Stupid politics. Stupid midterms. Stupid mistakes being made a week before the election. Stupid media for picking up the stupid story. Stupid Democrats for bungling the response to the stupid story. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
I'm hanging on by a thread.
John McCain's now stumping for DeVos.
This makes me physically ill.
I turn into a crazy lunatic person during elections. I don't sleep. I obsessively check polls and watch the news. I also carry with me an eternal optimism that many find cute and I find emotionally devastating. I keep trying to pinpoint what happens to me. My political interests become less of hobby and more of an obsession. When the candidates or proposals I support lose, I take it personally somehow though I'm not convinced 'personally' is the best word. I'm still trying to work it out. I simultaneously love and despise this time of year. I live for elections and yet I'm repulsed by them.
See?
Crazy lunatic person.
I blame being born between Nixon's resignation and the end of the Vietnam War.
