Them Dems

The smell of Democracy is in the air.

It's Election Day in America. What a wonderful day.

I sure as hell hope it turns out the way I want it to. If not...well I'm not going to move to Canada. Although I do like their national anthem. It's pretty. The metric system would do me in. I'm too much of a smug American and would expect people to tell me distances in miles and shit like that.

So back to it being Election Day....

I voted early. And by early I mean early in the day. None of this voting days before hand. I love the option but it isn't for me. It feels more....fun to do it on the day. There's the sweet old ladies who are poll workers, getting the sticker and being able to see what number you are for the day. 749 if you were curious. It feels more real when you vote on the day.

No surprises here when I say I voted a straight Democratic ticket. I like them Dems. The Democratic platform might not be perfect but it works for me. I know I've said it before but I'm primarily a democrat for personal rights. Like abortion, gay marriage, civil liberties. You know, crap like that. I find it interesting that the Republicans like small governments cause they don't think the government should be all up in your grill but they sure as hell don't have a problem being all up in a person's personal, private business. That silly GOP.
