Election Day!

Today is the real election. In a process understood by the poli-sci geeks and a few others, the people you were REALLY voting for on November 4 will gather in the capitals of the states and elect our next president and vice-president, presumably Osama Bin Laden and William Ayers.

...seriously, though, there are historical precedents for faithless electors mocking the system -- or mocking their party's losing candidate, at least. Would anyone care to bet on how many electoral votes Sarah Palin collects today?

Probably more than you realize. Republican friends of mine strongly believe she will be their next candidate.
