Oh, I mentioned that. She then said Romney lies and is an elitist. I asked her if she watched the debates or bothered to learn anything about Romney. She hemmed and hawed and her husband rolled his eyes behind one of the twins. She lived on welfare for a few years, then got herself to college and earned a degree in computer software, which is what she does now. She is proud of getting herself out of poverty. Still couldn’t reach her. New York is going Obama with or without her vote. I was astounded, though. Not speechless. I figured even she had to see through Obama by now. Guess not.
Next time, remind her who has the bigger pension.
xshub was up in New Hartford taking his dad to the doctor today. he called and was astounded at the GINORMOUS romney signs he saw along 81 and the # of them up there, in general. he also saw a bumper sticker that said, “I don’t care where you were born, I am only bothered by where you live NOW.” hahaha! pretty good for upstate NY i think!
In a bit of disturbing news though, he said that at the midnight madness which is the first basketball practice/event of the season, they let people in without tickets and that a lot of “townies” came and that as a consequence there were several STABBINGS in the upper decks! xsboy said that the houses along Walnut and Comstock [where the frats and a lot of other student off campus housing are located] were warned by the police not to have any parties for the foreseeable future, because it was learned that its a gang initiation rite to STAB AN SU STUDENT. nice. The police told them they could not protect them if they had open parties.
