Magavern Report

Over breakfast today Bill observes that today’s polls show Kerry ahead in the “battleground” states and behind nationally raising the realistic chance that Kerry will win the electoral college and lose the popular vote.

Sara (after a brief confusion in which she clarifies that he means Kerry winning the electoral vote and Bush the popular, and not the other way around): so what? we’d still win.

Bill: I suppose we’ll take it anyway we can get it but I’d rather it didn’t happen that way.

Sara: Why? because the Republicans will be living hell for 4 years?

Bill: Yes, but come to think of it, they might finally abolish the electoral college, which probably needs to happen.

Sara: Yeah. N—–! get down here! You’re going to be late for school!! Your hot cereal is getting cold and gross!
