[MadrasT]

zOMG!!! My sister!!! I never thought it would happen!!! We couldn't even have a civil conversation about the election!

I am so happy :cry: another +1 for OBAMA in PA!!! :woohoo:

1. One of my sisters was SDS

and very left wing until she married an executive type and then turned all Reaganette on me. Since then she has been very hard core right wing. It has placed a significant strain on our relationship to say the least. All I can say is "I feel your pain."

2. Not me, but I just got an email from a friend

who probably does not post here, and her marine son not only voted for Obama, but registered as a Democrat!

[MadrasT]

11. Sweet!

:hug: :hi:

[kckc]

3. well, sort of

my lifelong republican mother decided that McDickhead was too erratic and hot-headed, not to mention old, and Caribou Barbie just pisses her off, so she just didn't vote for President. She seems to like Obama enough, she just couldn't quite get there yet, so I guess one less vote for McGrumpy will have to do.

[MadrasT]

9. I had to settle for that with a close friend

If that's the best I could do, I'm taking it! :hi:

[NJGeek]

4. I am sure they did

my dopey sister in law called my wife's Obama button "Scary"

HAHAHAHA

[kckc]

5. oh yeah,

she lives in Nebraska :) Miracles do happen!

6. My younger sister is married to a Fundie. Lives in Rhode Island. Called me earlier....

Asking who wants to tax healthcare benefits. I told her McCain.

I think I had her convinced to vote Obama but my brother-in-law is a lost cause.

[MadrasT]

8. Yeah, my BIL is lost cause, too

BUT I GOT MY SISTER!!! :bounce: :party:

[Catshrink]

7. Unfortunately, no. All three of my Kool-Aid drinking sisters voted for the old one.

I tried. They are hopeless. It's hard to believe we're in the same family. Thankfully, my auntie and cousins are with me!

[MadrasT]

12. I thought my sister was hopeless too, I'm still in a state of shock.

Hugs :hug: for you and your auntie and cousins! :hi:

[Ladyhawk]

13. All alone here. I just turned on Comedy Central so I can laugh a bit.

It's hard being different and I need my chucks.

[SoonerPride]

10. My dad voted McCain.

I work with him every day.

It was tense the last few weeks.

[reflection]

14. My wife voted for McCain.

So I'm not very popular at work or at home right now. :(

But I still can't get this big grin off my face.

She knows I love her, and she loves me, but she's fairly upset with me and the anger in her voice is evident.

We will talk this one through tonight like lovers do. I hurt when she hurts and she knows that. Hugs to my wife, pacing in the next room, depressed and restless. I love you hon. And if Obama knew you, he'd love you too, I'm sure.

:loveya:

[LostinVA]

15. Haruka's very racist aunt voted for Obama (she is VERY racist, did I say that?)

[MadrasT]

19. WOOT!

Hugs :hug: for Hakura & aunt!!! :applause:

[AnnieBW]

16. My MIL voted for McSame

But it didn't matter, since Sarasota County, FL turned BLUE!!! :bounce:

[BreweryYardRat]

22. Sarasota went blue? Holy shit!

I used to live there. If it went blue, that's an incredible change.

[AnnieBW]

24. Yep.

Take THAT, Katherine Harris!

17. My racist father in NC voted for Obama.

He told me that it wasn't the skin color of the candidates that mattered, but who he thought could do a better job as President. I never thought I would see the day. I'm so proud of him. :cry:

[MadrasT]

20. That is AWESOME!!!

That's how I feel right now!!! :hug: :cry:

[ikojo]

18. So far I know for a fact that a fundie raised nephew

voted for Obama...

My brother in law and another sister voted for Obama. They have a son in law who served in Iraq and a son currently in the military. Their oldest daughter was also a Marine.

[MadrasT]

21. YAY for your nephew, BIL, and sister!!!

My mom told me that my 8 year old nephew said he was glad his mom (my sister) voted for Barack because "He's nice and the old guy is mean." :rofl:

[joop]

23. get out the ice skates baby, hell froze!

My sis who hasn't voted D in 20 years told me she voted O today!!!! Conservative, religious but not fundamental.
