She has said that if McCain gets in the view Of America in the worlds eyes would be tarnished for ever! So she said "I will hold my nose and vote for Obama!"
She was going to vote for Ron Paul but she doesn't want to take any votes away from Obama

1. That's wonderful! Good for you - I know you've been talking to her.
If everyone voting for Obama convinced one other person to vote for Obama, we would double the number of votes for Obama! That would be huge.

I convinced my sister to register to vote. She's rarely voted before. She lives in a very red county in Ohio and she finally registered to vote for Obama!

4. That is great news but
why does she feel like she must hold her nose to vote for Obama? What are the reasons why he hasn't won her totally over yet?

9. I have one of those, too, and I got him to admit
that he doesn't like ANY of the candidates very much.
That is HUGE for him. I'm working on him with this strange tool called logic.
He sends me anti-Obama stuff that just being forwarded and I reply
************** WITH LINKS******************gasp*

Everything he hits Obama with Iprove untrue and then send him links to Grampy's crap.

6. I suspect she's got a lot of company out there
mostly because Magoo is losing so many style points in these debates.

Pretty soon even people who have decided to vote for Magoo will be calling themselves undecided. Many of them will stay home.

It was obvious last night that Magoo knew he'd lost by how fast he got off that stage while Obama stayed to talk with people.

8. I don't care if she dresses in a clown suit and sings the Hokey Pokey
As long as she's not casting her ballot for McThuselah. And though she may not entirely deserve it, here go my best wishes for her to be pleasantly surprised.
