*yawns* Sooooo sleepy. I think I might go back to bed after posting this. In the meantime, have some linkspam!

++ Let's see, I guess we should start out by mentioning Saddam Hussein has been sentenced to death by hanging for crimes against humanity. Good fucking riddance.

++ Democratic win may prod Bush on Iraq.

++ The Red-State revue, starring GW Bush.

++ BBC profiles Nancy Pelosi.

++ Gah! - "An ABC News undercover investigation showed Army recruiters telling students that the war in Iraq was over, in an effort to get them to enlist."

++ GOP losing more ground according to a new Newsweek poll.

++ Democrats seek big gains in final push.

++ NYT: "If Democrats really do shake up Republicans on Tuesday, voters will have pulled off more than an upset. They will have turned that convenient tool of politics - Conventional Wisdom - right on its head."

++ James Wolcott has a brilliant op-ed in Vanity Fair asking, "If the blue states are sinkholes of moral decay, as right-wing pundits insist, how come red states lead the nation in violent crime, divorce, illegitimacy, and incarceration, among other evils?" Heheheheheh.

++ Polls see Republicans keeping Senate control. Boo, hiss.

++ Time Poll: Registered Republicans less enthusiastic about voting than Democrats.

++ Voters in center may get their say.

++ Time's cover story is on God vs Science, and Newsweek's is on An Evangelical Identity Crisis.

++ Finally, Happy Guy Fawkes Night to my UK friends!
