Obama

It's really exciting that Colin Powell has endorsed Obama and that more than $150 million was raised by the Obama campaign in September 2008. It shows that Obama's appeal is more widespread than far left liberals. Its a demonstration of the fact that while some of his political views are liberal, his temperament is conservative. It's that combination that was the basis of his appeal to me and, I think, to many others before and since.

But this excitement must lead to MORE action on the part of Obama's supporters, not less. We can't assume that because things are going so well right now, that the outcome of the election is a foregone conclusion. Do more. Until November 4th, do more. Whatever you CAN do, DO. Donate money. Donate time. Talk to people you know or don't know about Obama. Take nothing for granted and DO SOMETHING to ensure that Obama is elected President on November 4th.
