Pondering the Imponderable -- 9:05 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

I did last night what I rarely do, I watched some of the major news outlets to keep up with how the elections were progressing. Now, I'll grant you that I am conservative and so my opinion is obviously biased (as all opinions are). However, I was moved to the point of nausea when I watched Nightline on ABC. They were going on and on in amazement of how the Republicans actually picked up some seats. They went into great detail, outlining how the Democrats will overcome this in 2004. Spin city. At least make an attempt to keep the tissue-thin facade of unbiased reporting intact. I didn't expect congratulations to flow to the GOP, but I would have hoped that they would have at least tried to figure out what (if any) message the American people were sending. Instead, it was more of a DNC strategy session.

Yeah I know this shouldn't surprise me. Maybe I'm just naive. At any rate, this will be the last I'll mention the elections. I promise :)

The Master comments: As I hate politics in general, and don't want to start any flame wars, I'll keep my comment short: I don't like the idea of a one party system. Maybe it's just me, but I don't feel comfortable when the government is run by people who don't need to look to a large minority when they make their decisions. The Democratic party definitely didn't do much in the way of leadership in these elections, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Not that I really want them running things either. Grrr.
