So that's one vote for Obama!<br />~ellen~https://www.blogger.com/profile/00315658592077559215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-51330041258216685612012-11-04T07:09:08.056-05:002012-11-04T07:09:08.056-05:00I want him to get elected almost as much as I want...I want him to get elected almost as much as I want the NDP to get elected here. We all need people who CARE about one another to represent us. In Canada we have been asked who we would vote for and Mr. Obama is the choice every single time!

I don't watch tv/listen to news, other than NPR, so I'm judging that by what I hear when I walk through the breakroom at work and CNN or Fox News or MSNBC is on. Why are they so fond of polls? <br /><br />I really, really HOPE Obama will win easily. As a swing state resident, I hope my hours of suffering through inescapable political ads will end in Florida's 29 votes going Democratic. ~ellen~https://www.blogger.com/profile/00315658592077559215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-12120343685489886452012-11-03T20:04:27.404-04:002012-11-03T20:04:27.404-04:00I'm glad you kept it up.

But then, your comment was there waiting, and I love it. I love that you, a white man, said it. So now I won't delete the post, because then your comment wouldn't live here anymore.<br /><br />So I'll just say, i wrote my screed, and now I'm over it. I'm light and happy again, kinda thinking/ hoping/ trusting Obama will win, but knowing that whatever happens, the world will keep turning, and we will all keep waking up in the morning and living our lives. <br /><br />I like that photo though. It says Hope. I was going to delete everything but that. Let's focus on that.<br /><br />Love you, friend!37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-83700721302998565912012-11-03T19:17:11.633-04:002012-11-03T19:17:11.633-04:00Hmmm...anything you care to add ;-)
One of the th...Hmmm...anything you care to add ;-)<br /><br />One of the things that bothers me has been the reporting from most of the major media. They behave more like PR flaks than journalists. Everything you cite above I read bout here on the Internet. I did not get any of that from ABC, CBS, CNN, or NBC or from any of their corporate twins and triplets. Has any big-name newscaster said, "What Mr. Romney has just said is a falsehood?" (God forbid, they should use the simply word, "lie.") They are pushing a cliffhanger scenario, probably for the sake of ratings. And another thing! If Obama was white, none of this would be happening! There.
