Back to the election for a moment.
One of the issues we discussed last night at the meeting was the nation-wide lack of yard signs and bumper sticker, pins, buttons, etc.  On the plus side, they are very popular and people are constantly trying to grab the Obama gear.  On the down side, there doesn’t seem [...]

This has nothing to do with the election but it did give me a little chuckle…
I received a lost and found notice from the receptionist today:
FOUND IN LADIES’ ROOM ON THIRD FLOOR:  A STRESS RELIEVER.
Um, I usually leave my “stress reliever” at home and don’t bring it to work… but then I’m an old fashioned [...]

Last night was my first official Obama volunteer night.  I wasn’t marching through the streets or wearing a sandwich board.  I didn’t light candles or sing Kum-by-ya.  I went to an hour-long meeting where a small group of us discussed the current plans to make Obama known to local undecided voters.  We discussed the importance [...]

Yesterday, after weeks of writing about Obama and endless family debates about pros and cons of each candidate, I decided to take the next step to work for the change I want to see.
Yep.  I called and signed up as a volunteer at the Colorado for Change Office as an official Obama supporter,  I registered [...]

I lost both of my front teeth at the same time when I was a little girl. One came out just a few days after the other and I was delighted that I’d be getting a double-whammy from the tooth fairy. My grandparents were charmed by my cuteness and Grandma told me that she’d match [...]

It is surprising and disappointing, then, to see him beginning to slide into a campaign so full of untruths and blatant [...]

I know it seems a crazy idea…  I know it’s radical… It may even be unheard of… But I thought I’d take a moment and instead of listing president versus vice president, maybe we could take a look at our front runners and see what Obama and McCain have to say for themselves.  (Like I [...]

The posting I removed has been modified and reposted. 
Feel free to take a look at An Offering [Revisited].  It’s important to keep the open discussion of the election going right up until the moment you walk into the booth to cast your vote.
Pro-bama ‘08!

If I may take a moment to say something utterly unrelated to the election…
Tonight as I sat alone at the local laundromat doing four loads of laundry at once, ear buds in and iPod on, wearing my work skirt and over-sized sweatshirt that reads “Careful, or you’ll end up in my novel” with my feet [...]

Those of you who took a look at this page in the last hour may have seen a posting in which I responded to the political views of someone I’d never met.  While I never mentioned a name or a direct quote, I used his arguments as a foil to my own without permission. 
I have [...]
