serendipti's Diaryland Diary 7:59 p.m. - Thursday, Sept. 30, 2004 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- merry for kerry so I came home in the afternoon cuz I felt like rearend, and also because I was really stressed out about the debate. Now I know that sounds ridiculous, but I was stressed and I wanted Kerry to point out, in no uncertain terms, that Bush blows. And although I could have watched the debate with Pisser and the 38 year old, I had to watch in the womb of home/parents because it is the kind of experience (watching Bush) that needs a lot of emotional/psychological support....so I watched with them....dad and I exchanging looks of incredulity and disgust when the Bushisms poured forth...but we were pretty stoked on Kerry...he hit up all the points, crossed Bush when he needed to be crossed, and for the first time, I did not feel like i was siding with Kerry because he was the anti-Bush, but rather, I felt very pro-Kerry with a lot of the things he brought up. Now this doesn't mean Kerry will win....i mean, he sounded articulate, intelligent, polished....dare I say, presidential....but maybe that much intelligence, once again, will alienate middle america...that likes fun sized sound bites like 'flip flop.' But at least he did not do what Gore did.....kerry was not paralyzed by the idiocy he faced (there were a few times when he was stifling laughter, it seemed), but he actually called the president out. So I was happy after the debates....I told Amy that the weekend before elections, we are driving to Ohio and going door2door.....at least we will try to hit up our nearest swing state to try and make some lil difference, at least so we can feel not totally useless. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
