A- Swampstyle says what he will.

We had a great time at the 4th annual Cranksgiving Bicycle Food Drive Alleycat Race yesterday afternoon, 170 registered cyclists rode and collected approximately $2,000 worth of non-perishable items for the Camillus House.

D- Eye on Miami interviews Ross Hancock, a Miami-Dade Democrat who received no attention from almost anyone, including his own party, but almost beat a well-supported Republican candidate.

E- Bark Bark Woof Woof's parents write a letter to Talking Points Memo about the election.

They have been involved in a lot of campaigns in Northwest Ohio for many years, and you might recall that in 2004, my mom was a delegate to the Democratic convention in Boston. In 2008 they opened their house to visiting campaign workers and volunteers, and this year they did it again.

F- Orange freaks will enjoy Go Hydrology's graph this morning.
