I voted.


I'm not a political maniac by any means.  I care more about what happened 60 or 70 years ago than I do about what happens today.

I root for underdogs.  Underdogs kicking ass is what changes our path.  Citizen soldiers whooping fancy boy Redcoats... underdog victory!  Isolated doughboys marched into the fields of France to take on the behemoth German Army... underdog victory!  Truman's whistle stop campaign in '48 ... underdog victory!

There's something truly awesome about the peaceful way in which we pass the torch in this country.  It's both inspiring and comforting to know that when the election is over and power changes hands from person to person and party to party, the process continues without armies colliding and the guillotine coming out of storage.
