I think they mean when's the NEXT Next?

Next 2 - The Nextening.

Ah... in that case I know what's NEXT... but I'm not privy to the announcement/game date.  :(
( I would assume it' gonna be soon. I also don't think it will be guessed in 3Q.  ;) )

When's the next?
Election?? Tomorrow..

Then another 2 years for your favorite senator, and 4 years for your next president 8)

Thank you very much, move along...

Hate to be a stickler here, but senate terms are 6 years, not two...

You can vote for another two years for your favorite representative, however. I'm sure that's what you meant.

Yes, but every 2 years some Senator's term is up.
QuoteSenators serve terms of six years each; the terms are staggered so that approximately one-third of the Senate seats are up for election every two years.

True, but you're not voting to give your favorite senator just 2 more years, which is what I would argue that wording says. Also, you may have another 4 years before your state's other senator is up for re-election.

Anyway, back to the actual topic-- uh, hope we have a new 20Q soon. There.

I think he meant "favorite" and "your" in the generic, all-inclusive sense.  I'm sure he knew that Senators have 6-year terms.

I too am hoping for a new 20Q soon.

I think it would have been good for business for them to release a political related movie (Wag the Dog, maybe) or short so close to the eleaction. It would have been a good change of pace, too, from all the action/scifi.

Or the film where Harrison Ford played the president who fights terrorists... Air Force One.

(sigh)  Boys, we went over this equation in class two weeks ago.  Mel Gibson =/= Harrison Ford.  Their taglines are not transitive.

Yeah, I'm being a stickler, but c'mon, how often do you get the opportunity to use "taglines" and "transitive" validly in a five-word sentence?  I could not resist.

Plus, I wanted to short circuit any attempt at "I've got a bad feeling about FREEDOM!!!"  Just on principle.
