2. To 'o the morning to you to you, Will *yawn*
For some strange reason, there is a Hummer from Florida (we're in Colorado) with a Barack Obama sticker.

That's a oxymoron.

3. Yes, I think he'll be out of 'cheatin reach' this time.
I don't think people are prepared for the overwhelming numbers of voters chomping at the bit to support him. All the supression and all of the caging and all of electronic flipping won't make up for the sheer volume this time around. I do think we're on our way. Cheers!

5. I had a long chat with my sister and her husband in upstate New York
this morning. She always votes for Democrats but she's not a political animal. I could not believe her enthusiasm. Everyone they know is voting for Obama. Her hubby said that all but one of their 'not so fond of the black guy' associates have all changed their minds and are voting for Obama/Biden. He told that one person that he may as well buy a hood.

I'm still worried about their October surprise but things are looking good.

8. I'm starting to get that same feeling I had last Spring - the stunned
knowledge that maybe, just maybe, he has a real chance to go all the way!

9. I'm really starting to believe it
Cautious optimism but real optimism. It's such a strange new feeling. I'd hate to be disappointed again. Yesterday I said "Yes We Can!" with 75,000 of my friends and it was exhilarating! :bounce:

19. Phalin's latest invocation of 'terrists'
Is proof that desperation is beginning to set in.

I am ever hopeful Will, but my cynicism won't let me enjoy things just yet. ;)

20. Golly darn! ...ermm...I mean God damn! I think you may be correct.
Quite correct!

But can I choose who counts the votes, just to make sure?

26. Not writing much
My girlfriend was diagnosed with MS back in November and moved in with me shortly thereafter. We recently moved again to a better place. I am her primary care-giver now, which isn't a tremendously big deal because the MS hasn't disabled her too significantly, but it has all been a big change/challenge/responsibility. The writing is on the shelf until I can get myself back into a working routine, which I'm aiming to finish recapturing soon.

Cheers, and thanks.
