OK really 2 years of campaigning has come to that statement. The talking head who have talked and talked for the last 3 years have boiled down the downfall of the McCain campaign to that statement. WHAT?
Also what happened to staying up late in the night to see what happens? Now it is almost 8 and Nathan is walking around saying Obama has it. There is no more fun in the presidential elections. I heard that the Prime Minister race in the UK is a six week blitz. No fuss to muss. I think that they have that correct! And what to do with all the money that we save in this blitz? We give it to impoverished countries that is foreign diplomacy! OK I will step off my soapbox and move on. Oh but how far we have come as a country to elect an african American, that is wonderful to me. But I am McCain.
Tomorrow we (the whole family minus the kids) leave for Louisville KY. The American Pharmacy Association and Joint Forces are holding their annual Jerry W. Ross Banquet. Needless to say that this is the first year that Jerry W. Ross will not attend. They instead are honoring his life and his legacy. The association decided that it would be nice to have Jason, Mom and me as well as our spouses. So we leave in the morning. I am looking forward to seeing all of the goo dfriends that my father worked with, inspired in his own, and whom looked up to dad. He was a force that is for sure. But it is also with heavy heart that I attend. I do not want to be the daughter of the late Jerry Ross. What I would do to have him there, laughing, working the room with all his friends. I am sure that we will have a nice time, just a hard time.
Until we meet again.

My heart goes out to you and your family, it must be hard to go to "his" banquet and not have him there. But how awesome to be able to honor his life and accomplishments with so many friends and collegues. I'll be praying for your strength during this time.
