Sarah Palin needs to lay off of our Alaskian wildlife-MCSame is an arrogant idiot-Obama is going to be the next Pres-I will vote for him! If you research the issues-there's no other choice.
A friend and I sat in line since 1 o'clock yesterday to see Obama. Going there, I was a lil unsure on who I was going to vote for. We sat in line for hours, finally got inside and made it to the front. As I stood there listening to Mr. Obama, I shook my head over and over, saying "YES" "YES" "YES" finding myself LOVING everything he had said that night. In the end I stuck around to get a hand shake, and was BLOWN AWAY at how down to earth and nice he really was, and in the end I am very glad I stood for over 8hrs to see, listen, and shake Obama's hand. I have finally made my decision on who I will vote for, I am 25 years old and have NEVER voted before. But this year shall be different, and I am very confident on my choice. Thanks Obama for visiting our area. We really do need a change
Thank U so much for this telecast tonight. I am disabled and was not able to attend. Only thing, LOL was watching a woman put on her makeup and comb her hair and answering questions to someone? Your sound was low. Thank you again. :)
