There's this guy, you see...

We're about the same age. We share many of the same hopes, fears and what our future should hold. We are each others' Flickr pals. We were raised by single mothers who taught us right from wrong, who provided us with the drive to succeed in life and to do right by others and stood by us through good times and bad. Sadly, we both lost our dear Moms to cancer as well, but we both go on as living testaments to their legacies. We both often speak of our mothers' honor and life too.

I hold an extreme admiration of this man and know that we can accomplish a great deal if given the chance. There are big differences between us, but they do say opposites attract. That's where the opportunity comes to work with the differences and not let them be a hindrance. I think our strengths reside in the common traits we share. Strength and understanding can build our relationship through the years.

I'm still getting to know this man, and I really like what I have seen so far. There is one thing that I want for him though, more than anything else, and it means a great deal to me. More than you know.

I want him to be elected President tomorrow.

A great many of us share your sentiments, my friend. And I can't speak for everyone out there, but I really hope it happens for your friend.

Well, I've been kind of unsure, but since you've put a good word in for him... ;-)

Yes, indeed. We don't have a vote here, but we're relying on good people like you to deliver us from evil.
