Checking in for the live thread...
I brought popcorn, Shiner Bock, a half bottle of Dewars and some Topo Chico sparkling water :o)
Today, our 17 year old son talked an 18 year old friend of his into changing her vote from Kerry to Bush! I am so proud of him. He wanted to vote in this one so badly.
Good for your son! My son's 16 year old friend told me he wished he was 18. He wanted to vote for GWB so badly.
My own 18 year old voted in her first presidential election today! She's told me a few times she was voting for Nader but would laugh after she said it. She loves to pull my conservative chain.
Today she came home and her brother asked her who she voted for. She said, straight faced, "Nader, he's for legalizing pot."
It was 10 minutes before she told her brother she voted for Bush. :)
