2008 Letter from Montreal
posted by on November 3 at 21:45 PM
Hey Eli,I’m from Massachusetts, but I go to school in Montreal, and I can’t tell you how many of my Canadian friends are so impressed and inspired by Obama. How many students and even professors, upon learning that I am American, smile at me when I say that I voted for Obama. The day after the election four years ago, I came to school dejected and depressed. On Wednesday I hope to go to school proud, and very happily hungover.

Dear Eli,
Like most people who have heard about "Cd players" and other new-fangled inventions, I voted almost 2 weeks ago for John McCain by mail.
I was proud to cast a vote for someone who served our country to the utmost and has a mainstream record that can appeal to everyone.
However, my guess is that King County "election" workers looked up my name in a database, saw an "R" and failed the vote for signature verification reasons (I often sign my name sloppily).
So, the Tyranny of Liberalism will probably enslave us for years to come here in Wash-IN-TON.
Signed,
J. A. Bailo

All of these comments are not so mysteriously making me cry. I am so patriotic right now. I love my country so much. I'm a global citizen, and this election represents more than I can express. Let my constantly streaming tears do the talking.
