Feb. 5th, 2008 09:50 amJust in case I still have a chance of influencing any Sooper Tooseday voters, I want to officially jump on the Elljay Obama bandwagon. Please, if you're still not sure who you're voting for, vote for Obama in the Democratic primary; and if you're voting for Hillary, think long and hard about your vote before you cast it.
Rather than post my reasoning in detail, I will instead suggest you search my friendspage for 'Obama', and read the many appeals that my various elljayfriends have made.
Here's one that's well-considered and well-written, and contains a link (first link) to the argument I forwarded to my mother, which also has both of those characteristics.
And a final appeal: If you're eligible to vote for Obama today and you were planning to stay home: PLEASE VOTE! This goes double if you are young, because we need to show the US political system that the young voters -- who generally stay home in droves, but this year are coming out in support of Obama -- matter, and they had better listen to us.
