10 days till Election Day. I knew this last month would be killer and it is. I am absolutely exhausted, but we are meeting and exceeding our goals, so at least that is good news. I fully plan to resume my blogging duties once this election is over won, and boy do I have some stuff to talk about. Anyways, peace out bitches.

27 days left until election day. That means its crunch time for Angie. Going to try my best to get out five days a week and give time to the Obama campaign. Yeah, added with work, I am going to be one busy bitch for a while, probably end up exhausted and stressed out, but that’s ok. I would rather be tired for the next month than deal with eight more years of epic fail.
Tonight was the second debate between Obama and McSame. You can see a full transcript of the debate here. Rather than giving my take on things, I found it really interesting, and comical, to see how others in the Twitterverse were reacting. Below is a sampling of my favorite tweets from the evening.
MissA0324 - John McCain looks like the a oldest member of the Lollipop Guild, only angrier and with a creepy cackle!
SaudaVoice - McCain, do you really want to say “no time for on the job training” when you have Palin on your ticket
Phyrdancer - obama should just take off his shirt…REALLY make McCain nervous…lol
pattinichols - I wish Obama would just hit McCain with a big stick.
kidsmoke - #debate08 McCain: I used to like you, then I respected you, now I vomit a little every time I see your face.
Elli0t - I think it is funny when my students ask me, “Why does McCain lie”?
BlowinTrees - Obama is shitting on McCain
santheo - McCain still uses a telegraph!
cravingchange - #current I love Obama more and more, I was a loyal Hilary girl but he makes me proud that he’ll be our next president.
johnhornor - McCain looks like Grandpa Simpson. He’s feeble, physically.
chuck_hamsher - I bet McCain’s health program will cover viagra and Obama is presidential … McCain is the old man you don’t want to sit beside while waiting for a haircut
ksmarshall - wow, mccain is just being a dick. apparently mavericks just crap on other people’s ideas instead of talking about their own ideas
telekinetyk - Obama is my hope for the future.
Overwhelming number of tweets about the “my friends” being the new “maverick,” as McCain said it soooo many times:
tiabel - McCain has got to stop saying “my friends”. He sounds like a street market hawker. “My friend, come here, my friend, good buys for you.”
thekateblack - McCain, you are not MY FRIEND. You aren’t even a friend of a friend.
JMGubbins - McCain, if we’re such good friends, could you loan me about $100,000?#current
SxBenjamin - John McCain is not “my friend”, I wish he would stop calling me that. He is a politician and I’m a voter. Friendship doesn’t come into it.
UPDATE: Someone wants to capitalize on all of us that are not McCain’s friends, by selling merch here at CafePress
And my absolute favorite tweet of the night:
sidravitale - That sentence right there on health care just won my vote. I’m officially endorsing Barack Obama, right here on twitter, you lucky ducks.
