My 76 year old Grandmother in declining health is going to the polls with my 41 year old mother to vote for Obama. My 21 year old self has already submitted his absentee.
Just a little story for those who say Obama supporters are just young men.
This is in New Jersey, by the way

I'm not too optimistic about New Jersey based on today's event, but I'd like to be surprised.

Only 3,000 people were there. They've been getting over 10,000 almost everywhere else.

9. In Texas, with our open primaries 29 days away, |

I too have listened to my 70+ yo parents, solid republicans otherwise, affirm that they are crossing over and vote for Barack. Why? "He's an inspiring young man, and we haven't been inspired for such a long time."
