This is from Joan Walsh, who linked to it over at salon.com .... hysterical.

Family Values..<<<<<

Great article on The Keating Five scandal. John McCain is the antithesis of an honorable man. It has been shown over and over again and I hope he is done.

the republican party.....

Remember John Dean? He has written this insightful piece on the party and it speaks of the moral wasteland the Republicans have created with their politics of hate. They pretty much have destroyed themselves, which is what hate usually does.

new ad ...Paul Simon..beautiful.

Sunday night....late

Today Barack had Bruce Springsteen in Cincinnati. It was so great to watch and as annoyed as I get at cnn, I thank them so much for showing part of it live. 

We are getting close to the end and I am very psyched. we may finally get rid of the criminals who have been running this country. The DOJ is looking into the stolen election in 2008. I hope someone goes to jail for that someday. At least it will be in the history books. 

What a beautiful, beautiful family.

early Sunday morning.....

I can't sleep again. I awake with the feeling that I've been kicked in the stomach and the election is over. I cannot wait for it to be over. I am eating everything in sight, which is not good considering yesterday was Halloween and I have candy left . All the candy that I love, milk duds, junior mints, heath bars, mounds, milky way dark; it's been a busy day but I'm a wreck so I just feel better when I'm eating. Tomorrow is time for me to reread my training for poll watching and get it all set up so what I do while I'm there means something. Monday I will spend at headquarters part of the day and pick up my badge. We are allowed to take large t-shirts for people to throw on in case they wear something that advertises their candidate...We were told to offer to anyone "no matter how ill advised their choice". We Democrats are way too nice. I know a woman who is poll watching for the Republicans. Her attitude, even when speaking to me,  is to keep people from voting if there is a question...ours is to help make sure everyone can vote... big difference in philosophy there. 

I stand back and look at this election, all that has happened, all that may happen and I am so sure I am working for the right cause.  I am struck with disbelief that there are people like John McCain and Karl Rove, and Saxby Chamblis who have done the things they've done, and made the statements they have made here in America. They could only have learned to be the way they are from their families growing up. How damning for that part of our culture.  A culture of racism that I hope is on the way out. I've always believed that racism against anyone is a rotten core that will fester and grow secretly from inside until it spreads out and destroys us all. 

Tuesday cannot come too soon for me.

recap.....

Huff post says it best.........

"THE STENCH RUN " .... brought to you by John McCain

McCain and Palin will do or say anything to win. This just goes to show you what the Christian right means when they say "christian rights". Disgusting!

fivethirtyeight.com & Rasmussen polls..........

fivethirtyeight.com  Just glancing occasionally....

I really am not looking at these too much because this election is making me way too nervous. It is too important for me to even think about without being under way too much stress. 

Here is the Rasmussen poll.

Tomorrow I amclearing out....a stress reliever in itself...... no posting until late.
