		<description><![CDATA[My 87 year old grandmother has always been a conservative person with conservative values. We usually don&#8217;t discuss politics. So I was taken somewhat off guard when she asked me in a recent phone conversation, &#8220;You are voting for the RIGHT one, aren&#8217;t you?&#8221; She&#8217;s voting for Obama. My parents have been involved in the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been swinging between gleeful excitement and quaking dread for weeks now. Tonight will be like Christmas Eve but who will come down our chimneys? Santa Barry with a big bag filled with happiness or GIANT HOPE-SUCKING BATS? I have to calm down! Luckily, volunteering has been as calming as yoga or breathing into a paper bag. On Saturday, I participated in a phone [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have been so caught up in the work and the moment, and a bit of fear of the worst, that I haven&#8217;t thought much about how amazing Tuesday could be. Will be. Today I let myself imagine it for a minute. Truly imagine it. I even closed my eyes to help forgot that I [...]]]></description>

		<title>From Tom Lincoln in Harrisburg, PA (via Facebook Group)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m voting for Obama primarily because I believe that the wealthy aren&#8217;t paying their fair share of taxes. I&#8217;m sitting firmly in the middle class and when they released Cindy McCain&#8217;s 2007 taxes last week I compared rates and found that I&#8217;m paying a higher percentage than she is. Warren Buffet is paying a significantly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From everything that I&#8217;ve seen, heard, and read, it is obvious to me that Obama &#8220;gets it.&#8221; He has a deep understand of, and commitment to, what is really important. He will bring this country together by focusing on what we can agree upon, and he will move us forward by reminding us that what [...]]]></description>

		<title>It Takes A Landslide</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I assume that most of you do not need to hear my reasons for supporting Barack Obama to have many very good ones of your own.  But as an old campaigner, let me post on a different topic:  why it will take a landslide. If we could trust that this election would be unlike those [...]]]></description>

		<title>From Langston Hughes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[O, let America be America again-- The land that never has been yet-- And yet must be--the land where every man is free. The land that's mine--the poor man's, Indian's, Negro's, ME-- Who made America, Whose sweat and blood, whose faith and pain, Whose hand at the foundry, whose plow in the rain, Must bring [...]]]></description>

		<title>From Paul in Rochester</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am for Obama because he represents the America that America used to aspire to be, that we all aspire to live in.  The country that lead by example, not by bullying.  The country that prosecuted people for water boarding, not gave them medals.  The country that uses military force as a last option, not [...]]]></description>
