    A Tonic for Election Anxiety

    There was a wonderful article in the Times yesterday about those of us who worry to extreme:


    Enjoy!

    Side note: my dashboard has been inexplicably eradicated, as have my buttons for "following" and "follow me." Nor am I able to reconstruct it. So please know that I I have not had a hissy fit; I am, in fact, currently following 36 of you and plan to add to that list.

    Comments

    Yes, I liked Ms Serizawa's comment about the fear of being hurt again... It's good to know that our whole tribe is in a dither over this and its not just us here at TPM...

    Ah -- almost instant gratification...dashboard restored. Thanks, Josh and co.! Now, please Sirs, may I have the "following" button back?

    I would LOVE to know where that "follow me" button is.

    Hey Wendy, Thanks for post. Glad you got your dashboard restored.

    Hope all is well. I can no longer watch McCain or his cohorts as it triggers mass attack of acid reflux.

    I think most of us here will experience some sort of PTSD in the coming weeks.

    Good to hear from you, Aunt Sam.
    Sorry I failed to link the Times article so that it would appear in red as a one click read, but it is worth the cut and paste. Better than Tums.

    Lux, I laughed out loud when the Missouri-poll worrier in the article deconstructed a +7 reading for Obama until it was a toss-up. Very Eeyorish.
    Tuesday can't happen soon enough. In the meantime, look for articles like these and take regular hits from a jar of honey.
