A Word About Politics...

Jake and I have just started to pay attention to the presidential race. I don't like to invest too much energy into it until we are down to the two candidates. Quick story, I sat right behind John McCain at the 2001 World Series and during the 7th inning stretch I asked him to sign the back of my ticket. As he was signing I asked him if he would ever run for president. He said "Well I don't know Stephanie (we were tight), if I did would you vote for me?" I loved him as the senator from Arizona and of course said "Absolutely!" Let's just say that I am not as impressed with Mr. McCain seven years later. I don't think I will have to break my word though as I am pretty sure he isn't going to get the nomination.

Anywho, Jake and I have had quite a good time with this little gem of a website.. http://www.glassbooth.org/...it tells you which candidate your ideas about the country are most compatible with. I was more than a little surprised that Barack and I are nearly on the same page. I am a little sad that I will be in Orlando when he comes to visit this Saturday. Jake's pick? Some guy named Mike Gravel. The only thing I know about him is this very strange video on YouTube...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rZdAB4V_j8 Chances are he'll have to support a different candidate after the nominations.

On an entirely different note, Mason would rather feed himself than be fed. Disaster ensues.
