In my 10 years of voting eligibilty..this was the first year I got out and excersized my right.
Why this year? I don't know..maybe because I've never felt like change has ever been needed more than right now..maybe because my bleeding heart liberal husband has helped open my eyes (aka: subjected me to politics for approximately 15 excrutiating hours a day) and interest in who's guiding the super-power of the world..maybe because Bush honestly envoked enough fear into my heart..fear that our current choice in leadership was dragging us all to hell by the collar..and my daughter's generation would be left to pick up the pieces.
But I'm pretty sure that because I took an interest..because I stood up and said enough of this shit...I sat on my bed next to my hubby and heard a great man speak today..and the sun is now shining on our hopeful future!!
