Strumming my pain with his fingers...singing my life with his song

Obama...wow.

I'm gonna start this entry by admitting, with my head hung low and my dick tucked between my legs, that I am a reformed Republican (a liberal Republican, if there is such a thing...there is to me. Shut up). George Bush took care of that. Republican no more. There were many reasons for this. Growing up in a Communist regime being the main one, but whatever, no more. Thanks, George.

In this race I had my heart set on Hillary Clinton. I like her a great deal. That option being gone, I had already decided I would be voting for Obama.

Tonight, he bitch-slapped the Republicans into tomorrow with his speech. Eloquent. Timely. Uplifting. Beautiful. I cried a little. Shut up.

Color me an Obama supporter.

This coming election will be my fourth time voting in a Presidential election since becoming a citizen of this country. I know that many are ashamed of America right now and I can see why. I, however, cannot think that way. I love this country that adopted me and gave me a second chance at life.

Come November, I shall proudly vote for that beautiful African-American man who stirred my soul with his words tonight.

God, Allah, Buddha, or whatever higher power you believe in BLESS AMERICA and help this man make his beautiful speech a reality.
