I early voted last week. No wait, no problem. It was such a pleasant experience, I think I'm gonna run out to the polls and vote again tonight. I am an 90 minutes from Chicago afterall.
Voted in Stamps, AR - No Line - Voted McCAIN-PALIN. No Billy Clubs, but would not have been surprised. Maybe I should have taken my beebee gun. Skinheads may be busy tomorrow - but hopefully that won't be the case.
As long as you vote early and often, it doesn't matter what name you use. As far as names go, the obituaries have proven to be a viable source in Chicago.
Mr. Woody Jenkins had the "proof" that was never even mentioned again. Kinda mysterious like.
Civil War vets are the most active group of voters that generally always vote Democratic.According to the exit poles anyway. The heavily Catholic/French influence of the late 1800's comes a close second.
Someone commented they're disappointed to see those guys with the billy clubs and of course I am too. But let's keep things in perspective - 99% of the rest of Americans will come away from the voting station WITHOUT any such crazy story. Those are just a couple of guys with seemingly nothing better to do than stand there trying to look tough and intimidate. I'm so thankful for the vast majority of people who peacefully cast their ballots.
I've been really praying for this great nation that I love and believe we can get through anything. If some folks vote in socialism -ok- let's give it a try. When, not if, it fails, we'll dump it and return to our roots, I pray.
My hubby and I had to vote absentee, as we are out of town. But I prefer going in to vote - it's exciting to witness and participate in the democratic process. Anyone else agree?
KB,
Let me be the first to offer my congratulations to you and Mr. Obama.
It pisses me off that I'm gonna have to pay for lazy a## people who don't
want to work but if that what America wants i guess I'm stuck with it.
