Election Eve post - Kick 'em out!

In the Delco Times yesterday...
Bill Bender wraps up the pre-election part of his series with 7th Spotlight: Where do candidates stand? This is an attempt to unravel Sestak's and Weldon's positions and provide real live factual information on the candidates' positions. Well done Bill and I've enjoyed your many articles in the 7th Spotlight.

It ends with the comment on Weldon, "As long as Weldon isn’t indicted after the election..." Yes, that's a big IF! Hey, why take a chance on damaged goods?!

And today...
The Delco Times Editor Phil Heron goes all internet interactive on us!
In today's online edition, Heron asks us to post a comment to his piece: Decision '06: Cast your vote -- and your opinion!
Start the stopwatch. We are now less than 24 hours away from one of the most anticipated elections in Delaware County history.

And we'd like you to be a part of it. You can share your thoughts on the election and this extraordinary "Decision '06."

Simply click on the "Post Comment" link at the bottom of this story. I will review the messages several times during the day and post them to our Web site.

Can Curt Weldon hold off both the challenge of Democrat Joe Sestak as well as the Justice Department probe that has cast a shadow over his campaign in the last few weeks?


Get in there and post your comments! Wow...I'm impressed! What's next? I predict a new Delco Times Blog starting soon. Maybe call it "Heron's Nest"?

Alex Rose's article is a person on the street account, which starts with this quote from someone ready to vote tomorrow, "My plan is to vote Democratic for everything, hopefully just to create some more balance, some more checks and balances for our president..."

I couldn't agree more, and will add this graphic encouragement to Vote for Joe Sestak:

Guys, it's been fun. I'll be out there on pavement for the whole day.

Ever onward!

What's more important than who you vote for is that you vote. Many people have given their lives for that freedom. Don't waste their sacrifice. Get out and vote!

Plucking daisy petals...

Vote for Sestak ... vote for Weldon...
Vote for Sestak ... vote for Weldon...
Vote for Sestak ... vote for Weldon...

... only a 5 year old child would be so undecided at this point.

Step away from the computer screen... And get out there and vote. You can come back and look at the computer screen later.

I'll post something about the Sestak Victory (yes, victory, that's my prediction) Party.

Beyond that, who knows? If the site is still up, I'm sure Weldon's denials during the rest of the FBI investigation and/or other revelations catch my interest.

It's been a fun ride. And thanks to the readers that gave me support and the "anonymous" guys that gave me ammunition.

Joe Sestak's Victory Party was great! The highlight, of course, was his acceptance/thank you speech. Joe gave a heartfelt, heartwarming speech in which he thanked everyone who had a part in helping the campaign, introduced his siblings,who shared the stage with him and Susan, and gave special tribute to his father, former Navy Captain Joseph Sestak, who was Joe's inspiration to attend the Naval Academy. Joe called for an end to partisanship and asked that we, as Americans, not Democrats, Republicans or Independents, move forward in a spirit of cooperation to work on programs that this country needs to assure our national security. It was a great night!
