President Barack Obama
The United States has elected a new president: Barack Obama! This is very exciting and I am looking forward to all of the change he has been talking about over the past few years!
Although Hillary Clinton was my original Democratic favorite, Barack Obama is just a great a candidate as her and I'm looking forward to him being the President. I am curious to see who he will appoint to his Cabinet. Will Hillary be apart of it? Will he appoint her to the Supreme Court when there is an opening?
I'm not a soap opera watcher... politics has become my "soap opera." I can't wait to see what happens next!

Election Day
Today is the biggest and more important election of my lifetime and I am so happy that it is finally here! Maverick and I will be watching the elections results come in.
I remember when I first voted it was so exciting to wait in line. But, I was over that this year... I turned in my absentee ballot a while ago and LAVote.net confirmed that they have received it! Barack Obama received my vote! Let's hope for the same results as what I voted =D
Now, we're going to just have to wait and see! This is so exciting!

They are not mavericks!
Thank you Joe Biden for finally standing up tonight and telling Sarah Palin that she and John McCain are not Mavericks!
Maverick is defined as a a lone dissenter, as an intellectual, an artist, or a politician, who takes an independent stand apart from his or her associates. Even if McCain and Palin have made a few decisions that were different from their party, that doesn't make them mavericks. I truly believe that if either one of them were a Maverick, they wouldn't have a chance of winning this election. Why? Because people don't like much change. That is why we will probably never see a president that is not a republican or democrat. The two of them still stay very close to their party, and so I don't think they are mavericks.
I just hate hearing that word coming out of her mouth as the answer for everything. "John McCain is a maverick because he stood up for this." "I am a maverick because I said thanks, but no thanks to the bridge to no where." It's ridiculous. They have just picked up on this media label and have ran with it and I cringe every time I hear it, especially when it's coming from one of their own mouths.
Plus, I don't like anyone associating my fiancé with John McCain or Sarah Palin (his name is Maverick).
So again, thank you Joe Biden for standing up and telling them that they are not Mavericks! That was my favorite part of the debate tonight!

Let's Go Dodgers!
The Dodgers win the first game of their National League playoff match up against the Chicago Cubs! Three homers, including one grand slam by James Loney. Plus, my "cousin" Russell Martin and Manny Ramirez hit homers! The first win of the series, and they won it on the road! This is so exciting to have the Dodgers in the playoffs - it has been long enough!
Let's Go Dodgers! Game 2 is tomorrow in Chicago again!
Oh no - I think the vice-presidential debate is running at the same time as the game. What to do? What to do? It's too bad I'm not at home where I could watch two televisions at one time.

Election 2008
The 2008 Election is huge! It's huge because we have a Black man running as a Democratic nominee and a woman running as the Republican nominee for vice-president. That means that no matter what, whoever win this election, it will be the first time ever. That's exciting. But, it's also huge because this country needs change, and it needs it fast! We're still in a war that we're not winning. The economy is going farther downhill every day! The number of people in poverty continues to grow yearly! There are problems and we need change!
In the Los Angeles area I haven't seen many people with stickers on their car. I understand because I don't want stickers on my car either. But, I also haven't seen many people wearing pins or shirts for their favorite candidate. Am I just not looking in the right place?
The reason I brought this up is because when I was in Seattle, I saw Obama and Biden pins and shirts EVERYWHERE! People behind the registers at the airport had pins. Waitresses and Waiters at restaurants at the Pike had pins for Obama as part of their "flair." Students and parents that attended the National College Fair that I was at outnumbers those that didn't have pins or shirts on! The city of Seattle is very supportive of Obama and it's great to just see so many people caring about this election!
33 days until the election! California people - if you're not registered to vote, you still have 19 days! Get on it now!
