GOOD NEWS! POST YOUR GOOD NEWS HERE!! (vanity)

Reading FR over the past 48 hours or so has been downright depressing. Yesterday I found myself snapping at my children for no other reason than my negative state of mind. The election is still a month away. I don't believe that all is lost. Polls are being manipulated and so are we!

So, what GOOD news have you heard lately? What is going on in your part of the country that gives you hope that McCain will win? What positive anecdotes can you share with all of us? Post it here. We could all use the encouragement.

I filled up my car with gas today for $3.319. I realize that the “good news” is relative, but I’ll take what I can get.

Got that right. I was excited when I saw it for $3.93 in my neighborhood.

Well, thanks - I like your screen name, too, being a huge fan of both retro & kittens!

I forgot to mention in my response that Mayor Bradley is black - minor omission ;o)

I went yesterday to pick up a McCain/Palin yard sign at the local GOP headquarters and they were out.

The gentleman working there said they had gotten several thousand signs in the other day and they were gone by the end of the day. He said more are coming, but doesn’t expect them to last long. I did get some bumper stickers and buttons though.

BTW: I’m in Central Florida, right along the I-4 corridor which is key to winning the state.

In other good news, pre-election voting (fraud) turnout here in Ohio is much lower than expected.

I know! I heard that yesterday on Fox, they said the turn out was mediocre at best and the Obambi camp was disappointed (that their fraud scheme is sucking big time)

Another quiet and interesting news item. . . Thanks.

The lovely Sarah has landed safely and I am watching her get off the plane for the debate on Fox News.

I still have not met an Obama voter yet in my lil town in my deep red state. I also have never met a liberal in my life, I guess that is good news:)

I asked a girl out on a date the other day and she wasn’t repulsed by the idea. Things really are looking up! :)

Here is my Good News.

The Senate verison of the Bailout bill was only 850 Billion instead of 855 Billion. Further the Senate Bialout Bill didn't give money to terrorists and Communists directly.

Breaking: JimRob to ban vanities on FR from now until the election.

I think that would help a lot of people on here feel better.

A lot of this stuff is psychological. The enemedia has a vested interest in demoralizing you. They are active here on FR. If you can't resist them, sign off, drive over to your local Republican committee office and volunteer to make phone calls or walk the streets. It's amazing how much better THAT will make you feel.

I got mr. uvular to take FR address to work for folks who asked him about ACORN. 3 people asked for a copy of the address. Imagine, there are still folks out there that have not heard of FR!
