Hi Monica. I know this is a bit after the fact, but I read your post and felt like I was reading myself so had to pop in and say hello. I have a post almost identical to this one…and I normally shy away from political discussion for the same reason (i.e. I get to emotional). It’s nice to know I’m not alone!

Why don’t you write up a post at your blog and I’ll link to it, that way more people will see it. I doubt many folks are reading all these comments, especially at this late hour on the 4th.

I hope you do, because I’m curious as to your reasonings.

I guess I thought it was an implied question: “How can a Christian possibly vote for Obama?” If Kristen (or you) wants to engage in dialogue on that question, I’d be happy to oblige.

Comments acting weird, let me try again…

I’ve re-read the comment thread. Satchel, I take it you are voting for Obama. I don’t think the commenter meant it as a challenge, she was just thinking out loud. And I must say, I’ve thought the same thing. Feel free to leave a response here as to why or trackback from your blog.

Gang, looks like we have a fellow believer AND Obama fan among us. If Satchel decides to leave a response about why he likes Obama, let’s be loving and respectful of each others opinions, okay?

Hey, Satchel.

Is it a question? I thought it was a statement. I don’t get Christians voting for Obama either.

[Monica, I don't want to start a hooley in your comments, but I can't let this go unchallenged.]

(What gets me are the Christians voting for Obama!)

Right here. You have a question?
