I feel the same way as Bev. At this point I do not have a clue who I will
vote for, but read every email and try and form some opinions. The amount of
knowledge shared on this list is truly remarkable!
Now if I could just find some Morels life would be great!

If they were listening, yes, but they are only barely hearing
anything...they also have ADD, with a short memory span, so it really
doesn't matter because people are going to vote for a candidate based on
something stupid like whether or not he is a good saxophone player.
I don't know if anyone is still reading these political posts, but I
will tell you this:
I have said that I probably won't vote for BHO. We have quite a few
months to go, and that could change. If nothing else, people's comments
here aren't wasted on me, because even if I don't vote for the man, I'm
pretty sure that he will be our next CIC, and hearing everyone get
excited about him gives me hope that maybe he will be different-it makes
the whole thing easier to handle. You know, it's like I didn't win the
lotto, but I am glad you did...I take some comfort in the thought that
so many of you will delight when Obama takes office. I really am still
undecided. I love reading the stuff James and Lynda write because they
provide the balance I need. I am grateful for all of this.
