    She is the Decider

    I have been considering both presidential candidates as viable options for quite a while now, but this article has cemented my conviction that I will vote for Obama. No need to recap all the things that others have already said better than I could. I just find her views on so many important things just irreconcilable with logic and reason, and this is a darn shame because I think McCain is so reasonable about so many things. But Palin cannot be in the White House - too much risk.
