More: what they think...

From the RED side... Here's a view from Seattle...

"I haven't been paying much attention to the news or the election lately; rather, I've been avoiding the news and the election lately. It's all very depressing, and I find the more I engross myself in work and other endeavors instead of watching the world crumble around me, the happier I am. That being said, I caught myself in a bar last week (or whenever the VP debate was), and the VP debate was being projected and literally everyone in the bar was watching it, instead of talking to each other, making merry, etc. I watched Biden flash his big, white, denture-perfect smile over and over, and cringed every time Palin went off-script. She's clearly not as slick as he is, but he is so disgustingly disingenuous I wanted to throw my hands in the air and flee the place screaming. I'm very frightened that Obama will win this election, through no virtue of his own. GW is astoundingly unpopular for a variety of real and manufactured reasons, and his complete disregard for the GOP in the past few months has set McCain up for a hard loss. It seems this election is already decided, at least where I live, but I'll still be casting my Red vote, whether it counts or not in this aggravatingly blue state. Here's to socialism."
