I’m going to have to put Old School Republican on ignore for the next 48-72 hours, aren’t I?  Or just extend it indefinitely...

There’s only so much utterly braindead #analysis I can take.

You will have to put me there, too.
Gladly!

Boris Johnson didn't vote for himself...because he voted in at his Downing Street address.

And at this rate, that might matter!



The dream is alive, boys

Yes, yes, it's all expectation setting and the rumors are worthless — nevertheless, there is nothing better to do for the next half-hour or so. Might as well have fun with it!

I mean, Sky has John Bercow on TV, and they're making him watch a skit of his "greatest hits" with puppets. Now he's talking about memes.

Well, part of it is that the Nats only won it by 2 votes last time Cheesy
It's kind of a funny result — you have to wonder if the SNP won by 27, or 85, or 163, if they wouldn't have kept the seat this time around. If "unionist tactical voting" is a thing, seems like it would've happened in the one place where "only by 2 votes over the Lib Dems" might have stuck in voters' minds.
