Dinner Party where McCain and Obama were not invited.

In a recent post I talked about letting my family in on the little secret of my political leanings, including the link to my blog.  We had a dinner party Saturday evening together to celebrate three birthdays and it was a lovely time with excellent food and the miracle of us all around the same table. 

So here are excerpts from the political conversation between my family (who will vote against Barack Obama – not for John McCain) and us (my hubby and I who are voting for Barack Obama this year.) 

Riveting isn’t it?!

Yep, that’s it.  Those are the highlights.  It’s all there.  Practically word for word.

My Mom was the only one to actually respond to my email, and her comment was in a phone call before the party.  She said her “prayer was that we could all come together in unity as a family for this evening.”  Which struck me as quite odd since this isn’t a group that fights with each other.  After thinking awhile I chalked that comment up to the fact that I “came out.”

So there you have it.  I guess this was one of those town hall meetings that McCain keeps talking about.  And I was totally looking forward to hearing their thoughts.  Tsk!
