It feels good

To take the lead. For some reason, wherever I go, I seem to invite a political discussion, even without trying.

To Albert, from the pizza joint, thanks for voting- thanks for being a card-carrying supporter of Concealed-carry, and for supporting John McCain in Fitchburg, WI.

And with that, let's just sit in our glory moment, as short-lived as it may be:

John McCain has overtaken Barack Obama in the Gallup daily tracking poll and has his highest level of support in that poll since early May.

McCain leads Obama 48 percent to 45 percent among registered voters, by Gallup’s measure. McCain has so far earned the same convention bounce as Obama, though at a more rapid pace.

Disclaimer: this is not bragging. This is just pure joy that others are climbing on board!
