So here i am, all done with the Caucuses for a couple years. It was quite the experience! Huckabee won our county AND the state! So I'm happy about that. Although my DH just pointed out to me that Huckabee is missing a tooth or something and it's driving him nuts. LOL now wouldn't that sound like something I'd say??
It was a little crazy tho trying to get in the door, registered and then finding a seat. Not to mention I had to begin my collection process of signatures of which I should have brought more with me, but I didn't know how many i needed. I was nominated as precinct secretary and one of two delegates to go down to Des Moines. I have to ask DH what i was nominated for b/c i was flying around and not able to fully understand what was being announced b/c i was still on the last thing. I took on the job of reading everyones names from our townships that signed in. Well we just happen to be the largest precinct there with some very interesting names. Like Shilter...or something like that...I pronounced it like SHITler!! Yeah, not right but good grief I'm not originally from the area and those Irish names got me. Better then the Dutch names from my neck of the woods. Therefore after reading the names and being nominated by others for the positions, people asked me so what's your name? Or where do you live?? I think it was pretty obvious I wasn't from the area. Oh well I didn't let it get to me and just laughed it off.
It was a fun night and I'm please with the outcome. I'm equally pleased to see Hillary in 3rd place as of a couple minutes ago. I worry at any democrat being in office but most of all her. HOWEVER I do think if she'd win the nomination the Republicans would have the best chance at taking her out.
Well folks....if these last two posts didn't stir up some controversy I'm not sure what will. Politics and Religion they say are two subjects to avoid. BUT if you feel strongly about both, of which I do, I'm going to talk about them. If you don't like it then I advice you find another blog to read:) (Well of course i don't want you to)
I promise one of these days I'll post about my New Years resolutions. Not that they are exciting but I do have some!
