theres already to many anti-palin articles so i like to think that this is more of a barack is better than mccain (but that is really the same thing). so here are my thoughts:
i think palin will have unfortinate luck untill 2 weeks after the election. i think this because palin is going to get picked on by every one (i'm not even kidding) but after the election i think she will become somthing like a celebrity. thought no. 2) palin is really ______. i can't say it so many people say it, it just drives me nuts. although i have to say it or everyone would think i am an idiot.
Hello fellow Obamacans!
While I was at my Mom's in my small home town, I read the "Daily Clintonian" and they had the definition of a Liberal in it.
I wanted to share this with you all, since the Right (wrong) Republicans always make it sound like a dirty little 4 letter word.
Read this and you tell me just what part of it you are not proud to call yourself!
Liberal....1a.....Not limited to or by, established, traditional, orthodox or authoritarian attitudes, views or dogmas: free from bigotry.
1b....Favoring proposals for reform, open to new ideas for progress and tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others; broadminded.
Gee if only Mr. Bush and Cheney were one of these! LOL!
I am not sure about you but I feel preety good about being able to call myself a LIBERAL and I would think anyone with half a brain would like to think of themselves as one!
Just wanted to share a smile!
I am so glad Barack is going on this trip tomorrow and I am sure he will make all of us and all of America proud.
He is so Presidential and I can see him fitting in in any circumstance he is in. I think Senator McCain is really afraid that Barack is going to do very well.
One proud Barack friend,
LuAnn

Now that Kosovo is automomous what is the UN going to do to ensure peace and anti-separitist views??????
I've always been the type to make a new year's resolution, but unlike many, I have a Zen Buddhist like ability to actually keep my resolution and often times surpass them. So this year, after swearing off Coca-Cola and all sodas for 2007, I decided to dedicate more time to working out and eating healthy. Everything seemed rather calm and normal until I happened to stumble upon the Iowa Caucus on C-Span. I had read about Obama in Rolling Stone and countless other magazines as well as heard some murmurings about him on different news outlets. I remember as a kid hearing about Jesse Jackson and how he was running for president. Coming from a Nuyorican family, there really wasn't a feeling of racial pride, but I felt hopeful because, as a minority, I found it promising and refreshing to see someone who was not white vying for the presidency. Soon I realized he was full of hot air and felt deflated by his ballooned promises and all too real shortcomings. The rhyming was a cute little song and dance gimmick I eventually saw passed. Mind you, I was only in 3rd grade, so it took me a minute.
However, on December 24th, I happened to see Obama addressing a crowd in Iowa and got the same chills I remember getting when I first heard Martin Luther King speak as a youngin. I remember how I marched right into the kitchen and announced to my mother and father that I was going to be a lawyer and fight for civil rights just like Dr. King. Now about 20 years later, I've fallen kind of short of that dream. Life has it's way of squaredancing with the grim reaper and getting all dizzy I guess. I've championed many causes and fought for many things which I am proud of. I was in Seattle during the WTO protests and always have a certain political slant to my lyrics and poetry. Obama seemed to echo that same feeling of aspiration, of hope, of never giving up. He seems to embody something larger than life itself. I want to believe in him, which I haven't felt for any presidential candidate in my entire life.
After I heard him speak, I realized I had one more new year's resolution to make. I promised to avoid acting out animalistically in some skewed politically jaded menagerie. I promised to attempt to keep my powers of extreme cynicism under wraps and really put forth the effort to act in juvenile naivety and reckless optimism. I just want to trust again! As dangerous as that might sound, I think it will at least do my own heart and soul some good to stop being so venemous about my outlook on the world and the times we live in. Barack did that for me. He made me take a step back and think to myself, "why not give this guy a try and start thinking giving up shouldn't be plan A when approaching American politics?!".
I hope I don't want to tear down this whole website come election day. There I go again! Let me rephrase that: "Go O for 2008!"
What a week-end for Senator Obama! Iowa, South Carolina and Oprah.
Even though my two eldest daughters are politically aware, they usually seek my advice when they vote. They would call me when they were completing their absentee ballots and we would discuss each race and candidate. But quite frankly, most of the time, I had to remind them to put a stamp on the ballot and mail it. I asked myself "What kind of activist am I if I have to work this hard to get my kids to follow through with their vote?"
My kids have attended protests with me but they didn’t necessarily like doing it. My younger ones would just die if one of their friends saw them protesting or planting signs for candidates. They "get it" but would prefer that their activism be limited to watching the Daily Show and the Colbert Report.

When my 21 year old daughter studied abroad, I took possession of her laptop and changed her homepage to rawstory.com. When she came home and took her laptop back, she said "Mom, I like Rawstory but I kind of miss Brangelina." In 2004, when she was just 18 and voting for the first time, her voter registration was illegally changed to Republican by a company hired by the RNC. We filed a complaint with the state but my daughter never returned the investigator’s phone calls. She was too busy with homework and campus life.
Yesterday, everything changed.
