3.11.04I'm Not Sure 'Conceded' Is the Right WordBeing an account of the election & the public voice.
6.54: I get to a TV. Hours of handsome talking experts. 7.33: A leftover cheese platter makes an important appearance. The election is still fun! 8.01: Anne Wolfe is going to lose. 9.32: Someone has made (made, I say) four stromboli. Howsa! 11.13: The entire center of the country (one of them) turns red. A vision of the Lord Jesus riding his uranium chariot on a sea of money, the Lasers of Justice blazing from his eyes. 11.40: The math begins to be disturbing. The NYT Electoral Calculator is down. Everything has to be done from memory. 12.55: I switch from scotch & beer to glasses of flaming pitch. 12.59: I stop watching the returns. I ride in a car to the bar. 1.25: A Republican (!) is getting hassled. He's handling it pretty well. 1.47: It's over. I am an evangelical Christian. The moon stands still in the sky. 3.01: Verses: It's hardly in a body's pow'r, To keep, at times frae being sour, To see how things are shar'd. |
