election day 2008

Wow, can you believe this day is already here! I have refrained from writing about the upcoming election because I am quite honestly undecided. This year is so different from the last election - the dreaded Bush/Kerry decision. Back then I pretty much disliked both candidates and made my decision based on the fact that I disliked Kerry just a tad bit more than Bush. Honestly, the thought of that weasly guy running this country made my skin crawl, but that's my own opinion. Bush has his (many) flaws but he actually (at the time) seemed a stronger leader.

This year, on the other hand, I sincerely LIKE both of these guys. I will be pretty darn happy with either of them, quite frankly. I am very happy to be a witness to the first African American candidacy... I will be leaving for the voting booth in about 10 minutes and am still pondering my decision. There are a couple of issues I am very, very passionate about, but am wary of voting based on one or two issues. Alas... my vote will be cast nevertheless. I can't wait for the results!
