Shouldn't people want to vote based upon candidates standings on issues more then what party they are associated with? Is it just me? is anyone else sick of party bashing, I really dislike this whole republicans suck/democrats suck thing. Is anyone else annoyed by negative political ads? Does it seem like this "feud" would only seperate americans rather then unite them? Arent we all human? Does anyone else feel the same way as I do? Sorry wanted to vent.

Are the results that I can read on CNN temporary or definitive ?

I wonder if I can kiss American electors, or if it is too early to be happy.

Democrats win Ohio, sweep clean.
Democrats will take the House majority back.
Democrats now have 45 seats in the Senate.
"it's hard work" What a great day for America. Now tell me this? How will Democrats fix the $9 trillion debt ran up by Republicans? How will the Democrats fix the mess in Iraq and the $2 trillion cost of that war to the American tax payers?

With or without a will, does the court decide who gets what? Would there be a court record somewhere?

Of this forum... This is suppose to be a Country where we can express our Freedom of speech, and yet, when we do... we are either reported, or someone sends hate mail, or impersonates someone.... You've turned this forum into a Jerry Springer side show...........Its not so fun any more....

Thanks for listening..........

Here in ohio we are voting to band smoking or to allow it in bars,bowling alleys,bingo halls ect.

But right now *as of 11pm* the issue to band it is passing. Yes smoking is bad but it shouldn't be up to the government to take it away. whats next....saying how many beers you can have? How much a certain food you can have? Lottery you can buy?

I plan on writing a fictional young adult novel and basing it on my own life as a high school student on Long Island. I was wondering, when writing about characters from real life how would I avoid defamation of character? My friend who takes a law class said you could use the same first name but must change the last name and physical appearance, etc.

So my questions are:
How do I change characters as to avoid DOC?
What falls under DOC?
Can I keep the same first name and change the last name and some personality traits, etc?

and also:

Would I have to get consent from a company if in my novel if a character says something about a certain TV show, etc?

And do I need consent when quoting a book, movie, song, or TV show?

I think the wording on a ballot referendum in our state was purposely misleading. Its implication to people was one thing and its intent another.

Is there a legal way to protest this? Serious answers, please.

are they trying to destroy the countries economy? upping minimum wage means inflation to the max. im sorry the poorer working class cant afford to live on $6.15 per hour, but upping it for them will cause prices to rise anyways, so it wont even make any difference...we'll fall faster and faster into depression and our enemies will become stronger and stronger.

Something tells me they aren't going to be as respectful of the political process when this day is over.
