I stood in line for an hour today behind a tea party lady

I learned : 1. Romney is campaigning while Obama is playing basketball. 2. The only reason Md. is Blue is because of PG County, Montgomery Co. and Baltimore city. 3. The kid at the local deli registered for the first time and hadn't gotten confirmation, but she was glad because he's Hispanic and it's one less vote for Obama. 4. She's seen quite a few Romney signs.

She could always move to Alabama… That way she'd get away from all of those darn liberals.

Those counties are ONE of the reasons why MD is blue. Lots of people live there.

I just listened politely....He used to play golf with my wife's pediatrician (kept trying to talk about pleasant things, and found that out)....nice guy. Was like petting a Stegasaurus.

Sad. Clueless.

Retired a long time ago. We NEVER let the conversation get political, even though he kept trying.

Just wanted to add that most of the people at my polling place were white. Not that is should matter but since she made that distinction, thought I'd point that out.
