OMG. I swear, i have *never* been this freaked out, excited, overwhelmed - just totally consumed by anything as i am by this election.
I went out today and canvassed with another supporter - talked to some people and met an Army officer who told me he was a 'die-hard Republican who is voting for Obama. I'm just sick of all the bs'.
And another guy who said he's a hunter, and ex-Army, and owns a lot of guns but 'that isn't important right now. That's not what matters.' The GOP has been telling everyone - and the NRA, too - that Obama will take all your guns away!!!11BBQ!!!! The was bummed that he couldn't get a yard sign or t-shirt or anything from the Democrats - everyone around here has been totally out for weeks and weeks. So i gave him my little Obama pin i've been wearing every day.
And then,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ely_jan linked me to the most amazing Obama picsam ever, omg. It just makes you smile, and smile, and smile....
On a purely petty note? One of the things i love the most about Michelle Obama is that she doesn't dress in that horrible, quasi-military style so many other women in politics do. No a-line skirt and tunic-jacket-with-big-gold-buttons for her, no! She wears pretty, floaty dresses and neat cardigans and she looks so *nice* and relaxed. She is one classy lady. :)
*why, yes, i am fangrrling her. you wanna say somethin'?*
And, in the spirit of non-politics....
