Just had to post on here again. We're over run with Democrats. There are celebrities passing through either campaigning for Hillary or Obama. There was a message on the answering machine from Obama wanting everyone to vote early. Both of them have been all around the area speaking here and there. Obama was at Texas State Univ. this week and caused Melissa problems getting around campus to her classes because of all the security and news crews.

The thing I was concerned about is happening. Some of the Republicans who voted early are crossing over and voting for Hillary because they think McCain will have a better chance of beating her. This is one reason that I really think, and I'll say it again, all the primaries need to be on the same day in the entire country. It's just not right the way it is taking place.

I don't know if we've every had this much attention. We went downtown earlier this evening and I noticed that the GOP headquarters is right next door to the law office of the head of the Democratic party here. Isn't that crazy!!!

Wow, that's frustrating! I personally don't think that should be allowed, but what can you do?

I have to admit that I'm one of those people that hasn't gotten really into politics yet. I voted last time, but I really need to learn more about everything. I still don't fully understand what makes someone a republican or a democrat. And I don't know fully where I fall when it comes to those lines. It really is starting to interest me this year though. I've been taking the candidate tests to find out whose views are close in line with mine. And I have been following all the articles about the election coming up. It's going to be an interesting year, that's for sure!

This is off topic, but I just wanted to say that I love your signature line! Mulan is one of my favorite movies and that was a good scene.
