Hi Concerned Canadian,

I am also quite concerned about this election, but more concerned about you. I think you need to get some help before you give yourself a heart-attack or something. Just do you part, go and vote or better yet, early vote and take a hot bath. Your yelling (unless your keyboard caps lock button is broken) simply shows that you are getting way too worked up and emotional about the whole thing. Maybe you could ask your Dr. for a sedative,  because I am sincerely afraid your blood pressure is getting too high. Oh, by the way, - most of what you have said reflects the racist, fear-mongering tactics that the McCain camp has been employing, mainly because they don't have a strong policy or other platform to lean on. I see that their Karl Rove techniques have worked on you. Luckily most Americans (or Canadians, or other world residents) are not that ignorant and racist.
