Sampson and the Young Republicans

On Tuesday, Sampson said they took a vote at the school of who would win the election and Obama won. Sampson was upset because he voted for John McCain. He knew a John in his class and also McCain had more pets. I told him that was good, he needed to have some principles behind his vote. We were watching the coverage Tuesday night and he was upset when they wouldn't show the results from Ohio because he wanted to see daddy's vote. They finally did show it and he was able to go to bed. When he woke up on Wednesday and found out that Obama had won he was really mad. Sophie tried to calm him down by telling him that other people mommy and daddy voted for had won. She told him that we voted for Domenick and he won, and he asked if he was a republican. 'Well no' Sophie said, then he said 'I thought you only liked people with an R by their name?' Not all the time buddy, sometimes you vote for the people that you think will do the best job. His passion reminds me of a young Michael J. Fox (or Alex P. Keaton) on Family Ties. Someday you'll make a good republican buddy, someday. . .
