I think I may have made an oblique reference a while back to a shouting match (and yes, it was a shouting match...fueled by Bahooka Honey Bowls) where a dear friend and I got into each other's faces over the current election. He was virulently anti-Obama (called him a socialist) and tried to convince me McCain was the logical choice (obviously he failed big-time!).
Anyway, today I got an email from my friend wherein he apologized for the statements he made, said he'd done some more research, and was changing his vote to Obama. I was completely flabbergasted and heartened at the same time. I'm not saying you have to agree with me politically, but for God's sake do your homework and know WHY you're voting for your candidate. Of course, most people who do their homework end up voting for Obama. ;-)
