FB or tweeted in the Twittersphere or included in debates or omnipresent in the news cycle ... you will NOT be missed!
