I'm in a non-swing state (although who knows in times to come, as it used to be heavily Republican, and now isn't, and it's right next door to Ohio and Indiana and Iowa, which go Republican) but I saw a bumper sticker on a car that said "Veterans Against John Fonda Kerry" and I wanted to kick the car. And the person.
LOL! But I totally understand that reaction -- every time I drive by a Bush sign or see a car with a Bush bumper sticker, I want to pull over and either kick the offending item or ask the person who owns it why on earth they're supporting him. I'd really like to know! I don't get it!
Also, have I mentioned lately how much your family is just like mine? For me, it's my uncle who is a state representative Dem and has been since 1972. (Although in my home state of Indiana, and not Illinois, where I live now.)
That's so cool! And I totally think you should run for his seat. Perhaps you could create a nepotistic political dynasty!
