You might gather I am more of the liberal persuasion than the conservative one; so I was part of that rather large minority that did not vote for George Bush. However, I don’t really intend this blog to be about the politics of the election – well not directly anyway. Still, when pundits, pollsters, anchors, and general folks talk about Red America and Blue America, I am reminded of Eshu, the African trickster, who wears a hat of two colors (one different on each side) so that depending on which perspective one has of him, one thinks his hat is either black or white.
