Victory!!!! Kind of, In my house at least....
Edited on Mon Sep-08-08 09:05 AM by cags
I live with a husband who was so dissappointed that Hillary did not win, that he was going to vote for McCain... Keep in mind that this was a man who has never voted for a republican in his life. When I got my Obama yard sign, he got a McCain yard sign just to annoy me. It was extremely embarrassing to have the only McCain yard sign that I have seen at all so far in my Dallas, TX area in my yard. The neighbors were laughing at our dueling signs. We've been arguing for months.

But the VP pick of Sarah Palin has pushed him over the edge...LOL!!! He hates her!!! Thinks she is a liar, incompetent and right wing nutjob. The library thing has him calling her a nazi. Of course I pushed the McCain does not have long for this earth angle, and she could be the president that your daughters have to live with line. The video of Bushs and McCains identical acceptance speeches have also given him a wake up call. The sign has been removed from my yard and he has upgraded to not voting at all. Which is an improvement to voting for that idiot. I still have some time to maybe get hime to actually vote properly...LOL


But this morning I am happy,

2. LOL! That is good news. Just think with almost 2 months
to go, you may even convince him to vote for Obama!

3. good news!
Hopefully this scenario is being replicated all over the nation. He needs to reach the point where he is voting for Obama to keep McCain from win--er, I mean stealing the election. Obama needs a substantial lead to do that.

Otherwise, they steal another one and all the pundits cry, "Oh, we can see that America isn't ready for a black President!"

4. It would cause
a divorce here - when I read this line: "When I got my Obama yard sign, he got a McCain yard sign just to annoy me."

That is all I could think - So husband went PUMA on you? How quaint.

Why does he hate Obama? You have to ask him if not voting is helping McCain win which will end up with us going to war with Iraq and more Federalist appointed judges and US Attorneys.

I feel sorry for you.

6. I know four or five people
who used to cheer on McCain, but for whom Palin was the last straw.

I still think we win in November.
