Proud to be an Obamahoman

Photobucket


Last night I watched my state re-elect a man who believes that global warming is a ratings ploy hatched by The Weather Channel. I watched a national map on CNN that for hours showed my home state as the only glowing red in the smack, dab center of the country (not that I expected Oklahoma to go for Obama, and I knew other central states would follow, but did they have to post our results so early? Damn Oklahomans, all prompt and stuff.) Oklahoma exit polls showed that voters overwhelmingly went for McCain over religious and social issues (note to Oklahoma: you were one of the poor states before the market collapse. I'm calling you on the clue phone, but evidently SW Bell has cut off your service.)

And yet in spite of that, I still awoke to the glorious headline above. I don't see a red state when I look outside my window. I still see blocks of blue Obama signs, and I still smell hope in the air.

Or it could just be pie. It is November, after all. :)
