Who are you voting for?

Long time no post.

Anyway, I was at Metropark Station for the 7:23, and huffing and puffing up the stairs. At the landing, there was this guy handing out pamphlets for a local candidate, and saying, "Don't forget to vote". Well, i could have told him that i am here on a visa, and not one of the electorate, really...

But i've been following the presidential debate, all the brouhaha around it with a diligence that many of the voters would envy. It's almost like you can't help getting pulled into it. Of all the discussions / opinions, a couple of things that i "heard", that creates the strongest impression were:

- In the polling booth, it is going to matter to the individual, what color the candidate is
- Man, Palin as a possible president is scary
- There is a whole bunch of people who would have voted for Hillary, and are not sure if they want to go with Obama
- from the debates, Obama of course comes across as the "bigger" guy
