All you can do is just sit and watch while your jaw drops onto the floor at the fact that FUCKING FRIGHTENING gun-toting, fundamentalist, freaky deaky WEIRDOES like this even have a VOICE in that big ole country over there, let alone can stand as candidates for the most powerful job in the world. - and the big problem is that they're vocal, they're organized, they vote in droves and are indoctrinating their children into their madness. what's even sadder is that a lot of people who desperately want change have a sense of hopeless "there's nothing I can do to change things so I'm not going to do anything" which is why people like that keep getting elected in this country.

but, I have hope and have had it for months and months now that Barack is just the person to stop people like this from running this country. I believe it down to my core. it was reinforced last week by Hillary Clinton in the most awesome political move ever, when she stopped the roll call and put Obama's name quickly to a vote. after going through one of the most bitterly fought primaries ever, that was a move of such awesomeness that it restored my faith in the Democrats in such ways... and I'll always think of that when driving through Harrisburg, PA since that's where I was when I was listening to CNN on my XM radio. :D

don't worry... although I'd worry for your country if these two are elected, because a lot of us may suddenly flee for parts elsewhere in the world. I'm so envious at my sister's moving to Australia. if it's McCain/Palin in November, she'll have already made her clean getaway. :(
