I was so proud. Not everyone takes delight in politics. One person's debate is another person's firm conviction. There is usually little room for consensus when dogma in the room. Hence polite conversation usually steers clear of both religion and politics.
Polite conversation is also usually extremely bland.
And now, it is the morning after the election. I write this column on Tuesday and so dare not predict the outcome of any race in the state or nation. I can predict that I am tired. Only a political junkie has a 4 year old who know the names of presidential candidates. And so, suffice it to say, I stayed up throughout the night flipping channels to get results.
