I tend to keep my politics to myself. However, I have absolutely NO control over those dogs I take care of. They’ve got minds of their own, you know.

Oh Chester. You come back and visit anytime. (Thanks, Jim, for the pic.)

And happy election day, everyone.

    You have finally made a comment! Sitting in Oz listening to the press I have wondered which way you would go and why you had not mentioned it on your blog before! He comes across as by far the best candidate from our press but wondered what your own personal view was, if nothing else you are always direct!

    Great photo! Great dog! Hope all goes well with you all as you vote today. Those of us not in the USA are continuing to watch with a keen and alert interest, since your choice is going to affect us all … I may well even stay up through the night to see what happens – and put matchsticks in the work-bag for eye-lid propping-open tomorrow!

    Looking in from Canada, sometimes I think your US politics is GOING TO THE DOGS!! Good luck today in the election. Either way, change is coming, and hopefully for the better. Peace out.

    Chester is one smart dog!! If you haven’t voted I stress Do IT NOW!! ๐Ÿ™‚

    I always had a sense Chester was smarter than the average dog! Here’s to hoping some elephants in the crowd turn out to be just as smart!!!

    Happy Election Day Chester! Now where does Chip stand?

  13. Melanie K. says

    November 4, 2008 at 9:04 am

    Nope, really don’t agree with the dog.

  14. TracyBzz says

    How about a vote for Chester!? Good luck with voting today…here in Canada we voted last month.

    LOVE the sign!!! Go Obama!

  18. Dorothy says

    November 4, 2008 at 10:04 am

    Sorry Chester, I don’t really agree. Maybe I do with Chip instead?

    Happy Election day!

    My dogs are Canadian, but we had a discussion last night and they’d vote with Chester!

    What a wonderful photo!
    What an intelligent dog!
    ;o)

    Live your values.
    Love your country.
    VOTE!

    Cathy! I am like totally crushed! You’ve always seemed so reasonable! How can this be?! And to think that I have loved you all this time in a way that only a stranger can. It’s just shocking.

    Okay, I still like you. Scrapbooking supercedes politics, but only where you’re concerned!! I HATE PAYING OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNTS OF MONEY IN THE FORM OF TAXES!! There, got that off my chest.

  22. Paula says

    November 4, 2008 at 10:34 am

    GOOD DOG! Okay, okay… and GOOD GIRL, Cathy! And as my 3-year old (4-year old and 6-year old too) would say, “Barack Obabm wins!” I’m not wanting to jinx things with over-confidence, so I’m just keeping my fingers crossed! HOPE. ;o)

    My dog needs some serious meds, yes I think she is bi-polar. That being said, we remember that she is a DOG and will not be voting. BUT if ACORN had its way you never know……

  24. Dee says

    November 4, 2008 at 10:35 am

    I voted McCain. Obama really did not convince me. NOT hope, just hype.

  25. BethjW says

    November 4, 2008 at 10:50 am

    Just go to love those intelligent dogs!

  26. kendra says

    November 4, 2008 at 10:51 am

    Does Chester lift his leg on that sign? Sorry. I couldn’t resist! ; )

  27. Shirley MacDonald says

    November 4, 2008 at 11:37 am

    Where on earth did we go WRONG!!! At least we have one child for one and one for the other GO McCain/Palin Love Mom PS we already voted and did our duty.

  28. Kim says

    November 4, 2008 at 11:39 am

    That totally cracked me up! We’re a bipartisan house here – so even the dog didn’t get a sign. Thanks for making me laugh!

    Kim
    P.S. I’m with Chester.

  29. lisamcg says

    Im with Chester. Go Obama!
    Happy Election Day.

  30. mjmiller says

    November 4, 2008 at 12:45 pm

    GO Chester!
    And GO Obama!

  31. Kim K says

    November 4, 2008 at 12:51 pm

    I’m with Chester! And boy, I’m constantly amazed by how strongly everyone feels in this election! I can’t understand how someone could support McCain (the old McCain, yes, the new McCain…no way!) Meanwhile, I KNOW they can’t understand how I could support Obama. I’m hopeful that when Obama wins, (please?) people will see that he CAN reach across party lines. Give him a chance. This man has GOT IT. Can’t you feel it???

  32. Amber says

    Chester won’t have his pay taken away in taxes to have it redistributed to those who don’t want to work but want everything handed to them.

  33. Christy says

    November 4, 2008 at 1:22 pm

    Love the dog… but I am a McCain girl my self & voted early this morning. Still love you Cathy

  34. Robyn says

    Hee!

    BTW, smaller Pentagon budget = lower taxes.

    Let’s hope the dogs are right!!

  43. Stephanie says

    Dogs are smart!:)

    Today is the beginning of a new world! I’m so happy and proud of you, America is a great nation.
    We, Europeans, are celebrating with you!

  46. Lotti says

    November 5, 2008 at 7:40 am

    Yep, this country is going to the dogs…
    sad, sad day…
    Palin in 2012!!!

  47. Lotti says

    November 5, 2008 at 7:43 am

    Yep, the country is definitely going to the dogs now…sad, sad day.
    Palin in 2012!!!

    Hmm, it’s entirely possible that I haven’t given dogs enough credit.

    As a dutch girl i wonder about the things people say these days. Isn’t it a miracle that you get an african american president? And i read about the abortion issue, but McCain also stands for the death penalty! American people have sometimes funny ideas about life….
    I think this change is a real change and congratulate you all on this magical day!

  50. Dee Pounds says

    November 6, 2008 at 7:30 pm
