Racism as a luxury
So a canvasser goes to a woman's door in Washington, Pennsylvania. Knocks. Woman answers. Knocker asks who she's planning to vote for. She isn't sure, has to ask her husband who she's voting for. Husband is off in another room watching some game. Canvasser hears him yell back, "We're votin' for the n***er!"
Woman turns back to canvasser, and says brightly and matter of factly: "We're voting for the n***er."

I voted yesterday. Momentofchoice came with me, despite her inability to have her voice counted, and we waited nearly an hour. I voted for the intelligent candidate, the man with the cool demeanor who promises us hope, a better way of life, and a better image of our country to the rest of the world. I voted for him. That one. I don't vote for colors. I vote for people. And by the by, your artist wife knows this: absorption of all colors = black.

Let's hope your state flips. If "That One" wins NC, he will most likely also pick up VA, which means that we can all go to bed in time on Nov 4th.
