It happens. We've all been there, done that. On this "side of the aisle" as well.

Looking for a post partisan gridlock Administration? We hear you.

Looking for an Administration that walks its talk? Yep, we hear you.

Looking for an Administration that places results above rhetoric? We hear you.

Looking for an Administration that knows new ideas don't squander the past but build on it? We hear you.

Looking for an Administration that speaks for you, not just to you? We hear that one.

Looking for more than more of the same? We hear you, loud and clear.

Take a look. You have a choice, this time, this election.

America's more than ready.

It's OK to go for Obama.

There'll be other races, other times. We've all been there, done that. Got it.

Let's make history together. It's OK to go for Obama.

2. Thanks. It was awkward to write, given the stakes in our race. Yet I read a post earlier
that spoke to social pressures among Republicans and Independents to vote for McCain, who may be inclined to favor Obama, and it got me to thinking. If you can't get to them on the merits, make it OK. I live in a "blue pocket" in a red county, as they say, so I pictured talking to real life friends and neighbors...
