A Mother of Five

There are various reasons why someone will support and vote the Obama/Biden ticket.  A mother of five, a life long Republican, is taking this election very seriously and she took a long, hard look at all the candidates.  She did her homework by researching each one’s position on issues and she watched both the Democratic and Republican conventions paying particular attention to the speeches presented by the nominees for Vice President and President.  A letter that she composed was posted on My2Buck$ .  This is a very thoughtful and objective letter.  It’s long and well worth reading.  John McCain and Sarah Palin are losing the moderate Republicans.

A convert… from the Heartland.

“A President that puts Barney Smith before Smith Barney.

A Place Called Hope

Former President, William Jefferson Clinton gave a fantastic speech at the 2008 Democratic Convention. He stepped up to the bat and hit a grand slam home run. Go Bill! Just think, when Barack Obama gets elected, the trolls can blame that on Bill Clinton 😆

Part 3

President Bill Clinton has to be one of the best speakers.

Fired Up and Ready to Go!

How appropriate. Here’s a picture of Governor Rendell handing Joe Biden the button that the president of the Kutztown Area Democratic Club designed for the Obama delegates from Berks County.

Governor Rendell handing Joe Biden the Fired Up and Ready to Go Button

The button looks like this except it has the Rocky Mountains in the background and the words “Fired Up and Ready to Go” on it. Yes we can and we will roast elephants on November 4, 2008.

Governor Brian Schweitzer

Loved this guy. He is so genuine.

Kerry kicked butt

Senator John Kerry gave a good speech. He showed his strength last night and took on McCain. If you missed it, then this is well worth watching. Kerry left “Mr. Nice Guy” at home last night and he brought “Mr. Kick Ass” to the podium.
