POLITICS

I don't really like them. However, I am glad for the country we live in and the freedoms that come with it.

The first presidential election I voted in was in 1992. I was very proud...probably a bit naive, but proud and I loved the candidate I voted for.

Each year, I have been very proud to put my mark on the man I truly felt was best for this country.

For the first time, in 16 years, I will not vote FOR someone. I will vote AGAINST someone. God help us all.

I'm not crazy about anyone either. This will be the first time ever that I didn't go into the voting booth and without a shadow of a doubt know who I wanted and believed him them 100%.

I have to say LL you definately pinned the tail on that donkey. I too am voting against. But not voting with conviction for anyone. It almost feels sad.

I think you should all have a round for me tomorrow! P.S.S. I don't drink beer (often).

Happy Birthday Party!!!

Not sure who you all decided on voting for, but I am voting for Hillary. I think we need universal health care and she is the only one who really cares about us poor folk. I have extra yard signs if anyone needs them!

Yup, I, too, will be voting AGAINST someone. I don't like any of them enough to vote for them, but I do dislike one of them enough to vote AGAINST them.

Too bad I will be cancelling out leslie's vote.
