It begins soon. Primary Election night coverage 2006.

I'm going to live in front of this computer tonight, so I'm going to go out and get some supplies (Diet Coke, something for dinner, etc). Otherwise, I'm going to be stationed here in the War College Election Bunker in Pierre as the returns start to come in for a little live blogging. I'm prepared to go late, as I even took tomorrow morning off to do all of this stuff.

It's been a bombastic last couple of days. The PAC filings have stirred up a major firestorm between State Senator Stan Adelstein and State Senator and President Pro Tempore Lee Schoenbeck. THAT ONE is sure to rage for some time to come, and you got to hear about it here before much of the other media has picked up on it.

Keep your web browser on the South Dakota War College for election night for updates and commentary. If you want it unfiltered, Go here at the Secretary of State's office for the totals as they come in.

This should be good! And don't forget to listed to Public Radio's coverage tonight at 9:30 to listen and see if I sound like an idiot or not.

And Tonight's coverage is sponsored by .... those of you who hit the pay pal beg button on the right under the Bob Sahr ad. So if I can provide some mild amusement and information, help support the SDWC.

(Click on letter to enlarge) And while it may not be printed at taxpayer expense, I don't see a disclaimer, either. When they hold the special session (supposedly at the end of November) , since he's left them already, I think his colleagues should expel him from the caucus. Sure. At that point it's only going to be symbolic. But since he's already said he's running again in the near future, sometimes symbolism is enough.

It's about health, not potential promiscuity.

As the only South Dakota blogger out with 5 daughters, I feel I need to weigh in on the whole discussion that's occurring with regards to the HPV vaccine, and Governor Rounds' proposal to make it available. My family (including my three oldest girls) watched my mom, their grandmother, succumb slowly and painfully to cancer which spread throughout her body. If a similar fate from a different type of cancer was preventable through a simple shot, why wouldn't anyone advocate for it? At the age most of my kids are going to be getting it, they're still playing with barbies, and negative influences such as most of the programming on MTV, and other assorted trashy television is verboten in my house. All they're going to know about this vaccination is that it's a shot, just like for teatnus or measles. They'll go "Ow, I don't want a shot," and that will be it. Just another mark on their vaccination record. One check box for DPT, one for HPV, and so on...
