we're winning this thing, guys... this is increasingly clear -

and we could jump the gun and start acting like gracious winners...

sarah palin is no threat to us or what we hope to do for America -

and to waste these FABULOUS 4 weeks in any negativity - when we can be connecting with our fellow americans who ARE aligned with us or who want to believe but are having trouble making the leap...

if it were the last day of your life, would you spend/waste even a nanosecond of that 24 hours even thinking of sarah palin? nada... if it isn't worthy of our last hours, it isn't worthy of any of our hours that always COULD BE our last...

better to focus on what we CAN do - new innovative, ingenious ways to bring our country back from the brink...

forging bonds with each other in a Kinder Gentler country...

i am sickened by what i've seen of both mccain and palin but i prefer to spend my time reaching out to my fellow americans and trying to think of What We Can Do, what we can reasonably do...

and i must say that watching her little girl piper licking her hand to smooth down the hair of her baby brother as palin was delivering her convention speech... and then last friday seeing that little girl carrying that baby off the stage -

i can't hate or mistreat the woman who gave birth to these children...even if/when she is hateful and mistreating to us...

i read afterward that 90% of down syndrome babies are aborted after the amniocentesis test... i don't know if i could have or would have done what i think is The Right Thing and "gone through with it", having a choice Not To... but i admire her for it and was touched beyond words by the sweetness between her 2 youngest children...

forgive them because they know not how awful what they are doing is -

and, please, let's not waste a minute of this great 4 weeks - a time that, at 56, i canNOT believe i have lived to see - the amazing grace of the obamas and the powerful experience of community they have jumpstarted for us -

let's LOVE this next wonderful month...

and brace ourselves for the blowback/payback on november 5th - because a LOT of repubs aregoing to be riproaring mad and burned up... we are gonna pay for the win -

but til then? it's all good -

fired UP!
