Thanks for the comment.

I've been on board with Obama for a long time. I'm not sure the polls can be counted on as being accurate. I suspect that many voters, especially Democrats, would be reluctant to say they would not vote for Obama if polled, so they'll say that they will.

I'm 61 years old and have seen so much over the years. I still believe that this is a racist country. Despite the mess this country is in, I still have doubts that enough people will put away their bogotry and vote for a Black man. I hope to God that I'm wrong. Even in New York, I find that many people I talk to aren't voting for him even though they would likely vote for almost anyone else the Democrats could have put out there. Of course Obama will win New York. My point is that if I'm finding so much resistance to Obama here, how does that bode for him in other states not nearly as liberal as New York? As I said, I hope I'm dead wrong.

I've known about my interest in BDSM since I was a teenager. I put my involvement in it on hold during my marriage. since my wife wasn't into it, in spite of my trying to convince her to become involved. About 15 months after her passing, I became involved in an ongoing and very intense (at least for me) BDSM relationship with someone that happens to be an SG Hopeful. In fact, I would never have heard of SG or considered becoming a member if not for her. We are no longer in the BDSM phase of our relationship, but remain good friends. Her screen name is Lyrical.

Have a great time at the wedding. Where in NY Stae is it?
