Politcal Broo Ha Ha

Looks like the dems have chosen Obama, although by a narrow margin. The repubs are still unsure, but at least Huckabee is in the race. I don't believe Huckabee will end up with the rep nomination, but I'll still pray for it anyway. He won all over the south, and I loved his speech that included college football references. If you've ever been in the south, you know the pull of college football.

Obviously, we don't know how this election will turn out, but it has the large possibility of being a history maker. We could have the first woman or the first African-American president. None of that impresses me, but hey, its history.

My hubby and I tag-teamed the polling place yesterday. We don't live far from it, so he went and then I went. We didn't figure that the polling officials would appreciate four boys and a double stroller making an appearance.

On another political note, I'm reading a great book. "Crunchy Cons" is about "Birkenstocked Burkeans, gun-loving organic gardeners, evangelical free-range farmers, hip homeschooling mamas, right-wing nature lovers, and their diverse tribe of counterculture conservatives." Its a great book that makes a lot of good points. Many homeschoolers fit the profile of Crunchy Con(servative).  Here's a link to the author's column. Pretty good reading.

Yeah, I'm praying that Huckabee wins, too.
