I have been pro Obama since he announced he was running for president. I saw him in person as he gave a great speech in Eldorado. I even caucused for him at one point. I was so sure I was going to vote for Obama. However, several weeks ago I had this nagging feeling that voting for Obama was not what I was supposed to do. I have spent plenty of time educating myself about Obama and McCain the last several months. Unfortunatley it is sometimes hard to determine what is fact and what is fiction. I weeded out what I could of all the political mess. I definitlely lean more towards a liberal than a conservative. But recently I have felt that God was telling me it is time to stand up for Christians and do my part and vote for someone that I know for sure believes in God. At 6:10am this morning I marched into the voting polls and voted for McCain/Palin. I felt such peace about it and know that God had a hand in my decision. I will also say though that the majority of my ballot I voted for Democrats so don't get any crazy ideas.
I will continue to pray for this election and pray that whomever becomes our next president will be a follower of Christ.

Amen, Sista!
Powerful. I agree with you 100%, and I will be continuing to pray for this country right along with you. Thank you for sharing this.
Another wasted vote. Obama is a christian too. We need to keep religon out of government anyway. Vote with your mind, not with your heart. Nothing would get done if you don't. POO PA
