Soon after my next door neighbor Frankie, who I have known since he was 3 was off to Pennsylvania to knock on doors to get out the vote and was campaigning for Obama. Frankie is 19 years old, has taken a semester off from the American University in Washington and is still in northwestern PA as the National Obama Coordinator for Warren County. So I sat down and thought about this, if some one can inspire this generation to service and become engaged in the process it might be time to pass the baton. I know this post will probably open up a flood gate of protest, so be it. I swore I would never post in the Political but I did so have at it.
BTW did you know that William F. Buckly, son of William F Buckley, Jr. founder of the National Review has endorsed Obama?
Oh dear this is a scary post for a newbie.

Don't be scared....good to jump right in...I like your attitude and while I am an Obama voter as well....I wouldn't say it is time to pass the baton!!

There are many, many men and woman working on both campaigns here in TV's and all over the country of all ages. Hang on to the baton....vote for who you believe in....perhaps instead of passing it on....you share it!! Thanks for posting...no flood gates opened yet!!
