I love Ravelry . . .

This online community of knitters and crocheters rocks hard. It's where I discovered Knitters for Obama, which now numbers 2689 members, (growing daily), which has knit and crocheted 1000 items for homeless veterans, and which has raised thousands of dollars for the campaign.

The choice by McCain of Sarah Palin has also spawned a few new groups . . .

Two pro-Palin groups -

The Sassy Confident Sarah Palin Ravelrers [sic]

Aiding Sarah Palin for Vice President is exciting and frustrating at the same time. Encouraging each other to be confident, sassy, and taking no crap from no - task here. [sic].

Palin v. Biden

This is a group to discuss the differences between both running mates and their prospective leaders of the 2008 election. [sic]

And my personal favorite

Sarah Palin Must Be Stopped

For those who *really* don't want to see this woman anywhere near the 48 continental United States, much less the White House. (And, it looks like Hawaii doesn't want her, either.)
