US Elections

Can one of our friendly US readers explain why there's an election this week over there? I thought you had elections every 4 years, with the last 2 in 2000 and 2004.

Maybe you can also explain the significance of your election being held on our Melbourne Cup day? (Because there is obviously a link - it's the race that stops the nation....... maybe that's my answer)

Speaking of Melbourne Cup, hey C Dubya Brown! I placed a dollar-each-way bet on the horse your namesake is racing on - Mathtoum - which unfortunately appears to be a bit of a long shot... I think it'll pay around $150 if it wins, according to current odds. If she (he?) comes in, drinks on me!! (Andrew, I drank Bulmers at the Crown last night - feelin' seedy as this moanin)
