I would rather get a gold star for actually paying attention and seeing through the smoke and mirrors of both campaigns, Anne. I am totally opposed to McCain and Palin, but I am also disppointed that many people do not challenge--and get really nasty if someones
does challenge--the history of sexism, racism and bigotry toward the LGBT community in both the lives and careers (and during the campaign) of Obama and Biden. Or the myth that Obama raised more campaign money than Bush by taking pizza money from college students. The "Obama movement" operates on leaving behind values that happen to be very important to some of us.
Perhaps I see things more clearly because I am not a Democrat or a Republican. On the other hand, I long ago gave up my membership in one of those parties precisely
because I saw they were not that different from one another--only that one was more hypocritical.
