Super Tuesday

Well here we are at the end of Super Tuesday. As I've mentioned before, I have a love of voting. It reminds me of my grandmother when I used to go with my Mom and visit her working at the polls. I like to think she'd be thrilled to see a woman on the ballot. I headed to my polling place after work and was happy to see how many people were there.

I have been thinking a lot about who to vote for. I weighed a lot of factors and was undecided for a lot longer than I usually am. I mean, I am a registered Democrat so it wasn't like I was suddenly going to go Republican or anything. I made my decision and I am glad I finally had an election I was truly excited about.

I will say that a part of what influenced my decision was what I will call the Oprah affect. I think Oprah's a great person with her giving away cars and opening schools in Africa. But I don't think she should be telling the country who to vote for. And it got quite annoying with her and John Kerry and Ted Kennedy. Enough. I'll make up my own mind thank you.
