I’ve been somewhat saddened lately that while a majority of the country may share my overall political views (which for the purposes of this post I’ll define by voting for Bush), in the state that I live in, people sharing my views are definitely in the minority. However, I was recently encouraged by the fact that in the Spring, we’ll be moving to Charlton, and that Charlton was Bush’s best town in MA, winning 64% of the vote there. So, I’ll be in the majority nationally and locally, but just not regionally.

This is my kind of game
And the winner is…
Well, somewhat on a whim, we decided to go over
It looks like Bush’ll probably win. CNN isn’t calling Ohio yet, but Fox News is. And with Bush having a 120,000 vote lead with 97% reporting there, I tend to think that he’ll probably win that state, and therefore the presidency. That makes me very happy.
Although, it is kind of disappointing to not have a single contest on my ballot go the way I voted for. But, I’ll live.
Confusion
It puzzles me that roughly half the country wants to be governed under one set of principles and the other half wants to be governed under a different set. I see how the way I think things should work makes so much sense, and can’t understand how the other half honestly thinks that their way is the best way to go. Yet, I’m fairly certain that the other half thinks the same way about their beliefs, and can’t figure out how we honestly think our way is the best way to go.
It’s just all… so… odd…
