AHHHHH!!!!! Save me
I just got off the phone with my mother.

as I've said before, my dad is so conservative he makes oxy-rush look liberal... lost cause in my book

I was holding out some hope for my mother - she did go to MN caucus and went with Obama.

Now she tells me - she's probably going to vote for MCCAIN in the general election - because she thinks obama or clinton would be worse for the country...

AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

:banghead:

and this is from the same mother that told me two years ago she thought bush was the worst president ever, and regreted voting for him TWICE

:banghead: :banghead:

but MA, McCain is worse than bush - all he's offering is MORE WARS and LESS JOBS

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Ma: well, I think the other two would be worse for the country...

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I'm going out there at the end of March for a visit....

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

all I can say is that my brother and sister better be around ALOT

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

1. Gah
I'm so thankful my family (immediate anyway) are all liberals. I don't think I could handle it.

You have my sympathies
