Last election at this time, Bendbubble 2 was up and running and I could indulge in all the politics I wanted.
I could even be Anonymous!
See, when I read some other blogs, and they start spouting stuff I disagree with, well, I just stop reading them. So, I'm pretty sure that would happen here, too, if I start letting my liberal freak flag fly. I don't want to lose half my readers, or more likely more than half, here in Bend.
Last election, I was saying Sarah was a joke, and I was being told, she was a winner. Hey, guess what.
Anyway, yesterday, I was looking at the picture of Obama being picked up in a bear hug by a small business owner, and thinking -- that's it. That's the election.
Some other columnist (Joan Walsh, Salon) was saying the same thing, and being told that was pretty pathetic.
But here's the thing. The critics are tone-deaf, just like Romney is. They don't get it. Romney can't keep his story straight because it isn't what he really believes.
Obama gets picked up in a bear hug, cause, well -- because Obama's a good guy.
That's the election.
