Feeling left out
Being in one of the states not considered important to the outcome of the election. I haven't had a chance to see the two new gnarly political ads the candidates have put up. Not a 'swing' state not a 'battle ground' state, I may have to forego the exitement of a lot of pre-convention politicking. George Bush was going to teach me to watch nascar and chew tobacco. I'll pass this on to Aquinas, an additional proof. I did read a description and see a still of the Bush ad: John Kerry's plan in large letters on the right margin, on the left a montage of images including a dark skinned man glancing around with narrowed eyes, airplanes taking off. Well that's subtle: "John Kerry's gonna kill your babies, people!" Washington Post claims to have these at their politics subsection.
I'm looking around my place to find the biggest book I can find so I can spend the next six months reading it. (that being how long it took me to read "the Magic Mountain").
