I just want this election to be over! Partly it’s because I’m so tired of hearing about, but mostly because I just need to know who is going to win. I need to know whether I need to learn how to adapt to another four years under the leadership of someone I believe is uncapable of being a great president. How am I going to get up every day if I learn that more Americans felt that McCain was the right man for the job (not that he couldn’t win with less than half of the American vote). I hear the polls every day and they mostly get my hopes up, so I try NOT to listen or to be too hopeful, because I’ve been there before, and I remember waking up the next day and learning that George W. had been re-elected.
This is the first year in my 20 years of being old enough to vote that I’ve donated money to a presidential candidate’s campaign. I don’t actually know how much I donated. When Obama asked, I answered. And I will hold my breath through next week just find out the results. And I’m pretty sure I won’t be able to watch the election highlights during the day either, while everyone is speculating. It’s going to be horrible.
I’ve considered what other country I could be happy living in if McCain were to win the election. I thought maybe France or England or Australia. Certainly Canada, but Canada is colder than here, and I’d have trouble moving to colder climates.
McCain has said a lot of things during this campaign that have pissed me off. I know I am sensitive to it because I am an Obama supporter, and if I were a McCain supporter, I imagine Obama has said things to annoy them. But when McCain and Palin jumped on Biden’s remarks about foreign powers testing Obama if he is elected, he acted as though (and said as much) that foreign powers would NOT test him. I already believe he is delusional, so it’s not surprising he would say what he said. Foreign powers sure tested George W. soon after HE was in office. Can’t way I’m all that grateful for HIS response to 9-11. Does McCain think I would feel safer with him in office? FAR from it!
The McCain said that Obama is saying anything to get elected. That made me laugh out loud, because McCain was totally describing HIMSELF!
Anyway, I cannot wait for this election to be OVER. Go Obama! Make me proud to be an American again!!
