Despite that lapse in judgement, there is a shiny little lining folks.

In sadder news, my Mother in law was out visiting last week and she told me she WAS voting for him (despite voting for McCain 4 years ago).

She's doing so for 2 reasons
1. We (she) lived in Massachusetts during a Romney Governorship, and he's an asshole

2. Because he's (obama)" is moving things in the right direction. within the next 4 years, his plans will have made the USA a better place"
