OBAMA NEWS

At this time, Obama is in the lead: he currently "..holds double-digit margins over McCain in Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin and carries a nine-point advantage over his Republican rival in Colorado, according to a polling conducted by Quinnipiac University for washingtonpost.com and the Wall Street Journal."

Barack Obama's rising lead in national polling shows that people believe he can turn the economic crisis, war, etc. around. The daily Gallup poll shows that he still leads 10 percent over John McCain (51 percent to 41 percent).

I read an article in the Express this morning on my way to work and I was stunned! The "economic crisis" should be considered a devastating time of my generation. A catastrophe. An absolute disappointment. And it has probably been dubbed as such however I came into complete realization of its effects on the American people, especially families whose main concerns are sending their kids to college, utility & medical bills, and the list goes on. So far, I've learned about 3 families who has committed murder-suicides because of job loss and overall burden in home foreclosures. There are probably more that have been reported or has yet to be made public.

It made me realize that this election is not only for me to make my voice heard but also for the immeasurable lives lost.....


NOTE: Isn't John McCain the Senator in Arizona??? Hhmmm...
