The Revolution will be Litigated
I believe the upcoming election will be litigated. Litigated, lawyered, and justicized until we're all half mad. We are going to learn about the election laws of Dullard County, Ohio and Shitheel Township, Florida in ridiculous sleepy detail. Insomniacs might pray for wakefulness again before it's all done.
But when will it all be done?
I'm asking for guesses. Will the election be sufficiently settled by Thanksgiving, say?

And if it do happen, it won't be settled until 2008.

Our shanigans are cheeky and fun. Their shenanigans are cruel and tragic. Which means that not really shenanigans at all. Evil shenanigans.

Sounds about right.
Not settled until 2008? Also right - there are still far too many maundering fuckwits who can't come to terms with the 2000 election. I see no reason for that to change this cycle.
Prediction: Sometime between Thanksgiving and Dec 13 (the actual election), I expect the hullabaloo to have ended.
