Election Day

Well, it's voting day today and I am so glad it's coming to a close. I'm getting really sick of all the political ads that are on tv and the radio non stop.

Like a good citizen, I got up early to get to the polls and waited in line for about 40 minutes. And when I got into my private little booth (although it was a wee bit crowded as this massive woman next to me crowed into my space) I drew a blank.

Because up until today, I was completely undecided. I don't think I am very educated on the policies each of the candidates are for, or what their records are, or any of that. All I know is the trash talking and the rumors about each candidate. And I think...well making Obama president would make history, but it also makes me uncomfortable voting him in because of that. Where's his experience? And then I think...well if I vote for McCain and he dies in office, then THAT woman who is only a govenor will run the country. Plus he strikes me as insincere.

If only Hilary were the candidate, I would have a much easier time of deciding. After all, she was once practically running the country with Bill, smoozed with all the right leaders, diplomats, and foreign people around the world. And she'd have Bill by her side again.

Of course America isn't ready for a woman president. But still....I hoped I voted for the lesser of 2 evils. But when I left, I didn't feel good about my vote. Voter's remorse? Weird. And of course my husband voted for the opposite candidate and he says....well, we'll cancel each other out. Nice.
