I'm back from Texas!!!
And everyone in my family, aunts, uncles, cousins over 18, and my grandparents, and my great-grandmother, are voting for KERRY!

The only exception to the rule was my mother's cousin, who's overly botoxed with fake bottle blond hair, and her daughters are the most overly made-up daughters I've ever seen with globs of makeup on their faces.

She asked me if I was voting for Bush, and I said, "hell no!" I then turned my purse with the feminist sticker saying "Vote As If Your Life Depends On It" to her. "If you look at this, you can pretty much guess I'm not voting for Bush!"

6. We're working on it!
LOTS of support for K/E around town (Houston) - yard signs, stickers, etc. Of course, we have our share of Bushbots, but this is Texas. Almost everyone I know is voting/has voted for Kerry. There is hope!

well, almost no one. (Curse that monther's cousin... maybe the botox will cause her to forget Election day).

Excellent work, Slink.

12. yeah, it's good to know that there are good Dems in TX
My aunt has a kickass logo scrawled over the back of her SUV, "Restore Sanity---Please Vote!" I know the incongruity of having an SUV as a Dem, but she has five kids.
