I Early Voted today....
....straight Dem....but it wasn't until about a week ago I finally decided to vote....and it pained me to vote; it was a three-clothes-pin ballot and I was struggling to breathe....

....but I voted anyway, not out of love, but out of self-defense....war, more economic melt-down, struggling economy, high unemployment, poverty, homelessness all dictate that the tools of organized capitalist crime, Republicans, be kept from power....that is, if you have at least, a little love for your fellow human being and country....

....there is much to dislike about our corporate Dems and they should take no comfort in the fact that they've once again 'pickled' me and my vote....I oppose and hate them as much as Republicans, maybe even more so....they are traitors within the Party....

....but the stakes are too high and we can't afford to lose what little we've gained....

3. seriously?
what is with this, I dont want to vote bull shit? You would rather hand the country back to the republicans? Any Democrat on their worst day is better than any Republican on their best day.

5. Stand up for your opinions and be proud
That's what I do. I fill my ballot and proudly took it to the mail box. Wife: "fill mine the same way you did yours". She too is a bit upset, but she knows what's best.

6. I hear you..I voted today too...
I had to hold my nose and vote for a bluedog but I did it so that we can hopefully move forward instead of backward. We cannot afford to lose any seats.
