Wearing Button

As we near the election, I've decided to wear my Kerry-Edwards button everywhere, just to put it out there as my statement to the world. It would be nice if this influenced someone to vote for K/E, but even in it doesn't, my preferences are out there, my wish spoken.

Mostly I forget I'm wearing it, and then I'm a little surprised when someone starts talking to me about the election. Luckily, I've had only positive experiences with this-- not people ranting their opposite views at me, but folks just telling me something election-related, like a store clerk who had Kerry's campaign manager come through the line, or someone else telling me a comment they heard. I guess my button puts it out there that I am a political being and open to political talk. I am curious what I'll hear in the next few weeks!
