My Republican neighbor decided to vote OBAMA! She learned about two weeks ago that we supported him

[SeeHopeWin]

She was totally 100% stunned!!! We live in a nice neighborhood (wink). She assumed ALL people on the block must be pukes...etc. You should have seen the look on her face, hard to described, but I think she was really really freaked out! She went on and on about how much she loved Palin and she always respected McFuck. We had some small talk about politics.

She just came over, we talked a little bit about our kids...etc. Then she said: "I like your Obama yard sign." I said thanks and did not want to talk politics...She then said: "I am voting for Obama." I jumped up and down, asked her to give me a high five! And told her she is very smart person and she will never regret this vote!

I am so excited, goes to show you, that talking to your neighbors makes a difference!

She ended up telling me that Obama is winning anyway, why not be for change, change is good for everyone!

We live in Florida :)

I wonder how many people like her are going to go with the winner now...This could be big by November 4th.

1. And Obama thinks that yard signs don't start conversations. n/t

2. Did he really say that?

3. I'm in Ohio and we have had many conversations about yard signs here.

The campaign feels that money in signs is not wisely spent and wants to focus on the neighbor to neighbor theory. To me the signs starts the conversation. We ended up buying signs and donating them to our Obama office. It all worked out, but I have to say it has been a bit of a frustration. We had a week or so where the McCain signs were popping up all over. They are still up but the Obama signs are now out in full force. Go Obama! Peace, Kim

4. This is great news ! Bravo !!!

My elderly aunt lives in Florida. She said months ago that she would not vote for Obama. She was strong on her view that "he does not have the experience". Every time my mom was on the phone to her, I would mention medicare from the background. This past week she told us, she is voting for Obama. I was so happy !
