Blast Off! Radio today at 4:00 pm EST: The sucky radio show lives while the blog rests

Although the blog is on hiatus, the radio show goes on ...

Yes, I've decided to maintain Blast Off! Radio during this downtime. It's just too damned difficult for me to hold in all the ranting -- I'm sure you know how it is.

Seriously, there's a lot to talk about today ... we'll review the election, of course, including a look at the two Senate races still up in the air (hello, Minnesota and Alaska!) and some of the local and statewide races -- with all the attention paid to California's Prop 8, perhaps some of you missed the fact that Florida passed its own measure enshrining bigotry in our state constitution.

Meanwhile, President-elect Obama is putting together his team -- what does it look like now, and what can we expect in the future? Who are your picks for the Cabinet? Let us know -- but remember, please, no wagering.

Yes, you can participate in Blast Off! Radio, and whether it's to share your Cabinet picks, talk about some other topic, or berate the host, it's incredibly easy to do. Here's how:
