I don’t know..... I think a lot of people will vote for Obama simply because of the historical aspect of the election. They want to vote for the first black man ever to be nominated by a major party. How many thousands of people stood in line for many hours just to acquire the 1st iPod? Same for the iPhone. Being “first” on any thing has its appeal for some people.

If we want McCain & Sarah to win, we have to work very hard to ensure the victory.

today my husband and i were talking with our electrician... a black man who is a fellow Christian and goes to our church... he owns his own small business and is doing very well... lives in a beautiful 5,000+ square foot custom built home on acreage... is not hurting financially... he told us today that he is voting for Obama... i said i was voting Sarah Palin... my husband said we are prolife and could only vote for McCain and could never vote for Obama... the electrician said, "i'm voting for Obama... i know as a Christian it's... " and he trailed off and didn't finish his sentence...
