GO VOTE

I can't wait for this race to be over so we can all settle down.

I am very undecided right now. I have always voted Republican but McCain hasn't inspired too much excitement or confidence for me. I don't like Palin and her "Joe Six-Pack", yuck yuck faux Midwestern drawl and let's face it, John McCain is OLD! My dad is 73 and he needs a nap every afternoon between 4 and 6 p.m. My dad has trouble remembering key facts at a moment's notice! John McCain seems more alert than Big Bill but you know, he's got to be tired!

Obama seems much more presidential. I like his delivery and his confidence but is that enough? I don't like the idea of spreading the wealth. I like the idea of change but is Obama the right change? Is it all just style over substance?

My students at MDCC are very excited about Obama for obvious reasons and my students at Pillow think if Obamam wins that part of the prophecy of Revelations will start unfolding and unraveling - speeding us toward the rhapture. Neither group has researched their stances but are voting based on the hype they have been told.

What am I going to do? Well, I tell you for sure- I will vote. Can't wait to see how this all pans out.
