Go Tep's dad!

If Obama wins -- and I just can't quite bring myself to type "when," even though I really think he will, because I was so burned over Kerry, after all the predictions had him winning by a healthy margin over Bush -- it's going to be because of people like my dad.

Yes, without the Democratic base, Obama couldn't be elected. But I'm 100% honest about my vote: I would vote for pretty much anyone the Democrats ran. So my vote is a lock.

But people like my dad, who used to vote Republican because that's what he'd always done, who I'm sure Sarah Palin would consider "Joe Six-Pack," are going to surprise the hell out of the country on election day. I truly believe it.

“Not dead yet!”

Does Obama smoke? I had no idea.

Like Jesse said, he's trying to quit.

Yeah, sorry about that. October in Utah. It won't stick, though. Just bring warm clothes.

So, it's not so bad, 'cause it's a dry snow?

He's supposedly quit while running for President.

Yeah, because quitting during a stressful time makes it that much easier...

(Hell, his vice could be eating puppies and I'd vote for him. If a president wants to smoke to deal with the pressure of fixing 8 years of a morally corrupt, ignorant, hateful, war-mongering administration, then all I have to say is menthol or regular, Mr. President?)

I think he promised Michelle that he'd quit.

BTW, I hear that they decided to adopt from rescue rather than getting a puppy.

Well, one of the best-kept secrets of the Kennedy Administration is just how fierce a smoker Jackie was. She took great care to never be photographed with a cigarette and this was at a time when it was beyond socially acceptable. She really understood the value of the image they were trying to sell and sell it she would, by damn.

Probably to reduce the temptation to eat the puppy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

From your keyboard to God's ears, Steph.
