I happen to live in one of the "Deciding States" (or Swing States) of this election. At least that's what the news is saying.
Jet came home from work today so I could go to the voting polls without four wild children-in-tow. *thank you, honey*
And all I say is that I voted with the Good Ol' Boys. Just think "Dukes of Hazard".
Men who haven't shaved in ...oh, 30 years. People who think deodorant is optional. Citizens who aren't afraid to unabashedly proclaim their political opinions. loudly.
It was an educational experience.
For an HOUR I stood in line. waiting to cast my vote. listening to my fellow townsmen (that must be read as Professional Rednecks) declare Ob*ama to be the devil himself.
The Election Officials said they'd never seen the turnout like this. The line was LOOONNNGGG. It had been that way, nonstop, since 6 AM. Apparently there are some gun-loving backwoodsmen who are rather fond of their firearms, thankyouverymuch.
Hopefully all those gun-loving men and their votes will help capture our "Swing State" for McCain.
And for the record, I love my small town. and the simple people who live here. I just may take a complimentary case of deodorant to the next town gathering.
In the spirit of being neighborly and all.
