rock out with your barack out
i don't usually like discussing politics in a place where it is open to the world but i sincerely do not care because this presidential candidate... is worth of all the potentially negative things i will hear because of this post.
OLYMPIA — Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire endorsed Barack Obama for president Friday, providing a last-minute lift to the Illinois senator on the eve of the state's hotly contested Democratic caucuses.
Gregoire, announcing her choice in an interview with The Associated Press, said that taking sides in the close contest for the Democratic nomination was tough, given her great admiration for Sen. Hillary Clinton.
But she said Obama is a charismatic and skilled leader who can bring the country together, help solve nagging problems, and restore the country's image abroad.

the presidential caucuses are taking place this Saturday. I knew electing Gregoire had been one of the best things this state has done.
Also, way to go Bush on the economic stimulus plan. I'm not sure that it will work exactly as it is planned to work and that it will save America from the recession that is bound to happen - but it will at least make it less severe. Maybe it would have been better for the plan to have been passed before the situation was this bad, but better late than never.
Last but not least, thank you John McCain for changing your mind, although, ideally, you should have voted for this in the first place.

nominee, who had not voted Wednesday, voted for the [economic stimulus] plan Thursday."
