"That's why they have curtains at the polls - because my vote is strictly my vote - not yours". This was in response to someone who was trying to get my dad to promise to vote for someone.Troy & Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08701433932471343247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411372090566948393.post-51123586501233001002008-10-21T10:54:00.000-07:002008-10-21T10:54:00.000-07:00I just wrote the longest comment ever. And it disa...I just wrote the longest comment ever. And it disappeared. KILL ME.<BR/><BR/>So what I was going to say is that I think sometimes people with differing viewpoints get annoyed with those who have very strong, public viewpoints &, out of spite, accuse them of rating or yelling or intimidation or whatever. I'm not sure what sort of ranting/yelling you're referring to, but if you mean people who canvass for Obama, who knock on doors & make phone calls for Obama, who hold fundraisers & debate-watching parties for Obama, who make politics their away message & their profile picture, who hang signs in their windows... well, none of that is ranting or force-feeding. That's doing a job, advertising for a candidate, showing support. I just think that sometimes spite gets the better of people with different views & they choose to label it as something vicious. But as someone who does all of the aforementioned things, in no way do I feel I'm shoving anything down anyone's throat.<BR/><BR/>And I know you probably didn't really mean this, but I just have to say it: Dear God, please don't vote for someone just out of spite for someone else's supporters. This isn't prom.<BR/><BR/>End rant.<BR/>Miss you.Suburban Sweethearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03014426590429844380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411372090566948393.post-14453321081981503092008-10-07T18:12:00.000-07:002008-10-07T18:12:00.000-07:00No assults here either!

I've noticed that this presidential election seems to be causing more anxiety and arguments than I've seen in the past. <BR/><BR/>At work, sometimes patients come in ranting and raving about how great Obama is and we all just have to smile and nod, while we secretly scale their teeth a little harder. ha ha, just kidding, but sometimes I feel like it. <BR/><BR/>I've never lost sleep at night over an election before, but this one has got me by the heart strings!<BR/><BR/>And the media is NOT helping!<BR/><BR/>So, thanks for posting Caiti!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00667671495626904128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411372090566948393.post-91715214265471332492008-10-07T18:04:00.000-07:002008-10-07T18:04:00.000-07:00...but if you were a Virginia resident, I'd make y......but if you were a Virginia resident, I'd make you vote for Mark Warner, my gateway Democrat! :-p<BR/><BR/>I feel that, as an independent, I should make a post that says, "Stop bad-mouthing people who have different political opinions than you do. It's a turn-off." Even among my friends I feel as though I've had to defuse too many tense situations.<BR/><BR/>I agree with the no-shoving rule...let's have some respect.tvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12545376758746024532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411372090566948393.post-4197602655155207272008-10-07T17:51:00.000-07:002008-10-07T17:51:00.000-07:00I agree with you, even though I can tend to be one...I agree with you, even though I can tend to be one of those annoying Obama-fanatics. I am so glad we only go through this every four years!! But I don't try to be pushy, and if I come across as such, I apologize. <BR/><BR/>I'm passionate, and I have a hard time controlling myself... haha.<BR/><BR/>As long as you vote, I don't care. Nothing worse than someone who ignores their civic duty.Caelan'sMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07524649650467336370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411372090566948393.post-56851442232140858332008-10-07T17:34:00.000-07:002008-10-07T17:34:00.000-07:00Hilarious!

And, you're right, opinionated people DO NOT change my mind or make me decide who I'm voting for. <BR/><BR/>Thank you and good night. :)amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01532043690325758110noreply@blogger.com
