OH Election Update

I've mentioned before that I've seen a handful of Ron Paul signs around my area and gave it no thought whatsoever. This morning, on my weekly Kroger run, I saw not one but two Obama signs.

Well, our primary is tomorrow, remember, and I guess it was only a matter of time. I haven't, however, seen any Hillary or McCain signs...but then again, my route to and from town is pretty limited, and I seldom venture into the downtown area.

And here's something kind of funny: because we watch the local network for the weather and whatnot, Daughter knows just who Obama is. Oh yes. The other day a commercial came on, and there's my four-year-old shouting "Look Mama! Barack Obama!"

To which I replied "Turn away! Don't look at the light! Bad! Baaaaaaad!"

Daughter thought that was hysterical.

Just yesterday a friend of mine asked me who I was voting for, and I said I have no idea, since I can't stand any of the candidates. She said she wasn't sure about Barack or Hillary, that she could possibly vote for McCain, but he'd probably just be another "rich, Republican asshole."

"What do you think I am?" I asked her.

"You're not an asshole," she assured me.

Haw haw haw....
