Joe Six-pack

I'm exhausted from trying to parse the election language coming from the McCain/Palin folks. Joe Six-Pack seems extremely close to what Hillary called hard-working white folks when in PA during the primaries.

Then, this flap about whether or not Obama is an American citizen? Geez, give me a break. It must be truly hard for those that cannot face the black side of the fence.

Wondering

I've been remiss but I have been swamped. Work and life both seem to be way too much these days. Add to this the desperate McCain/Palin manuevers and things are tense, tense, tense.

I mean who are they talking to when they say "Joe Six-Pack"? Are these the same voters that Hillary spoke of when trying to stay above water? Hmmm.

Strane musings

For some reason - perhaps because I'm exhausted and because I spoke with an ex who now lives in Geneva (she left after Bush the 1st took office) - but I'm wondering what the Palin household is like on a typical night. Frightening thoughts and images swim up to consciousness and, well, I wonder.

Unlocked and able to post at long last

Great, now I can try to sort out the swirl of confusion that I feel about this upcoming election. Of course, I feel a strong distaste for McCain & Palin. That goes without saying. And though I find much about Obabam to support, when he starts talking about "hunting down" and "killing" folks, my stomach does flip flops. Guess I'm more a a peacenik than I though, eh?
