arrrgh! my friend in new jersey is voting for kean

[bedazzled]

she called me in florida for the first time in a long time.
after spending time complaining the stress of her job, and
the fact they've cut her vacation time, we started to talk
about the election. she said, "i can't vote for menendez -
"i hate him - he's a criminal - can't stand the LOOK of him."

i was in shock. i asked who said he was a criminal, are you
making your choice based on TELEVISION COMMERCIALS from kean?
i mentioned how lousy christine whitman was. whether she thought
she was better off than six years ago re vacation time and job
prospects. no dice.

i am very sad. my friend is not the brightest bulb in the
closet, but i can't believe how lightly she's taking this
(to me) earth-shattering decision...

i have a hard time trying to continue a friendship because
of this. i guess i'll have to work it out later...

1. We All Have Our Own MORAN Stories....

My secretary is also a dimwit, who votes repub, just because she always has....and her church tells her to.

She lives paycheck to paycheck, but thinks it's the Dems who will make things worse for her.

She's an IDIOT, and I have no sympathy for her when she complains about her financial situation. Let her enjoy this robust economy. She'll NEVER change. repubs are pieces of shit for the most part, and I've eliminated some friends because of their inane beliefs.

2. I have a friend who's a LaRouchie.

Sweet woman. Won't watch TV because of the rays.

[bedazzled]

7. well she's sure better off not watching tv!

i guess that's a good consequence of a silly idea! i have been
anti-tv for years, but stewart and colbert have lured me back
in again, alas. and olbermann of course...

3. Call her back and tell her that the polls just closed.

8. i told her - if that's your criteria, don't vote then!

think i offended her. i'm usually very sensitive to
to others' feelings, but i was really gobsmacked...

4. Having your candidate get beat like a red-headed step-child

is an opportunity for personal growth. This I know with exquisite clarity.

It'll be good for your friend.

11. from your lips to dog's ears!

pleeeeeze!

i'm afraid to call my other friend in nj.
the one whose parents always voted thug, so she does,
too.

the one who thinks raping children in front of their
parents would be okay with jesus because they'd do it
to us if they could.

i've got to improve my pool of friends!

13. thank you for the smile!

i hope folks like you with functional brains are in the
majority everywhere!

16. On the way home there were kids on just about every street corner

holding these huge signs that said "STOP BUSH VOTE NOV.7"

I've been seeing them go up around NJ for the past few months, but seeing people on street corners holding them up was inspiring.

15. Add Two More . . . .

from the Suziq household to the Menendez column.

12. I, 6 family members, and 10,000 Bengali people all voted for

Menendez (block vote, thanks to my dad, who was on the phone all day yesterday). And yes, you can call us friends.

It's ok. I made up for your friend and added a few.

callforchange.org---great idea. Way to go moveon.org.
