2008 election

First let's start with the fact that I'm Teddy Roosevelt Republican, an anachronism at best but nevertheless. I voted for McCain in the NY prinaries. All was good until he (or the neo-cons) picked Palin. This woman barely finished college where she got an MRS. She went to three different colleges and entered a lot of beauty contests. Her selection made me consider Obama. Like Colin Powell, I feel there are qualities in Obama that make him the best choice for this time.
