Better than the superbowl
November 5, 2008
We’ve made frozen pizza, popcorn is to come and all eyes in the room are glued to CNN. My roommate and I decided to escape the roach motel apartment we live in and the two messiest males on the planet, we call our roommates and drive to her house in Vermont to do homework and watch the election projections.
Her mom, her husband, Meghan and I are all bunkered down in the living room intently watching CNN.
Obama’s in the lead 207 to 135 with wins in Connecticut, Deleware, Dist. of Columbia, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Marylnad, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire (Woot Woot), New Jersey, New Mexico, New York(my home), Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Wisconsin and Virginia (which was huge.)
Compared to McCains win in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, N. Dakota, Oklahoma, S, Dakota, S, Carolaina, Tennessee, Texas (Bush’s stomping grounds, no suprise there that they’d want McSame), Utah, W. Virginia and Wyoming.
It’s being projected that Obama will take this election but it’s not over til it’s over. To be honest, I definately thought this election was going to be a lot closer and I’m a little disappointed that it isn’t. But now I am most excited to hear what McCain has to say to his supporters when he loses.
Us ladies have decided that watching the election is better than the superbowl. Partly because we (as voters) got to play in the game, but mostley becuse the stakes are so high. Our country, our freedoms and my future is at stake.
