The middle-aged lesbian take on the election so-far.
When McCain announced that Palin was the choice, my jaw dropped and I said "Wow." My coworker said "What, the hotness factor?" Then I was speechless. The what? We say these things at work? Oh, I forget I was out at work.
That's right, it's 2008, not 1992, and I'm out at work. And two Obama supporters, a straight guy, and a lesbian, can laugh about the idiocy of a lesbian supporting Sarah Palin because she's hot. But the fact that we can joke about this at work speaks volumes about how far we have come since Pat Buchanan decried the "cultural war" in 1992.
