had a bit of cool news from two directions today

husband went to do a stone job for an old friend of his - guy was always a bit of a snotty rich kid blowhard. His Dad was a real nice guy but kind of a typical old-school republican. Husband comes home and tells me the guy and his dad both voted early and both for President Obama!

Then my oldest son came home from spending a couple days with a friend of his in Tucson and said he turned a couple of other friends to vote Democtatic too!

So the mostly apolitical members of this house have brought more votes than the me - the DU junkie or the other kid who has taken his facebook campaign way seriously! Proud of them all.
