The implications of yesterday's elections haven't fully been realized yet. I do know that Ben "Cooter" Jones' defeat in his bid for Virginia congressman is a shame. OK, maybe not, but I just thought it would be cool to say that Cooter from "The Dukes Of Hazzard" made it to Congress. I guess that shows where I stand on the voter apathy scale these days, although I did vote (eventually). Maybe he should have rethought his platform in portraying himself as a "`NASCAR Democrat' who sought to 'take care of mama 'n them and make sure the kids get a good education.'"
