I wonder if on the political message boards they are so passionate about fastpitch ?

I have my ballot in front of me. It lists 5 candidates for President. Maybe we should have been allowed to hear from some of the other 3.
My cousin in Miami tells me that her ballot lists 13 candidates for President (I don't know, though. She drinks.)
Under each of the candidates the names of their members of the electoral college are listed. I don't remember ever seeing that in the past. But it should remind people that it is not the popular vote that elects a president. It is what specific states he carries.
I have to shake my head when I hear polls. Who answers those, anymore, anyway? I don't pick up the phone if i don't recognize the number. The plurality in the general polling may not reflect which states a candidate is actually going to carry.

Bottom line, softball families are passionate about everything we do. We make things happen and not wait for things to happen. I wish the U.S. had more people like the ones we interact with every weekend at friendlies and tournaments. I am not going to beg the ObamaMessiah to turn back the waters and save us all.

I think NU is in Vegas, and the HB "Pub" isn't the one he's hanging out in tonight!!

The latest video that the mainstream media is choosing to irresponsibly ignore:
