Well another hurtle crossed. It seems that I am not the only one who believes that Barack Obama is a good choice for our next president. As I was watching the news last evening one of the newscasters was saying that there are many Democratic households who are split between our top candidates. In this instance mine is one of them in the sense that we differed in our choices. My DH would have preferred to see John Edwards as one of the top candidates, but alas that was not to be. I am not sure where he will lean at this point.
It will definitely be interesting to see where this will all play out by convention time.
Have a great day.

Super Tuesday
At no time in my adult life have I ever paid as much attention to an election or the candidates who were running. It appears that I have finally grown up at least in this sense of the word.
What makes us want to take part in the process while others seem to feel that their vote never counts. I have a stepson who feels we waste our time voting as it never counts. I tell him all the time he needs to grow up. One of our inalienable rights while we are on earth is the right to vote. I am also glad to see that many of the younger generations are exercising this right. I tend to get rather defensive when I hear someone complaining about this or that public figure, but yet they have never bothered to even register to vote.
I am rather looking forward to the outcome of this super Tuesday at least where the Democrats are concerned. As previously stated I do support Senator Obama and sincerely hope he does get the nomination this year. We need so desperately a whole new perspective in the White House.
Enough of my soap box for today. Will continue after the counts are in tomorrow.
