I am substituting at my local school and you are right on the mark.  I find a lot of the teachers support Obama.  The students also had a mock election with Obama at 197 and McCain at 146..

Status: offline 		  i was on the phone with GT about a week ago.  While checking my mail, i made a remark about a McCain/Palin advert, something like "Oh, Look, i got mail from John McCain!"  From the back seat, a wail of woe from my 7-year old,

"PLEASE Mommy....DON'T VOTE FOR HIM...PLE-A-SS-E-E!!!!!!"
 
i guess because a few weeks prior to that,  i was trying to give them the fair and balanced take on both candidates, and made a comment about how at one time, i would have voted for McCain.

Status: offline 		mine is 6 and i didn't know how much this election really effected her.  she had me help her do the Nick Kids Pick the President thing - she even made sure i didn't vote for the other guy (McCain).

she was very happy showing off her "I Voted" sticker after school.

Status: offline 		When I left work last night it was raining pretty hard. I ran an errand on the other side of town then thought...."I'll drive by the school to see if it's crowded & if it is, I won't vote" cuz you see, I have NO FAITH in either candidate. The school was pretty empty & voting took less than 5 minutes.  I spoke w/a friend last night on the phone and she said it best when she stated, "I didn't vote for one, I voted against the other". 
I did vote for Obama only because Sarah Palin's an idot & completely destroyed my vote for McCain.  My daughter asked me whom I voted for & I said, "The lesser of the two evils".  Let's see how "lesser" he really is.

**Eta, before I get bashed for this post, it was NOT a racial remark. I don't care WHAT color the candidate is, ok??  I just hope Al Sharpton doesn't get his own room at the White House.  I'd hate to think of him wandering thru the halls in his jammies**

I just had a vision of Obama inadvertently calling the White House the "Crib" during a Press Conference.

Status: offline 		Hey sambamansgirl,   Didn't the city look fantastic last night? I thought it was great that we could all come together and celebrate this joyous event. The trasit systems were up & running and everyone was very peaceful. Not one arrest! A great Democrat and a great and fellow Chicagoan!

it was frickin' fantastic! 

we finally came together as one race - the human race.  strangers of all racial, economic, gender, etc backgrounds chatting and cheering like old friends. you should have seen 6 corners (Damen, Milwaukee, and North) in Wicker Park - people were cheering, hugging, and slapping high 5s ...packing every bar around. no one got arrested for disorderly conduct either!

wow!

I am sorry the chaotic entertainment of impending doom has escaped us.  I could have used the chuckles too!
