Dave Reid

After watching Obama's nomination acceptance speech tonight, I truly feel he is the candidate I want elected. I am really looking forward to the debates (and the weekly SNL special coverage!) and think that it will be a very close, well-fought race. The Republican attack that Obama doesn't have the experience to be president just doesn't fly. He's a senator. I guess that's not enough proof that he can handle responsibility and leadership? I didn't know that an AARP membership was required to be president.

Maybe for once, I want someone that will dare to take risks and make America great again. I want someone that won't support solutions to "buy more time" while we figure out what to do (cough...cough...off-shore drilling). I want someone that will say that now is the time for change.

My name is Dave Reid and I accept Barack Obama as my candidate. If you're a Republican and reading this, I hope you look forward to the debates as much as I do. This will be fun.
