I just got back from voting, and some made no secret about who they were voting for. Saw friends who we know for a fact are freepers. Others were making a show with their illustrated voters' guides with Smirk's ugly mug prominent.

I swear, I could feel my blood pressure shooting through the top of my head like mercury in an overheated thermometer. A part of me wanted to tell them as they walked out, "Thanks for voting for killing my kids." I keep reminding myself that this is their right too, and if I am as committed to the democratic process as I know I am, I can't feel this angry and frustrated. But I do anyway.

But still. How anyone can vote for this man in good conscience with the country and world in such a shambles is freaking BEYOND ME. Are people that brain dead????

I did not get any sleep last night. Watching the early news this morning I damned near broke down and cried as it really hit home just how much is at stake today -- and it is going to be a LONG day.

The question now becomes: How many of us have been paying attention?
