I...I don't feel that the choices are bad and worse. I am very excited about an Obama presidency, if that happens.

I am tired of how sanctimonious some people are about their candidates and the dismissive and derogatory language they use to describe those who don't support them. I don't mind civil discussion of politics, but I find it hard to come by. I can't wait for the election to be over.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
