A great Obama donation story....
My 83-year-old Catholic, retired Air Force Colonel father-in-law made a political contribution for the first time in his life last week, and it was to OBAMA! He has always voted Democratic, so this isn't a conversion, but still, I am so proud of him! He is truly an officer and a gentleman, which McCain pretends to be, but is not, and he is very, very disgusted with McCain. My father-in-law would not lie under any circumstances. He does not identify with McCain in any way, but he expected better from him than he has seen with all the lying, and the Palin pick, so out came the checkbook!!!

2. I know what you mean about the hope.
That is why I posted it. I love these kinds of stories, too, and I didn't realize I had one in my own family.
