Who's coverage will you be watching on Tuesday night?
I was thinking I would watch Tweety mostly - he seems to have interesting and not totally whorish people on alot of the time, flip over to Comedy Central when their 1 hour special started. I'm not sure I'll be in the mood for funny at that time though. Then maybe if Kerry started winning, I would flip over to FAUX to watch them all eat sh*t when their boy goes down in flames.

5. I was thinking about doing that too
I might still just flip around for the most interesting guests but I really think I'll be too drunk to channel-surf effectively most of the night.

3. I'll be at work...
which will make it interesting, since my workplace is split about 50/50 Dems/Reps. I would like to be at home watching the returns, rather than at work. On the bright side, though, I at least have a living wage job- unlike most of my friends with degrees.

4. If all goes well and I don't get stuck too late at the office, I'll be in
Copley Square with John Kerry.

7. CBC and some channel flipping
I'm having a bunch of wonderful people over election night- I met all of them through Kerry meet-ups and through Move On and ACT participation. I'm the only one with school age kids (all theirs are grown and gone) so everyone graciously agreed to come to my house so I don't have to get home to get the kids to bed!

Since I get Newsworld International and the CBC live coverage will be on I just might use that as my primary source, with lips to the networks, CNN and MSNBC. I WILL NOT watch Fox. Bad Karma.


BTW- I'm new and cant post a thread so I'm gonna post my 10 year old son's scary Halloween story here-
Here goes-

Warning- it's scary! (He actually told this to people while trick or treating today!)

Once upon a time there was man named George W, Bush
He was the President of the United States
THE END

8. DISH Network has special election coverage
Where you can flip channels with ease.. the channels are:

CNN, Fox News (GAG), C-SPAN, MTV, Comedy Central and MSNBC.

So we will be flipping through them all, but I expect we'll spend an hour watching Jon Stewart.

I'm so excited...

12. Probably Fox News
I'll be listening to Air America's team coverage (all through the night, instead of their normal repeats), and taping the Daily Show (live, starting at 10 Eastern, so set your VCRs!) but I'll probably have the TeeVee tuned to Fox News for the schadenfreude value.

13. I won't be just listening to Air America, I'll be WITH them!!
I intern at AAR and we're having a party at an undisclosed (for good reasons) location in NYC. Tune into AAR for all of the tomfoolery! Hehe...
