Well, not completely it. I'm sooooooooo not a political animal. Usually. But this year's election has my stomach in knots. I truly fear for the country if Obama is NOT elected. Yes, it looks like he's in. But let's face it, given the treachery of the Gore/Bush election...well, there's this sense of "how might this election be tampered with" hanging in the air.
I don't like McCain. Well, actually--he seems like a pretty nice guy when he's not talking politics. Loved his SNL spot, and the Martha Stewart appearance in an apron. A good sport. But his political stance has no hope of healing the ills this country is experiencing--it will further and intensify them. His political ideals are WHY we're in trouble. And the idea of Sarah Palin becoming president, the obvious LIKELIHOOD of that happening if he's/they're elected today...well, I can't breathe for the absolute terror of that thought. Sure, she's independent and spunky--but nobody who actually LISTENS to what she's saying while she's displaying those qualities can perceive her as anything other than mis-informed, politically uneducated, and a loose cannon. We CANNOT give her access to nuclear weapons. Or foreign policy.
So. Please vote. Now. For Obama. I'm headed to the polls now to do my part.
