I’m a little freaked out. There’s his guy with a weird name and he has my email address. At first, he only sent me emails every few weeks, and he signed them “Thanks, Barack.”
Weird, I thought. That’s kind of creepy. How did this guy get my email address? At first I assumed he was a Nigerian prince, some Prince “Obama” who “needs my help,” but then someone told me he was running for president.
Now he’s taken to signing his emails with, “Thank you for all you do, Barack.” Well, all I’ve done is put his bumper sticker on my car, and if he knows I’ve done that he knows what kind of car I drive and probably knows where I live.
Then I really freaked out. Because then his wife started sending me emails, and the last one she sent was signed, I swear to you, “Thank you for your commitment, passion, and hard work, Michelle. ” (Italics, boldface, and underline mine.) So now this weirdo is emailing me like, daily, AND his wife is getting jealous now too. So, a double threat. This is not even counting the pressure laid on me by his buddy, “Joe.” Joe, I am sick of hearing how great your friend Barack is.
Oh, and he even made sure I knew he would be in my town this past weekend. I can assure you I did not “meet him in Saint Louis.” Weirdo.

Yeah, I’ve been getting e-mails from all of those people and more. I get the local Obama/Democrats sending me stuff too.Of course, my snail mail box is filled with Republican cards and mailers. There’s something ironic there, but I still hate it.Most of it is such nonsense, I’ll never understand how anyone can support those clowns.
The worst thing about our election campaign is that Helen, the present incumbent (oh how that word suits her) keeps feeling obliged to smile. Did you ever see Nanny McPhee?
You missed an amazing day…not a breath of hostility or anger.
The event kicked ass. Took my breath away — the hopefulness, the excitement, the solidarity.I particularly enjoyed joining my fellow liberals in taunting the anti-abortionists camped on Memorial Drive after the rally.
In addition to email, that “weirdo” is also sending me text messages. I kind of dig the special attention.I have a sign in my front yard; I guess he knows where I live, then. Do you think he’ll come over?
The Prince’s minions call my house regularly to speak to my son (who has worked as a volunteer). I nicely tell them that he is now living in a dorm in New Orleans and that they should feel free to call him there. But they keep calling anyway. Do they not talk to each other? Maybe I should record a standard greeting to play for them: “Hello, and thank you for calling. No, Ian is not here. He is residing in Nola. You know, the place that Katrina devastated? Quit calling here for him. He will not return until after the election, which Ian is assuming your man will win. He’s already mailed in his Absentee Ballot. Thank you and goodbye.”
Ugh, at least you’re not being stalked by a creepy old man. Seriously, if he has his minions call my cell phone and use my daytime minutes one more time it’ll drive me to drink. Oh, wait…I already do that!
I went to a convention center and that weird dude was there and there were like, easily 10-12 thousand people there shouting that dude’s name. Wtf.
