    Partisan pooch

    Didja' vote?

    Anyway, this morning Gidget and I went out to the local polling place to keep SM company. He's a democratic precinct chair, and he's going to be there all day -- and I mean ALL day (about 12 hours).

    We saw lots of interesting stuff, but fortunately none of it (so far) involved voter fraud or bullying by any particular party.

    And Gidget was very, very popular. Because she's a sweet dog, very cute and well behaved around people (although not other dogs). And even though she was clearly partisan (with stickers for Cardin, O'Malley and other local dem races), she had bi-partisan support. Everyone loved her. She even had her picture taken by a reporter from the local paper as well as USA Today. So she may be almost famous!
    (For those of you not from the DC-metro area, the republican candidate for Senate, Michael Steele, launched his campaign with an ad saying that he loves puppies... so we wanted to show that Cardin had puppy supporters.)
