election '08

Wow, has this election been a crazy one!
I'm glad there's only a week left of this madness.

I've never been really fond of politics, but I know it's important and necessary. I wasn't old enough to vote for the last presidential election and didn't really pay attention to it. I was too worried about graduating high school and getting the perfect homecoming dress. 
(ps: it really impresses and surprises me how young kids are all informed and opinionated on this years election) 
What a memorable and historical election this will be! There's so much I can say about it. 

I haven't been impressed with neither candidate. I feel this election hasn't been a true depiction of America and all it stands for. It's not like how I read and learned in history classes growing up. A shame? Good? Or just new times? 
As my first presidential election, unfortunately, I am still slightly undecided on who I am voting for and if I even am voting for President. Bummer. I think I'll just "ini mini miny mo" in the voting poll. Lol, jk! 
I heard a saying recently that really caught my attention and sad that it has come to this. 
"Don't vote for Obama just because Scarlett Johansson told you to." I think this says alot about this election. I have encountered alot (not all) of people who are voting for Obama just because he is cool, black, young, a good speaker, or because celebrities endorse him. 
Anywho, I didn't plan on sharing my side or opinion. Ooops... Lol.

VOTE! Right...?

Okay I have so much to say about this topic too :) And I am not fond of either as well. On the other hand I feel Obama is hiding so much and not many people are informed about it. Check out grassfire.org, it's pretty interesting! By the way cute page, and I know what you mean by not much of a theme, mine is basically focused on Ava, lol. Yay for blogs!
