The Mountain Goats Write A Super Tuesday Song
Over 80% of primary season's delegates are up for grabs tomorrow. You know how a random sample of random celebs want you to vote. Now it's John Darnielle's turn to plug for the electoral process, with a song custom tailored to tomorrow's big voting day, as solicited by public radio show Weekend America. It's a piano ballad called "Down To The Ark," and while it won't tell you how to vote, it will hint that he thinks you should. Even if he's sort of skeptical of campaigning tactics ("And several post-born babies learned the hard way: Vampires only kiss you if they've sharpened up their fangs").
As for that little map, since you're wondering: the states in purple are those where elections are being held by both parties tomorrow. Super! Thanks for asking.

i'd say i'm more annoyed by people with nothing constructive to say... like uli, for example.
