My brother's wife emailed this to me on Sept 2:
Hey Ron,
How are you? I am sure you are busy working and then also working for the upcoming election. I don't talk politics around Russ but the question I need to know is if I voted Republican in the last election .....can I vote Democratic in this election or do I have to do something to change to Democrat in order to be able to vote.
Let me know. I hope all is well. We are doing good. I miss you and pray everything is going good for you.
I happened to be on-line so as soon as I saw it I picked up the phone.
She and her mom are really deeply religious evangelicals and have supported Bush's every move. It is different this year. The have been following Barack Obama and his mesasge with interest. Even going so far as to watch his appearances in private. They have checked out every lie pushed by the GOP and are appalled at the length and the breath of the lies they pushed. They can not understand why McCain's entire campaign is about his POW status. Where is the beef?
She said this Vice President, Sarah Palin, selection by John McCain is against everything they believe. They can not support the Republican Party anymore.
There is hope in the land, and it is the election of Barack Obama.
