Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not. ~Dr. Seuss
I had planned to write about God and Lipstick tonight, but I just read an article on Politico.com that says that McCain is closing a huge gap with women and I feel I must write about it. It appears that John McCain’s choosing of Sarah Palin as his running mate has women thinking that he has “a better understanding of women and what is important to them” than Barack Obama. Yes, you read that correctly.
But take a minute to go back and read it again.
Take your time, I know it is a little hard to swallow.
The mind definitely reels.
How can this be true? Have the women of
Apparently the women of America are not keeping up with this blog site, because according to a poll conducted for Lifetime TV September 11-15, McCain and Obama are virtually tied 44-42%. You can read it all for yourself here at Politico.com
There is some good news in the poll. Women do seem to understand that, “It is the economy” and that Obama/Biden will “help middle class families the most.” That’s refreshing, but we are not gaining back the lost ground fast enough. We must get to work and get to work quickly.
Look, this is no more difficult than organizing the Girl Scout Cookie Sales for the troop, no more complicated than arranging the school bake sale and not nearly as complex as those Halloween costumes you sewed a few years ago. This is definitely not brain surgery and I should know because I have had brain surgery!
All that is required of you is that you visit the Barack Obama website and sign up to volunteer. Here is the link: Volunteer. You will be contacted. Or you can call your local Barack Obama office (which will be listed on the website) and find out what you can do to help. Just fill in that form or make that call. It really isn’t difficult. I promise you’ll feel great having done it.
Let me know how it works out. I'll be sure to write about my experiences.
