Vote, Go, Do it!

Tomorrow I will cast my vote for the first time in my life, I have been able to vote for 10 years, but I have not. Tomorrow I will, and I am proud to say I will be voting for a man who I believe will lead my country through some difficult times. I will vote for a man who I believe offers our country the best chance at better times. A man that I believe will be a great American President.

You might wonder why I never voted before, I myself kinda wonder why now. I guess I just never cared, but I do now, and I feel this election is to important to sit out. So I, like millions of other first time voters I will be participating for the first time by voting for Obama. I have read, and listened, and watched, and then read some more. I have done my homework, but I have also prayed, and listened to my heart, all of which helped me come to the decision that I feel is best for my family, and friends. 

As for McCain, well, I think he would be OK. If he were to win, my life would go on. I respected him for many years, I think he could do the job, but I have been very disappointed in his campaign. During the primaries I really considered him a good option but unfortunately over the last few months he has shown himself to be little more then a run of the mill pol, happy to divide, and do what it takes to win. I don't know that I will ever look at him with the same respect again.

All that said, go and vote, if its for Obama, great, if its for McCain thats fine too, after all its your right.
