Yeah, deep down I’m afraid you may be right. What’s that saying? “The more things change, the more they stay the same.” What a depressing thought.
Man, I hope things work out alright. Some scary problems in the world right now. I never used to care but I do now. I got two kids and leaving the place better than when I found it — that’s just understood. I can’t do the opposite. We’ve got to get real about the issues we’re facing.
Susan Eisenhower’s OpEd in the WaPo was the difference for me, in terms of backing BO. We’ve got big issues, and it’s time to turn the page, new generation of leaders. I always liked Eisenhower a lot. So I guess I trust Ike’s grandkid. Sounds stupid, I know. I do alot of things on instinct though. And I’m seldom wrong, although it has been known to happen. My wife is keeping count, I think.
