Change You Can Feel Somewhat Ambivalent About

Vote for Obama today!

To Obama supporters: Please don't neglect to vote today. Many of the predictions are encouraging, but don't get complacent and think that you don't need to vote. Who knows, you might be in line next to an undecided voter, and you can talk to them about your choice.

To undecided voters: If you really exist, then I encourage you to vote your hopes instead of your fears, and not to let the Repubs scare you with whatever they're trying to scare you with today. All you hear from them are lies, smears, and personal attacks, because they can't stand on the issues alone.

No candidate is perfect, but Obama offers this country the best chance to move in a new, positive direction. Ending the fraudulent war in Iraq, giving tax relief to ordinary Americans instead of to corporate billionaires, and leading our country with intelligence and wisdom instead of continuing the idiocy of the last eight years -- these are only a few of the reasons to VOTE OBAMA.
