So I was thinking....

Election day is coming!

For many of us, election season began many months ago. The planning, fundraising, canvassing, all of that has been in progress for almost a year now. Probably longer for some campaigns.

But for most of America, the campaign bell is just about to toll. We are rounding the mark, being 45 days out from one of the most important elections of our time. In the next couple of days, politicians will be campaigning full throttle. Working non-stop until election day on November 7.

A previously apathetic public seems slightly more interested in politics now that the number of American deaths under this administration has risen near 7,000. Maybe this culture of death is becoming a little too frightening? Perhaps it is the chipping away at our civil liberties? Or could it be (gasp) that Americans don't really support torture? Even when it is inflicted on those evil Muslims who we all know would wipe out America in a snap if given the opportunity? Hmmm....who would have thought?
For the sake of all of our futures, let's hope that people will care enough to get out and vote.
