Damn, I swore I wasn't going to do this again.
No more obsessing over polls, listening to the cable news show, getting butterflies every time I hear something negative about the candidate I support. 2004 was too devastating, I can't go through that kind of profound disappointment again. Besides, primaries are just the warm up, I wanted to save my big guns for the GE.

But after Obama's speech a few days ago, I am gone, baby, say a prayer for me........ Obama's the one for me.

2. Welcome with a warning.. he's a heartbreaker :-) Support him, and the MSM and
this board will break your heart. Mine is shattered, but I'm still hopeful for a better day :hi:

3. He had me at hello.
I remember seeing the DNC speech in 2004 and thinking, I am going to work on his presidential campaign someday. Someday just came sooner that I thought.

I have been supporting Obama since fairly early on, strongly once Edwards dropped out. But so far I have managed not to get really emotional about it. I would send in a few $$$ every now and then and hope for the best. But I am done for now. Purely in love and completely engaged in this race.

6. It's called leadership.
I guess even some Republicans are hungry for it.
