Obama or McCain?



Here in Searcy, Arkansas tons of anxiety and excitement is in the air. I'm currently at the College Church of Christ with some of the locals here and many Harding University students as we've gathered to watch this election unfold.

We have all been faithfully following this election these past months and now the moment we've all been waiting for, the moment we've all anticipated, is finally at hand.

Now, our big question is, "Who will be our next president?" Some say Obama, others say McCain but the fact remains that we will not know until this election is over.

This year, the are many "battleground states" as one unnamed source states. However, this source believes that "Ohio will be the key state in this election. It's the state that McCain has focused the most on and it will be interesting to see who wins."


Fox News also concers with this statement, "No Republican has lost Ohio and won the election". So, if you would like to follow the election this evening but, unfortunately, cannot watch the entire election...Ohio would be the state to watch in this tight race.

Either way, whether Obama or McCain wins, it will be an earth-shattering experience. If Obama wins, it will be the first time we've had a president be a different ethnicity other than Anglo-Saxon. However, if McCain wins, it will be the first time a woman will be vice president.

I certainly look forward to this election as we revolutionize America. I hope that you will stay with me this evening as we cover this revolutionary election together.
