After some early Obama-mania, I’ve been feeling kind of lethargic about the election, namely because I am so tired of S*r*h P*l*n that I could throw up every time I hear or see her name.  Seriously, this election cycle has gotten so cynical and ridiculous that I just want it to be over.  My enthusiasm for Obama remains undiminished; it’s my faith in this process and the current system that’s been battered and almost extinguished.

I haven’t donated to a candidate since Howard Dean, but since I’ve been carrying around some serious dread about the fact that our country, at the end of this administration, will be in the worst shape since I’ve been alive, I thought now might be a good time to give away some of those cheap American dollars.  My buddy Porter has promised to match donations to the Obama campaign given through his site, so I hope you’ll go there and give $20 or more: http://my.barackobama.com/page/outreach/view/main/portermason
