From the mouths of babes (Election related)
Tomorrow my kids have off since my school is a polling place. So I said to them as I dismissed them "the next time I see you we will have a new president, I wonder who it will be"
So one kid in my class says "Oh it's going to be McCain I just know it"
So I said "oh yeah how do you know"
He said "he is waaaaay ahead, I watch the news"
Just so you know the kids have NO clue about who I am voting for. We talk about both candidates. They have asked me repeatedly and I have refused to tell them.

According to a few of my kids, Obama wants to ruin the environment and raise gas prices.

The majority of my kids have thought the election was between Hillary and Obama for sometime. Most of them only know about Obama.
Some have told me that one of their parents wants Obama and one wants McCain

Kathleen, I love that child!
I told him that he was my favorite...J/K
It has been very hard not to tell them who I want to win since this is a big part of my life BUT I don't feel that it is right

Re: From the mouths of babes (Election related)
My son's teachers seem to have no compunction about telling their kids who the 'best' candidate is. Robbie came home today and told me that I have to vote for Obama. I asked him why he felt that way and he said it is because his teacher told him that Obama wants to stop war and give free milk to all the starving babies. And Mccain? He just wants to make a lot of money and clean up golf courses.

Well.. he is 7. So who knows what she ACTUALLY said. Whatever it was.. it clearly favored one candidate over the other.
