For the third time, I was lucky to be able to see Barack Obama in person. Two of those events were held in my hometown, Grand Rapids Michigan. It pays to live in a battleground State. The first time I saw Obama live was his first event held in Michigan after the contentious primary. It was the John Edwards Endorsement. The second time I saw Obama live, along with Joe Biden, was in Battle Creek Michigan. I diaried that rally here. The third time was this morning in the heart of Conservative West Michigan, Grand Rapids. You couldn't tell this morning that Grand Rapids is GOP stronghold.

So I have to tell you about the conversation I just had. Joe is a Sales Rep for a vendor of ours. He's about as Conservative Republican as you get. Despite the Republican love, we've always talked politics. I have spent the last eight years arguing with him about W. He loves him! Thinks he can do no wrong, still. When McCain picked up the nomination, he was on the band wagon. Always told me that McCain is going to win the White House, blah, blah, blah.

I have a theory on why Ickes and Flourney were both so adamant at the RBC meeting on Saturday. I've watched Ickes threat at the end of the RBC meeting, and I watched Flourney (who was sitting next to him) crying while he was fulminating. I couldn't figure out why they were SO upset over 4 lousy delegates. Then it hit me. It's not about 4 delegates. It's about giving Barack ANYTHING out of Michigan.

While I understand that the media will take something and twist it to their purpose, I don't take kindly to being misrepresented. Mr. "I'm a fair broker, I call it like I see it" pissed me off. If you're such a fair broker Dan, why didn't you read what I actually wrote?

I'll be honest. If Barack Obama was a Republican I'd vote for him. I was brought up in a household that voted for the best candidate, whether Republican or Democrat, and yes I have voted for both. My Grandmother on the other hand is a staunch Democrat. She would vote for the devil himself if he were running as a Democrat. That's a problem.
