From the scene at Parson Elementary School in northwest Las Vegas:
Sen. Steve Horsford--an Obama advocate--is here caucusing at Precinct 2044. The scene is confused, with long lines of people trying to sign in and determine which precinct is theirs. (Two precincts are caucusing at the school.)
At the other precinct, 2352, the demographic skews heavily toward older women, which is good for Clinton.
These caucuses clearly aren't starting at 11:30.
The Clinton campaign is highly visibile.
[The wife of Sun sports columnist Ron Kantowski just telephoned the office to say the scene at Mannion Middle School in Henderson is equally chaotic because of a large turnout. That one won't start at 11:30 either.]
I'm not trying to sway anyone's vote, because we are all going to vote the way according to our own reason. All these heated exchanges and bare naked attempts to appeal to each other's emotions for the benefit of our chosen candidate are not likely to change our minds. But with that said, and no matter if Hillary winds up destroying Barack, or if people wind up supporting him in wild numbers , Barack Obama has honestly led a remarkable political life, and has largely worked toward helping the poor, fighting corporate power, and working to improve health care.
Now, you may be skeptical of that, given all the press coverage and rumors that have been floating around, but it really is true. Read Time Magazines article - http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/...
Time's article is clear and concise, but if you'd rather read just a listing of facts on Obama, read the Wikipedia Encyclopedia entry on him: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obam...
Barack has lived a fairly noble life, as far as politicians go. So I just don't think its fair the way the media, and the Clinton's are trying destroying his image. he's lead a good life, and honestly believes in the idea that our government would better if we'd minimize bipartisanship polarization. He's one of our better politicians, and even if he doesn't win, he's still going to keep fighting for the common good.
GO OBAMA!!!!
GO OBAMA!!!!
GO OBAMA!!!!
I support you no matter what!!!
