You had me at “only 5 lines long.”
I’m so tired of the election generated drama, can’t we vote already?
Kylas last blog post..For your next self-pitying engagement, might I suggest the World’s Tiniest Violins?
It’s nice to read a post that doesn’t bash one side or the other. Thank you for that.
I want it to be February, already.
I’m so sick of it all I want to stick my head in a trashcan.
Plus, the ugliness is the worst that I can remember in any election and it doesn’t look like it’s dying down anytime soon.
AMEN.

Oh pick a side :}
Backpacking Dads last blog post..It was an honour just to be nominated
Hear, hear!
Headless Moms last blog post..Just Curious-School Volunteering
Oh Loralee, thank you for not spewing forth a rant! Elections are so nasty in and of themselves, and I just hate reading ugly rants from either side. I know who I’ll be voting for, but I don’t blog for political reasons and I have already deleted several blogs from my favorites just for the crap they’ve written in the last few days!
Thanks for being one of the cool ones.
HeatherPrides last blog post..Biggest Disappointment of the Week
i totally agree with you. makes me so glad i am in turkey right now. i get enough election coverage on twitter thank you very much! at least when i get back the voting will be over and done with…november 24!
natalies last blog post..Surprise!
You’re right. As tired as I get of all the coverage, mud-slinging, speculation and campaigning… it’s good to remember the positive side of this. Thank you!
Jill – GlossyVeneers last blog post..A Comment on Comments
lol @backpacking dad…she HAS picked a side! i know what it is! well, i think i do…
jesss last blog post..on the precipice of a hack job
True about the history, but not all history is good, noamsayin?
Sras last blog post..Loose Ends
I’m intrigued, but I really just want this mess to be over. Thanks for not going on a rant. Actually, I’m mostly over the rants, not the election.
jenboglasss last blog post..The Friday Five
so true.
thanks for the positive perspective.
it is pretty cool!
p.s. i have not commented in forever, but i am still reading. just wanted you to know.
@sra
I have to disagree in this case. You may not care for or down right hate the politics of either candidate. Their actions and decisions may rub the wrong way or not work out so well, but at the end of the day either an African American will be our President or a female will be the Vice President of the United States.
For the first time in history.
It is amazing to me and very cool.
OH, come on. This is the funnest election I have ever paid attention to. Okay, its the ONLY election I’ve ever paid attention to. Also, the only one I’ve ever had and actual opinion on. And you know how much I like to ride the fence!!
jens last blog post..What I’ve been thinking about lately via a series of heartfelt letters
cool, why didn’t i think of this ;OP
Domestic Extraordinaires last blog post..I am supposed to be right handed damn it!
Hee hee! I know – it would be cool if the election were tomorrow.
I’ve posted about it alot this last week because I have no self control, apparently. But the comment discussions have been really thoughtful and respectful. I’ve been so pleased. I expected to get trounced and trolled all over the place.
Hey thanks SO SO SO much for not getting into who ya like, who ya hate, why ya hate, why they’re wrong, etc etc.
I love being nice. I love it from other people too.
Texan Mamas last blog post..Stuff you probably don’t know about me… or care about
It’s nice to read something positive and neutral. But if you blogged about the joy you experienced while watching the “rhythm” of the R-Pubs last night at the convention, I would think that was nice, too. :)
The Over-Thinkers last blog post..NOT a post about bed-wetting, thankyouverymuch.
True Dat.
You know what would be even more effing cooler? If I could convince myself to believe anything either side says when it comes to cutting taxes.
After 39 years of experience one thing I know for certain. every time a politician opens their mouth – they have their hand on my wallet.
You want to make history?
I say we appoint you Emperor and move D.C. to Cache Valley.
Davies last blog post..New things around the house
You are so right!
Mrs. Schmittys last blog post..Can They Expel A Pre-Schooler?
Shit. Why couldn’t I have just written that instead of my long blah-blah-Sarah-blah-Obama sucks-blah post?
Genius dude.
Robin @ Party of Fives last blog post..Welcome Sarah..
Oh, man. I’ve just offended my entire home state by announcing that I’ll be voting for Obama, and I don’t even LIVE in America anymore.
Camilles last blog post..I Wonder How Many Readers I’ll Estrange in Writing This Post?
What a great post – I totally agree!
Rachaels last blog post..Haiku Friday: It All Begins
Yes, thank you for not adding to the plethora of polarizing political blogs here in mommyblogville (daddyblogville too). It is making my brain hurt. How I would love to push a fast forward button to election day so as not to have to hear 24/7 about Michell Obama’s biceps, or Sarah Palin’s cool glasses (they are cool) or how many houses McCain has blah, blah, blah- let me know when it is over-
Margies last blog post..
Mucho agreed. Just wake me up when it’s over.
little reds last blog post..what’s in a house?
I concur. Positive thoughts rule.
gorillabunss last blog post..gloss and gleam
Right on.
lceel ‘Uncle Lou’s last blog post..Out of gas
As long as you think like that then you can’t be disappointed right??
OMG, best post on the elections ever. I am WORN OUT by the rants and feel like I’m walking on eggshells if I try to make any type of comment…thank you and I agree totally, how cool is it that history is made this year and we get to watch!
The Stiletto Moms last blog post..Man-erisms: Garbage In, Garbage Out
What’s in February? The elections are in November, and they take office in January.
But really my primary thoughts are how much we the people are going to lose in this election no matter who wins.
It’s a lose lose situation, and not enough people really care.
Viva la revolution!
jonathans last blog post..The Terror: A Novel
I’m not American, but I already ODed on election coverage last year when I was living in California. So now, not so much. It’s interesting to compare politics here and back home (Canada) and the biggest difference I can see is the complete integration of religion into politics. It’s odd to watch sometime, how candidates have to prove how Christian they are. Neither McCain nor Obama come off to me as particularly religious and what they both say about religion seems like a lot of lip service.
Anyway, the history thing is cool. No matter which way it goes, glass ceilings will be broken.

Simply put. Change is in our future and that is exciting!
