Had my dad over for dinner tonight...

He is a true democrat, but couldn't bring himself to vote D across the board tonight. He voted for Willie Cotton (Socialist Workers) rather than Alan Hevesi because of Hevesi's ethics issues.

And this from a retired bank president. :D

8. A fair dose of socialism built middle class america.

People seem to forget.

3. Well, he thinks for himself. That's admirable. At least, he's still having

dinners with you -- and you're not estranged!

In peace,

5. We have certainly had our issues in the past...

But politics has never been one of them. :P

4. That's a hoot.

I struggled on that line too. I suspect Hevesi will resign and we'll have a special election for comptroller or our new governor will appoint someone.

6. I feel you- when I went to vote tonight

I saw that my 85 year old dad had gotten out of the house and voted today. (I saw he had signed the book)
and I got weepy.. he's 85 and not in great health, cant drive anymore and sometimes forgets things- but he still got up, got dressed and voted.


I'm also proud that after YEARS of being a Republican (in a house full of Dems, shocking), he has voted DEM since 2000.


When I saw that book tonight I realized he is one of the main reasons I vote in every single election. He always told me not to do so would be an embarrasment to people who fought hard for me to be able to.

7. Gotta vote! .... Now gotta hear Santorum concede.
