Rock The Vote Bitches!!!

Okay everyone, tomorrow is Election Day. Get off of your asses and vote! I don't care who you vote for, just vote.

When I went to vote four years ago, my son was a little over four months old. I chose to take him with me in his car seat to cast my vote. Everyone looked at me funny for a second and then thought it was great that I was taking him. At the time, I only took him because my man wasn't home from work yet and I didn't want to get to the polls when it was super busy.

Looking back on it, I realize that even though he will never remember that, it was important for him to be there, and this year he is going with me again whether he likes it or not. I want to teach him that voting is important, that you do have a voice no matter how small you may think it is. Your one vote could be the one that makes your guy win. Could you imagine the feeling of having your candidate win by just ONE vote and knowing that one vote could have been yours? I know it seems like a stretch but weirder things have happened in this world, just look at Sarah Palin. I just love how she congratulated the city of Pittsburgh on their World Series win. Do your homework girlie!!!

Did she really do that? Classic, now imagine her negotiating peace in the middle east or going to visit European countries like Japan.

We have a proposition here in SF to name the sewage treatment plant after G Dub, gotta vote on that!
