Well, we're hoping it's the dawn of a new age. Your Long and Short of it All hosts voted today, Maggie "The Maverick" voted for her hero John McCain, and Joey "Joebama" voted for his hero Barack Obama. Maggie is a bit grouchy, but has accepted the defeat of her candidate, and says "I urge all Americans in congratulating Mr. Obama, and I hope we can work through our differences to make this a stronger nation for tomorrow's dachshund puppies." Joey says "I've waited my whole life for a Democratic President. It's a dream come true. Dog Bless America."Michelle Obama has stated that she will adopt a rescue a dog after the election, please keep us dachshunds in mind. We can make a few phone calls and hook you up in a second. It's time for a dachshund in the White House.
It was nice to hear Obama say these words during his victory speech: "Sasha and Malia, I love you both more than you can imagine. And you have earned the new puppy that’s coming with us to the White House.”
