What an outstanding way to spend election day.
Posted by: KathyHowe at November 5, 2008 09:15 AMI couldn't comment on this last night for some reason; but, this made me think of all the years my grandmother spent hauling voters to the poles for the democratic party...God I miss her! Anyway, she worked every election day that I can remember from my youth. Good for Bill. I'm sure it was a moving experience all day long...
