Doesn't this feel like, a 8 year old's, Xmas eve ...

waiting for the hour when we can open up that neatly wrapped gift from Mom and Dad ... the box that we are positive contains that G.I. Joe with the Kung Fu Grip?

We've dog-earred all the catalogues to the page ... We've innocently drawn Mom and Dad's attention to every commercial for the G.I. Joe, and when the commercial was for a G.I. Joe, sans the Kung Fu Grip, we have noted ... with equal inocence, "That's really cool; but the one with the Kung Fu Grip, would be awesome!" When shopping, we've dragged Mom and/or Dad to the toy section and stood for an eternity by the G.I. Joe with the Kung Fu Girp display.

Now to be clear ... Re-Electing President Obama would be getting the G.I. Joe; but re-electing President Obama, keeping/expanding on the Senate AND winning the House, would be the G.I. Joe with the Kung Fu Grip!
