I know you're still all moon-faced and sullen over Mary Katharine Ham not stopping by to see you while she was there, and are quite likely knee-deep in Madame Gnu's Special Organic Herb Teas to drown your sorrows, but don't let those pleasant herbal dreams blur the line between reality and the Twilight Zone, and rush off to answer the door thinking's it's a repentant MKH who read your post and hurried to your arms . . .
. . . don't do that, because it could be worse. Much, much worse, according to Scott Malone for Reuters:
Hillary Clinton went door-to-door in freezing New Hampshire on Saturday, asking for support in the early voting state where her once-huge lead in the Democratic presidential primary race has melted away.The New York senator knocked on doors along a snow-covered block of Manchester, less than a month before the crucial January 8 New Hampshire primary, the second binding contest of the 2008 presidential campaign.
"I'd be honored to have your support," Clinton said on the front porch of Mike Glickstein, a Manchester resident.
Glickstein, a 38-year-old maintenance worker whose beagle howled incessantly as he spoke to the former first lady, said he had intended to vote for Clinton already.
Read it all at the link above. Mr. Glickstein - listen to your dog, man! Listen to your dog!
Anyway, forewarned is fore armed . . . although there is certain New England charm to the notion that Jay might, thinking Mary Katharine has run to his arms, throw open the door wearing only a hangover and a smile, to greet Senator Clinton. The YouTube would be viral . . .

This is Christmas season, not Halloween.
How am I suppose to go to sleep now.

She's going door to door? Now the mystery of why her polling is in free-fall is answered.

Never. Gonna. Happen.
I don't drink, so therefore -- no hangovers.
The rest of it, though... I'm just dense enough to do that sort of stuff stone cold sober.
Thanks for the warning, chum.
J.

Chamomile hangovers happen, dude.
Maybe not all the time. Maybe not even often. But you can bet your last Van Morrison CD that if it DOES happen to you, the individual ringing your doorbell when it does could be Hillary. She doesn't like to be kept waiting, either . . .

I hear a bucket of water or a flying house works on her kind.

Funny. I keep a 20ga shotgun by the door loaded with rock salt to chase off the dogs that harass my cats and chickens. I think it will work quite well on the likes of the leftist liars.
Be careful what doors you knock on witch. There may be a giant surprise hiding behind one of them.

I've always been a dog person.
Perhaps Republican is the dog-lover's party. I see the Dims as a bunch of cat-lovers--house-bound, anxious, paranoids, with about 20 cats lounging around the house.

"Perhaps Republican is the dog-lover's party. I see the Dims as a bunch of cat-lovers--house-bound, anxious, paranoids, with about 20 cats lounging around the house."
I tend to disagree, possibly because I'm more of a cat person, and possibly because...well think about their natures.
Dogs run in packs, and know you're the alpha person in the pack. They are utterly dependant on you to take care of them, and what do Democrats do (hint, Democrats want you to be utterly dependant on them so that they can remain in the "alpha" position, modern day COMPLETE Republicans, they believe in a ruling elected class who take care of the masses).
Cats are independant creatures, really only needing the basic needs from you (food, water, possibly a place to poop if they're inside cats), and otherwise take care of themselves.
Cats don't need welfare handouts and nanny-state things from people like dogs do....

Although I do kind of agree with his last comment
"although there is certain New England charm to the notion that Jay might, thinking Mary Katharine has run to his arms, throw open the door wearing only a hangover and a smile, to greet Senator Clinton. The YouTube would be viral . . . "
The youtube WOULD be viral...
