Red Sox win World Series; Bush is re-elected to 2nd term

The score thus far:

Conservative Red Sox fans: seventh Heaven.
Liberal Yankees fans: ninth circle of Hell.

As for liberal Red Sox fans or conservative Yankees fans... I dunno. Somewhere in between, I suppose. Personally, I can handle the fact that my Yankees lost to the Red Sox (which, I suppose, represents some form of baseball Armageddon). Bush being re-elected? No, I'm not quite at peace with that. The difference? When my Yankees lost, it didn't imply the inception of the United Theocracy-Plutocracy of America. Bush's election victory does. Crap. We are so screwed.

Holy shit

At this point (12:34 AM EST), according to NPR's projections, Bush leads Kerry 246 to 206. Kerry needs to sweep the rest of the upper Midwest (Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa). Fuck. If Kerry pulls ths off, it's gotta equal the Red Sox coming back from 0-3.

Dammit. I don't think I can handle all the conservative gloating if Bush ends up being re-elected. Oh wait, NPR's calling Minnesota for Kerry. Make that Bush: 246 Kerry: 216. Fuck! This feels like the ALCS Games 4 and 5 all over again.

Fuck! Fuck! Fuckity fuck!
