Super-sick Tuesday.
Tags:Today, in our quarantined little house (Simon has definitely joined Chris with the flu - I am still hanging on to health), we are definitely paying attention to what is going on around the country. Lots of checking things out online and switching back and forth between CNN and Fox News (gotta have a bit of both sides).
It is tremendously exciting to see so many people involved in the process. So many people voting rather than staying home; being a part of the entire process. Regardless of who you are supporting it is so cool to see so many people engaged rather than apathetic.
Some of you may remember that we had the opportunity to meet Barack Obama back in September. I continue to be inspired by him and am definitely supporting him (even though our primary is not until May 20th: grumble) and cheering him on today.
Many of you may have already seen this "yes we can" video. It's the words and the sentiment and the passion that I love. If you want to see the actual words from the speech go here (click the "about this video" tab).
If you have the opportunity in your state today, go vote.

As citizen I believe the right people won on Super Tuesday in both parties, however as a democrat I will support whomever the party chooses I think they are both great and either will change the country for the best, still I think she will be elected and be batter for us at the moment, maybe is just that I am a woman o that i am a New Yorker :0)

I stood in line for over 2 hours in order to caucus for Obama in KS - what a priviledge to take part in our government and know that voices are being heard.
We have the flu, too - lots of fluids & rest! ;)

Thank you for posting. I must be the only person who has not seen this as I was trying to keep anything emotional at bay, trying to make a decision purely based on logic. I finally allowed myself to watch this as I settled on Barrack. He is truly an inspiration, which is what defines a great leader!
