Today for registered voters of both the Democratic and Republican parties in The Land of Steady Habits and Big Slot Machine Pay-Offs, my adopted state of Connecticut, it's freedom of choice to the point where maybe freedom from choice may have seemed more attractive.
We Nutmeggers go to the polls today to pick our party's nominees for every electable office under the sun and a few (at least for me) pretty far beyond that large ball of gas. Voting begins at six this morning and ends at eight tonight and you really owe it to yourself to vote (or stop being unhappy at the way things are decided in this state).
This may not the catchiest slogan for this election season but it's certainly an evergreen that will be true today and forever more: Show up or shut up.
