I heart politics, but this election cycle is increasingly on my last nerve. The Democrats keep sending me e-mail telling me to get out the vote, but I'm still undecided. I have yet to make up my mind for whom to cast my vote. I think it may come down to a coin toss in the voting booth after work. Yes. After work. I am not voting early in the morning because 1) I am still up at 1230 a.m. and 2) I don't want to be stuck in line and be late for work.
I'm 31, so I am in a key demographic that both campaigns want to woo to their side. But in reality, issue tracking websites show a 86% similarity between Clinton and Obama, so there isn't that much of a swing for swing voters.
It could all be over tomorrow night when the NC and IN primary votes are tallied, but it probably won't be. I just hope my conservative family doesn't end up voting for Hillary out of spite. I think they're scared that Obama is a Muslim, which he isn't.
As landmark candidates, they both capture my imagination. I think Obama would be more effective, but Hillary could get more older people away from McCain. Who knows. I better get my thumbs ready for flipping.

Personally (obama) I think you should (obama) vote for the candidate that gets you (obama) the most excited (obama) about voting. You are absolutely right when (obama) you say from an issues standpoint (obama) they are nearly identical.
I've already voted by I prefer to keep that to myself ;)
