So, here we go.  Next week is the first Tuesday of November that follows the first Monday. I personally am looking forward to Jon Stewart’s coverage.

Our world as we know it will get shaped and have its course charted for at least the next two years (that is until the winner of this election starts campaigning for their second term two years from now).  This should be interesting.  I love how this is being labeled the most important election ever.  Aren’t they all? I mean, we are only deciding who the “leader” of the free world is going to be.  All eyes are upon the US.  Vegas has Obama as the late favorite, but he wasn’t always the front runner (McCain - 3-1 and Obama was 8-1).  I wonder if there is an over/under on the “time” it will be called and by whom?  Fox?  ABC?

What is going to sway your vote?  Is it the need for change?  Is it your liberal vs conservative views?  Is it Biden vs Palin?  Are you going to cross party lines or stay with your team?

I personally, am going to be glad when it is over.  Let’s get going.  Let’s move on.  I’m a little tired of the cat fights on television - reminds me of two sorority girls fighting.  We have an economy that is hanging on by dental floss, a lame duck president (has anyone seen Waldo lately?), and lots of bitter US citizens screaming for action.  But what is this election really about?  Joe the Plumber keeping more of his paycheck?  The rich giving up more of the money they earned (or inherited)?  When it comes down to it, is this election any different than the ones before?  I don’t know anyone that says - “yeah, I’d like to keep less money”.

Those of you who know me, know that I really don’t care about politics, I do care about action.  Whoever wins, just get to it and fulfill your promises.
