My usual modus operandi for election nights is to hit a party or two and mooch all the free food and beer I can celebrate or commiserate with my fellow Democrats in a social environment. This year will be a little different, as the folks at KHOU have asked me and my blogging colleague David Benzion of the Lone Star Times to join them in the studio on Tuesday night and do some free work for them provide our unique and witty insights to their viewing audience. Naturally that will include some blogging, which you'll be able to see here (with crossposting or at least link-pointing here as I can do it). So instead of watching "NCIS" and the rest of the CBS Tuesday night lineup, you can tune in and be reminded once again why I have a face and voice for blogging. Though I'm sure their professional makeup staff will do the best they can with what they'll have to work with. Anyway, look for me on the tube next Tuesday night, and if you're at an election night party, please have a beer for me.
