Rock the Vote!




Baby Punchy, Mike and I are off to the polls. Plover has ONE POLL open for our little town. I'm disappointed with that. A town of 10,000+ should have more than one polling location open. The lines are crazy-long. In such a close race it is SO IMPORTANT that everyone have a chance to vote. Many elderly are unwilling (and unable) to stand in such long lines. Grrrr... I'll get off my soapbox for now and instead cross my fingers that America gets it right.

GO McCain!

Mike and I like to joke that little Mikey is a McCain supporter. While pregnant with him he'd tumble around while McCain was speaking on TV but give hard kicks whenever Barack would come on the air. Ha!

Another indication, while feeding Mike the other day, a snippet of a Barack speech started to roll on Fox news and he chose that moment to spit up on my shoulder. Good timing little man! I couldn't agree with you more.

The last few nights I've volunteered at McCain headquarters here in town. Mike stayed home with the little guy, keeing a close eye on Fox news. He and I would often compare stories and share opinions when I got back from making calls. I had a lot of great quotes to share from the angry folks that were nice enough to answer their phones (and then hang up on me). Luckily, I did poll a lot of McCain supporters. It was a great effort on our part, I can only hope that our efforts pay off. I'm looking forward to heading back to headquarters tonight for a CELEBRATION party, not a Concession party.

Peace!
