Several of you have been asking for an update to my predictions for the Election between John McCain and Barack Obama, tomorrow, November 4, 2008.

I’ve been hesitant to share, because the polling has been so strange.

Four Years ago, I retold the diabolical tale of my disenfranchisement by The-Evil-Doctor-Merlin-Channing-Lowe-Jr.

I knew this election was important, so I made every effort to thwart Dr. Chan’s obvious attempts to nullify my right to vote.

I said it before, and I’ll say it again:

I promise to… Support the President, even if I didn’t vote for him… Criticize the President, even if I did vote for him… Uphold standards of civilized discourse in blogs and in media while pushing both to be better… Unite as a nation, putting country over party, as we work together to make America better.

And you , the reader, can hold me to this.

I just crossed Patrick O’Brian’s The Far Side of the World off of the Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com Reading List.

This is a personal milestone for me, as I started to read the Aubrey-Maturin Series after the movie, Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World; not only is this book the namesake of the movie, it is also the mid-point of the novel series. And as I hoped, it kept up with the same action we saw in the previous novel.

Here is a very interesting little conundrum, for you Constitutional Scholars out there:
The idea of a Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is unconstitutional.
This would also apply to Rahm Emmanuel; White House Chief of Staff.

Like I said, it is interesting, thanks to something called the Emoluments Clause.
