I was talking to my sister for the first time in a long time yesterday. She is a nurse and mother of two who lives in Warminster, Pennsylvania in a house of enviable proportions (especially if you live in New York). We got to talking about her kids, her job and the films she no longer has the time to see, when she casually drops the bomb. "You know I voted for Bush, right?" Needless to say, I was stunned. I never imagined that she would camp with the enemy. Twenty minutes later, after regaining consciousness, I said something resembling "..Um..(ahem)...WHAT!?!?! What the %$#^!%$#@@%$!" And so on. I finally asked her why she would do such a thing. She replied "I didn't like Kerry." "Well..then why?.....Oh, never mind." I quickly realized that it didn't matter, Kerry took Pennsylvania anyway. I guess the point here really is that you may think you know your family, but take it from me, you DON'T. But blood is thicker than your average politician, so I've decided to forgive her.
But only because Kerry took Pennsylvania.
