Substantive

I am excited about the next two days. Either outcome will definitely be a watershed moment in history. I hope that on Tuesday we choose the right person that has the power to get over the last eight years of disaster that has been plaguing the country I live in and that the residents of the state that I live in do not succumb to the scourge of bigotry and hatred that causes people to burn signs and get into shouting matches.

However, this morning on NPR some woman was being interviewed. She claimed that she voted for Bush in 2004. She wanted to go for Hillary in 2008, but when Hillary did not win the primary she looked to McCain/Palin as an alternative. The reasoning? "[Palin] is a woman and it is exciting." However, she finally decided on Barack Obama because Palin's answers were not "substantive" enough.

Oy. Know hope.
